After reading about Morocco's "liquid gold" in The New York Times, and dealing with a stubborn case of stress-induced adult acne, I decided to give Argan Oil a try. I've been using Josie Maran's Argan Oil (I chose it because it was the most pure of the advertised versions out there) for two months now, and it really is an amazing product. My acne has all but disappeared, and the spots that were left from the acne have faded nicely. I've even been complimented on my "glowing skin" recently -- never had that happen before! It's not an instantaneous fix, but I noticed differences in less that a week. I use one-two drops per each side of my face, plus a little extra under the eyes. It lasts a long time; I'm probably not even a quarter of the way into my bottle yet -- so the $48.00 starts to look like a bargain... If you've been scared to use oil on your face, this just might convert you. I'm converted -- I got rid of acne with oil, go figure!

This stuff isn't going anywhere, which can be a really good thing at times (think socks at bedtime -- really helps the dry feet). I wouldn't use this on my hands on a regular basis, though; best for emergency dryness.

I use this on my hands -- very moisturizing, though a little sticky to the touch. The smell is very "green," almost lime-scented. The smell dissipates after a while, but it was a little strong for my tastes. Appreciate the all-natural factor though.

Leaves my hair clean without being squeaky clean. Smells *amazing* -- especially first thing in the morning. So in love I just stepped up the big bottle -- worth the commitment!

I'm a lotion junkie, but big on all-natural: the Guava Body Butter is AMAZING. Smells so good (even to my chemical-sensitive husband) and keeps me moisturized far longer than other lotions I've tried. I'm a user for good -- worth the price (maybe just make sure you like the smell first).

This is delightful and I really love the all-natural formula. My only complaint is that it's a lot of money for not a lot of product (one tube barely lasted me a month, though I am a "heavy user.") Yummy balm, I just need to make more money!

Big fan of Burt's Bees overall, luv the original balm. But this smells and tastes so artificial -- which it is. Doesn't qualify under Whole Foods new beauty standards for natural.

This goes on very smooth with a light vanilla scent (not much taste, which is fine by me). With all the organic oils, it's very moisturizing though not overly rich. I'm trying to find a paraben free lip balm to replace one of my super-rich (but chemically laden) current nighttime balms. This one is as close as I've found so far. And the price is reasonable in comparison to so many other brands.
