what is the difference between the oil and cream? Is there an advantage to one over the other?

The cream has organic beeswax added to the oil. It's to be used less often than the oil, and it helps seal the wood.

The only diference is one is oily and the other is in cream. I like both of them.

In my opinion - the oil (a liquid) is a more deep penetrating treatment, while the cream (pasty) acts more like a finishing treatment. I use both, the oil once a month, and the cream every other month. In combination I believe I'm giving the wood the best conditioning that I can.

I don't know. I use the oil, because that seems more appropriate for butcher block that is used for cooking.

I use both. Oil first and then cream. Oil penetrates deep into the wood and the cream acts like a top coat.

I understand the oil is like the shampoo and extends the life of the cutting boards. The cream is like the conditioner and seals the top coat of the wood surface. I use it faithfully. My cutting boards are still beautiful. Hope this helps.

Oil moistens and the cream seals in that moisture from the oil. Both are important and work well together.

We've only used the emu oil, so not sure. The oil is pure emu oil - don't know if the cream is.

This cream has lots of different oils in it. Oils generally do not need refrigerated. The main concern with oils is oxidation. To prevent oxidation keep the product tightly closed and in a dark place. However, when the cream is cold the coldness of the cream can help reduce puffiness.

The day cream feels lighter ... not as rich in oils. The night cream, while not heavy, is richer than the day cream. In the winter, I use the night cream for both night and day protection. I live in the deep south and in the summer the day cream is light enough to wear in high humidity.

There should be no problem using both, you don't have to but you can. As Davina said, it depends on how much you need. It has different benefits to skin. Witch hazel extract & L-Arginine are just some of the other ingredientn in HA serum while Firming cream has hexapeptide-8 and other high end ingredients. I will also go with what Susan said, let it dry first. It shouldn't take that long for your skin to absorb the product since it's a serum, it has smaller molecule than cream/lotion.

The cream is more moisturizing than the serum. The serum is good for the daytime. Honestly, I can use this particular cream even during the day, though, because it is not greasy and doesn't make my face shiny at all! Normally, I prefer serums and lotions over creams, but I *love* this one. Hope this helps!

oh I have no idea - I'm a hand cream maker. Since the oil is rather on the warm side I'd say that would work well. I just found that putting it in hand cream burned.

It all depends upon which ingredients you use - low fat milk versus heavy cream.

As far as hold I would say they are very similar. However, I find that the cream leaves less of a gel cast than the gel (which is good on days that I have to leave home with a wet head). In addition to that, I find the cream to be more hydrating than the light defining gel. The cream gives me chinkier curls while the gel often causes me to have skinny/stringy curls. Lastly, the cream and the gel smell differently. If you are familiar with this line, the cream smells like their Set It Free (some describe it as smelling like skitles) while the gel has their signiture (faint) lemongrass smell; it's is a very clean fresh sent. I hope this is helpful.

I have only used the top oil. I don't know if there is a difference. I have had no problems with the top oil thought. I did a job with a product called paper stone and that is what they recommended to use as a top coat.

The crème is thicker in texture & makes the skin feel softer (but it is not greasy). The lotion is thinner & would probably be better under makeup. I personally like the crème - it smells & feels wonderful. The lotion does not make the skin feel as soft but is good if you're looking to stretch the dollar. It will last longer in the bottle.

The balm is thicker than the cream - I use the balm in the winter to help with dried out, chapped winter skin - still the same benefits as the cream, just more moisturizing. If you have super dry skin then the balm might be better for you - but if you have normal/oily skin like I do, the cream works better in warmer weather.

I have used both and there appears to be no difference. I will continue to use this product as I said, it does help.

Both are good. The lotion is easier to put on in a hurry, but the body butter is so luxurious. It's perfect for when you want to lather on something thick and healing after a shave or exfoliating to keep things smooth.

Did you read the manual? There is a fill for both. Engine oil is to keep the engine lubricated. Gasoline is to run the engine. Same as a car engine for example

Yes I have for both. I like it n it's reasonably priced. I also add other oils in.

The day cream is thinner (more aimed toward moisturizing with makeup layered on top, for a light coverage), While the night cream has a thicker consistency providing moisture and softness even while sweating and rubbing against your pillows at night. I use both the day and night cream and found they work best together..Hope this helps!
