This was a first time purchasing this oil or using it. I ordered specifically to use for you DIY Everything Balm (which I love for, well, everything…lol) but I am also using it for other recipes because I love it, it’s super moisturizing and absorbs quickly. I use it alone and also adding a few drops into other skin care items I make. Oh and the shipping was super fast, it stated it might take longer due to everything that’s going on now but wasn’t the case! Thanks!!

This my first timing using this oil and I must say I really have been enjoying it. It sinks right into my skin and isn’t greasy. My only complaint is I wish the name was written on the label with a permanent marker as mine has completely rubbed off. And my other products that I use less are also starting to come off. Is this a deal breaker? Absolutely not! I just wrote the names on myself with a different marker. I was going to take a picture of all my products for the giveaway but didn’t want people to question the missing product names. The 4 stairs as nothing to do with oil just the name rubbing off. I will definitly purchase again from Pronounce!

I’m so glad that you love your nourishing new tamanu oil. And I very much appreciate your feedback! I did some research and found new markers that won’t rub off as easily…yay! Again, thanks for your feedback and for being a loyal Pronounce Skincare customer. <3

The oil is very hydrating but sinks into the skin quickly and isn’t greasy. It smells a lot like walnuts and is a very good quality. I haven’t used it too yet since I just got it but it seems perfect for using in a scrub and moisturizer. Very satisfied, will order again 🙂

In your opinion, which essential oils compliment this oil? I’m making a deodorant for myself (and men in general), so wondering if there are more masculine oils or blends that you’d recommend with tamanu oil?

Hi there…great question! I find Cedarwood is a great match with rich tamanu oil and definitely appeals to men (and women, too). Tea tree is another great option to add into the mix. Sustainably sourced sandalwood EO is also a very nice addition. I hope this helps. Happy DIYing!
