Am I missing something?
I had high expectations for this oil. I planned to use it as a moisturizer. I have used it for about a month and here is what I have found.
1) In the reviews lots of people have said it smells nutty/earthy. I disagree. I think it smells like fish. I really can’t stand the smell at all. It is nauseating, and the smell doesn’t go away. Literally at the end of the day I would still be smelling myself, and hating it.
2) In terms of a moisturizer this hemp oils is great! It sinks in fast and really does wonders for your skin. Also, it doesn’t make your skin shinny, which is awesome.
3) Also, make sure you realize that this oil needs to be refrigerated. If you plan on using it as lotion/moisturizer you will always need to grab it from the fridge, which is inconvenient when you are just getting out of the shower.
Anyways, the moisturizing properties of this oil are out of this world. Just realize that it doesn’t smell good, and using it can be inconvenient.
