Reviews

Good after baths

"This works really well with my irritation I notice a difference adding this"

— Nakiya F. (5/5)

Used in Facial Cream

"I like this oil, it goes on smooth and absorbs into the skin very well. But it has a bad smell . The scent reminds me of a stink bug scent. While I was using it in my face cream the smell was to strong, I like unscented face creams ,but because of strong smell I had to use rosewater in my batch. Unfortunately the oil smell was too strong and even using the rose water didn't help , So I made the batch into body lotion, instead of a face cream with a rose essential oil."

A Happy Accident

"Sometimes I jump the gun and buy something before actually double checking. This was the case with the camelina. I meant to buy Camellia oil. Oh well. This oil was absolutely awesome! I worked it into several products, and even at the low percentages that it was incorporated, it really improved the over all feeling, and I received MANY comments about how happy customers were with how their skin felt. My only complaint is that it had a kind of funny smell. But many oils have a smell, and it disappeared once I put it in a product, even in an unscented cucumber lotion!"

— Meredith (4/5)

Q&A

I made the Soothing& Protecting Face cream , I didn't like the Camelia oil scent in the face cream in this recipe Is there another oil that I can use in this face cream instead of the Camelina oil? I do not like the strong scent in my face creams . I make my face creams unscented ,the smell of this oil comes through in my cream. I love the recipe ,but not the oil ! Thank You: Yes you can sub with Argan or Jojoba Oil Golden
Is this oil unrefined?: This is Natural-Unrefined.
I ordered a 16 oz bottle and when I opened I realized it was a transperent oil, very liquid, like water, is that normal? In the picture it seems to be color gold: Please email or call us during business hours so we can troubleshoot 800-359-0944.
Can this oil be mixed other carrier oils such as jojoba oil, grapeseed oil and used as an infusion with herbs? Thank you.: Yes, this will mix with other carrier oils and can be used to make infusions with herbs.
Is there a substitute for this to use in making cuticle oil in roller ball bottles?: You can substitute Camelina for Aloe Vera Oil, Evening Primrose, Grape Seed or any other carrier oil you might have.
