Excellent for my face!
It is a wonderful addition to my sun balm. I like the cent and the feel.
My face feels soft and looks flawless, I use this oil to create the Silky Marula and Raspberry Serum recipe. This oil combination doesn't make my face greasy at all. I don't think I'll ever go back to using store bought moisturisers and serums, the difference is visible.

I am loving how this oil makes my skin feel and look
Of all the oils I've bought (and it's a lot!!) this red raspberry oil is the most exceptional of all. Thick and luscious is the best way to describe it. Instant difference in my skin. Mixed with Apricot kernel oil (carrier), lavendar oil, helichrysum and german chamomile and in 24 hours the psoriasis on my forehead has healed by 90%! After eight years of struggling with the same spot I have finally found something that heals it. Thank you also to Essentially Natural for the apricot kernel oil sample - it provided a fabulous base. As always, excellent service, excellent products and excellent delivery.
This is the first time I've used this oil on its own & I absolutely love it!! And nxt time will get a much bigger bottle. And your service is as always just the best. So friendly, quick & efficient - really appreciate it & such a pleasure buying from you!
So glad I discovered this oil!
I mainly purchased it for sun protection!
I works like a bom and doesn't leave my skin feeling oily!
My package arrived super fast as well!
Super amazing service and I always receive a little gift.
This is my favourite online shop!
Does wonders for your skin and add also some sun protection..5 stars..
So glad I discovered this oil! And my package arrived one day after placing the order. Super amazing service and I always receive a little gift. This is my favourite online shop!
Made this part of my daily anti-aging care routine. Dropped some in my lip balm, too and love the taste!
Using this oil in a sunscreen and a daily moisturiser for 2 years now without using any other chemical based sun protection.
Good service arrived early. I use it for making oil serums and for my antiagind recipe
The Raspberry seed oil has changed the game for my skin and this is the second time I have repurchased. Essentially Natural provided an incredible service - fast, reliable and very efficient service.
The price is also better than what I could find anywhere else online.
It works great on the skin.
I'm quite skeptical on whether I got the legit oil. I see people raving about how great it smells and other descriptions, however what I got looks and smells like extra virgin olive oil.
Essentially Natural Red Raspberry Seed Oil
I use this as one of the oils in my anti-ageing moisturizer. Wonderful for the skin.
Great smelling and wonderful in my diy face serum
Five Stars!
I used this to make a really great sun-protecting lip butter.
Melt 1.5 teaspoons of avo butter in a double-boiler, then mix in 1.5 teaspoons of hazelnut/coconut oil and 6 drops of raspberry oil. Pour it into a container and let it set.
Five Stars
Works miracles on wrinkles
good
Bought this to try as a special treat to apply around my eyes and most wrinkly areas. Smells nice and I'm hoping it will have a serum effect and work a little magic over time.
STUNNING oil! I suffer with adult acne and have found this oil to be WONDERFULLY HEALING and has been much more beneficial to my skin than I found Rosehip oil to be. It's all I use now. THANK YOU!
Great stuff - I blend it with rosehip and pomegranate oil as moisteriser
