Nice and light
I used this in my facial scrub because although I have dry skin, I didn't want to be left with an oily residue. It works perfectly in my end product!

My favorite facial massage oil
It accepts essential oils and doesn't distort the smell of the essential. A great medium when microneedling on a lighter needle depth.

Lovely addition to my products
This oil is a recent addition to my Kawakawa Face Oils, it adds extra skin care properties and doesn't have a scent that overpowers my oils. I like my Face Oils to just have a natural scent.
It balances well with my other ingredients.
