Starting from the glass bottle you know this is not a regular skincare product, the bottle is in a dark colored glass to protect the product inside, the pump has a lock function plus a cap to prevent any spilling, the oil has a nice medium consistency, not watery but not thick either, it spreads easily and absorbs in a matter of minutes, doesn't leave my skin looking oily but on the contrary it feels soft and hydrated. Now the scent is wonderful! I am not a person who likes the scent of lavender but this oil smells so nice! it is not overpowering at all, it makes me feel like I'm in a spa, it's so good and opens up the senses, it puts me in a good mood so that's an extra positive! It can be used during the day and night so it's safe to implement in your skincare routine. I tried finding out if this product is vegan and cruelty free but couldn't find anything here or on the box so I wonder about this, it is third party tested so who knows, I take it that since it doesn't say anywhere than it is not vegan/cruelty free which could be a deal breaker to some people.
