Nature's Oils like Sunflower, Emu, Tea Tree,etc.(suggest, recommend, etc.)

I have tried sunflower oil from a Philippine brand called "Human Heart Nature"(this is not a paid advertisement and I'm not selling anything! I'm not even a dealer of this brand! Anyway, they sell organic skincare products and cosmetics.). It's called Sunflower Beauty Oil and I love that it's all natural and it's ONLY sunflower oil with no extra ingredients like parabens, etc. I also love that it's cheap(only 100php = 2 Dollars!) for a 50ml bottle yet a little drop goes a long way! It lightened my acne scars a bit! And most of all, I like that it has no greasy feel when applied on the skin, it only feels like a regular moisturizer and doesn't clog pores!

I am a lover of natural oils for skin and hair care. I mostly use olive oil because it's cheap, readily available and gets the job done. I use it on my hair, my face, to remove eye make-up, on my skin. I use it to make my own hair and face masks, body scrubs, etc.

I like to add/use other oils too---mostly coconut oil for skin care and almond or jojoba oil for hair care. I haven't ever used sunflower oil so I'm not sure how it compares.

I love organic, clear jojoba oil. I use it as moisturizer morning and night. A few drops is enough for my whole face and neck. Jojoba oil most closely resembles the skins natural sebum too, so it actually helps my skin to not be oily.

I tend to use mainly EV Olive Oil for all of my needs.

I also use Bio Oil, excpet it is not "natural" it is a commercial mix.

Golden jojoba oil mixed with unrefined evening primrose oil is AMAZING! I also like hemp seed oil, sweet almond oil and macadamia nut oils for my creams and lotions. I use EV olive oil primarily for making soaps and oil hair masks. Emu oil kinda smells like chicken fat. I can't really get the nerve to put it on my face. I have added it to a batch of black soap I made that lots of my friends loved - I loved it too.

I mostly use sweet almond oil on my face, to remove makeup like mineral or HD or waterproof (all the annoying stuff lol), it's really ideal with a bit of warm water. I also like to use camellia oil.

On my body i favor coconut, monoÃ¯, macadamia (my winter go-to remedy for dry skin).

I like evening primerose as a supplement or on my hair, i don't think i tried it on my face.

Borrachio oil is heaven for dry skin, but its scent is not pleasant so i highly recommend you swallow it under the form of capsules. Warning : it takes time to really make an effect on your skin's state, 2-3 months at least.

Another oil i like for my body, especially if you have skin disorders like eczema or sunburns, is tamanu oil (calophyllum inophyllum, it comes from Polynesia). It doesn't smell nice and it's a bit too thick for my liking but it gets the job done.
