Used in conjunction with the face moisturiser smells amazing and both give a glow to the face. Been using this around a month. Amazing company love the ethos behind the brand and keep adding additional products. Thank you Hollie :)

I'm 60 and am always out and about in the sunshine (natural vitamin D) - when we get it here in the UK - and this Sacred Skin Face Oil appeals to me because of its ingredients - chiefly the red raspberry seed oil (Rubus idaeus). What you need to know about red raspberry seed oil is that it’s a natural sunscreen. It absorbs damaging UVA and UVB rays, preventing them from reaching your skin and causing inflammation and sun damage. Some studies have shown that, on its own, red raspberry seed oil has an SPF of between 28 and 50 for UVA rays and up to SPF 8 for UVB rays. It only gets better from there. Red raspberry seed oil has more anti-inflammatory properties than avocado, grapeseed or hazelnut oil, with its high dose of alpha linoleic acid. This makes it really useful for treating eczema, psoriasis, dandruff and other irritated skin and scalp conditions. It soothes, softens and hydrates, giving skin what it needs to repair itself and heal. The oil is an emollient, meaning it helps skin retain moisture. It also creates a lipid barrier on skin, sealing in water and nutrients, and protecting skin from environmental damage. It keeps skin conditioned and lubricated, which results in smoother, softer skin. Red raspberry seed oil contains an exceptionally high proportion of essential fatty acids (EFAs) like omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. In general, most oils are comprised of between 50 and 60 percent EFAs, but red raspberry seed oil contains up to 83 percent EFAs. This not only boosts skin’s ability to regenerate, it also helps skin hold onto moisture, keeping it smooth and plump and helping to reduce signs of aging, like sagging skin and fine lines and wrinkles. The vitamin E and vitamin A in red raspberry seed oil also target signs of aging. They prevent free radical damage to skin, which helps reduce or eliminate loss of elasticity, wrinkles and age spots or sun damage. And its benefits don’t stop at healing and toning skin: Red raspberry seed oil actually contributes to the stability of your skincare products. It contains a high amount of phospholipids, making it a very dependable, stable ingredient, and giving it a long shelf life (unlike other oils, which can go rancid quickly). Adding it to a combination of other carrier oils can help skin and body care last longer. In Sweet Bee Sacred Skin Face Oil, red raspberry seed oil combines with a slew of other good-for-your-skin oils to bring out the best in your skin. It enhances your natural glow to reveal skin you’ll be content with and proud of. I've been using this Sacred Skin Face Oil for a week now and really like it. I have dry, sensitive skin and can suffer from hormonal breakouts and this oil delivers what it says it will. I can't smell the frankinscense or neroli but it does have a very faint and pleasant aroma. Would definitely recommend it to sun worshipers like myself.

I like this product because it is organic, easy to use and makes my skin feel soft.

The Sweet Bee Sacred Skin Face Oil comes in a glass bottle with a pipette for easy dispensing. I like my skincare products in glass bottles rather than plastic pots and tubes, as I feel this gives the products a more premium look and feel. The product is handmade in Frome, UK, and has a best before date of June 2025, so 11 months as of when I received it. It has a lovely scent to it that isn't overpowering. I like it, but I'm guessing that it may not be to everyone's taste. The oil is yellow in colour and resembles olive oil. There are no usage directions on the bottle, so the user can just apply it as and when they feel it's needed. I find that I only require a couple of drops per application. The oil absorbs nicely into my skin and leaves it feeling super hydrated. I like to use it as a skin hydrating booster during the day (on days I'm not wearing makeup) and I also like to apply it at night before bedtime to get my skin a hydration boost while sleeping. I don't have sensitive skin so this is something I personally do not need to consider when selecting skincare products, but suffice to say I've had no issues using it. All in all, I really like the oil.

This 30ml bottle feels like a very generous amount for the price. A small amount of oil goes a very long way. The oil has a beautifully heady spicy scent. It’s divine. But it doesn’t linger strongly on the skin. I find it gives my skin a nice even tone too. I am impressed at the simplicity of how this arrived – in brown, textured, thick paper. No glossy card or plastic in sight. I would like to see a little more information on Sweet Bee as this organic product is fab. They should make use of the Amazon product page to promote themselves. I am very happy to recommend this face oil.

I have never used facial oil before and I was a bit dubious about it being very oily and greasy. It is a fairly large bottle (30ml) and has a glass dropper. It is going to last me ages and ages. I used just two drops on my face and that was sufficient for my whole face (avoiding my eyes). I massaged it in, but it did feel rather oily (and I was expecting that as it is facial oil!!), so I put my normal moisturiser on top which took away the residue, and I went to bed. My skin was nice and hydrated the next morning and I will keep using it. The only issue I don't like is that it does go into my hair overnight as I toss and turn, but that will be true of all facial oils, and so in future I may put it on at the start of an evening and wash it off before going to bed. I will experiment in all different ways as I do love the oil and it does help to hydrate and soften my skin. The aroma when you put it on is gorgeous - I think the frankincense scent really comes through. Lovely, organic and totally natural - what's not to love!

I got the Sweet Bee Sacred Skin Facial Skin Oil as I'm trying to create a little pampering evening skincare routine and absolutely love the scent of Neroli. The oil arrives in a glass bottle wrapped in protective paper and has a dropper for application. I have quite sensitive skin and rosacea so did a little patch test beforehand, as I didn't have any irritation or redness I felt comfortable about applying the oil to the rest of my face. I started 5 drops which I warmed between my hands and then massaged the oil onto my face and neck, I did need a couple more drops for my décolletage as the oil is quite quickly absorbed, The scent is absolutely lovely, it's not overpowering at all and fades to a subtle hint after application. I really liked that the oil didn't sit on top of my skin and didn't leave any kind of "greasy" feeling which I've had with other facial oils. It sank straight in and left my skin feeling intensely moisturised and really soft. I would absolutely recommend the Sweet Bee Sacred Skin Face Oil as it's lovely, the scent is beautiful and at the time of writing this review on 14/07/2024 the current price of £15.99 for 30ml is very reasonable. It would make a fantastic gift for anyone and a really nice little pampering treat for yourself!
