Moisturizing Effect

Pros:

  • "This oil is wonderful for moisturizing my face and it doesn't sit on your skin like most oils, it really soaks in."
  • "Keeps my skin moisturized in the Canadian winter."
  • "Comparable to expensive oils. I use this nightly after I wash and tone. By morning my skin has completely absorbed oil and is left soft and moisturized."
  • "I use this every morning and evening as a moisturizer. It works amazingly."
  • "This non-greasy, easily absorbable oil feels good going on, absorbs very quickly and seems to help keep my skin soft."
  • "I use this right after I shower and after I wash my face in the morning and it makes my skin feel amazing all day."
  • "It’s light weight but leaves my face moisturized all day, even with this dry winter weather."

Cons:

  • "It works okay but leaves my forehead feeling oily in the morning even when I only use a drop or two."
  • "While I do feel moisturized it made me break out horribly."
  • "It takes about an hour to for my skin to fully absorb the oil, so that's why I prefer to use it during the night instead of morning."
  • "It also doesn’t soak into my skin unless I spend 5 minutes massaging and patting it into my face which is annoying."
  • "This oil did not sink in my skin and sat on the top similar to a baby oil."
  • "Moisturizing effects only last for a short duration."
  • "It just did not give me the type of moisturizing I was looking for."

Scent

Pros:

  • "It has a very-very light scent which makes it pleasant to apply."
  • "The oil has a pleasant smell."
  • "The rosehip seed oil has a pleasant smell."
  • "The scent is faint and does not last when you apply it to your skin."
  • "No funny smell, just a very light hint of rose but nothing 'fragranced' or overpowering."
  • "It has a pleasant nutty smell like a lot of facial oils."
  • "The scent is very light."

Cons:

  • "The only negative( and it’s not a big deal) is the smell. It’s earthy but you get used to it."
  • "It is great for making my skin more supple but I wasn't a huge fan of the scent."
  • "I thought it would smell like roses but it smelled kinda fishy."
  • "Upon opening this oil for the first time I was hit in the face with this horrible fishy smell."
  • "This appears to be a nice, moisturizing oil, however, it smells horrible and rancid."
  • "Only complaint is that it smells exactly like a stink bug lol."
  • "The scent is not pleasant at all."

Packaging and Application

Pros:

  • "Very nice product. Came packaged well and very quickly."
  • "Big fan of the dropper and that it's organic."
  • "Viva Naturals customer service was absolutely amazing!! They were extremely responsive and rectified the issue immediately and without delay."
  • "The dropper is very nice, you can feel the dropper suction and hold the oil in the dropper."
  • "The glass bottle comes with a dropper to dispense the product and you only need two drops to cover your entire face."
  • "The dropper works well and it arrives safety sealed in several places which I love."
  • "The packaging is perfect. Nicely wrapped, sturdy box."

Cons:

  • "Wish there wasn't an extra cap. Waste of plastic."
  • "The dropper is a little bit on the cheap side, using it can create a bit of a mess as it doesn’t hold the oil very well. But the oil comes with a cap so you don’t have to use the dropper."
  • "The included dropper was shattered when I received it but I have already tossed the box so I can’t return."
  • "The package came in a large package, even though it was overly huge for just a tiny box."
  • "Too bad I spilled half the bottle the first time I used it."
  • "However, rosehip oil is known for having a short shelf-life and my 1 oz bottle was no exception. My oil went rancid in a month and a half so I refrained from using it."
  • "Please provide more detailed instructions on how to use your product; otherwise it can cause problems for the people who use it."
