I do by just using straight on my face and on my hands before bed. It has made a lot of difference I think on how my face and hands feel.

Try applying it at night, especially at the wrinkle areas. Rub it in with a motion from the face to the side or back of head. Works wonders!

Its great to use on face and body. The only thing it is thick so I recommend using a little at a time. It has made my skin very soft and helps with scaring on the skin. I use it with my other facial creams abs lotions but it can be used on its own. I had extremely bad allergies with my eyes this year and my eye lids were horrible I used this and it helped a lot and even helped with dark circles after a few weeks of continuous use.

No it is oil...pure vitamin e oil. Great to use on your lips or dry patches. I use it twice a day or more in the winter on my lips to moisturize. I will use them elsewhere where you need some immediate moisture.

I would say it's totally ok to use as a daily moisturizer. A little goes a long way too!

I bought this because I read that jojoba oil has the closest composition to the natural oils in your skin. I love it! I don't use it in my hair too much bc it's too oily for that. Coconut oil us better for my hair. But for my face, this is the best. However, if you plan to wear make up over it, use a good primer.

I use it undiluted with no ill effects, however some with sensitive skin may want to dilute it in either olive oil or jojoba oil. When I made my own from essential oils, I did dilute with jojoba oil. I would just experiment with the dilution ratio.

I mixed it with rosehip oil and put it directly on my face. I think you can mix it with any oil or cream. It's amazing, I've already used up that bottle and am buying another.

I have never used it on my face because I have oily skin. I do love it for the rest of my body though. If you haven't tried it you should do so. It's great especially in the winter.

I use it for my face too. But I guess it depends on how sensitive your skin is :)

Yes it is, almost like a cream serum not oil, you do want a moisturizer to follow. I use this at night after washing then the moisturizer, morning time just the moisturizer and sun screen. I hope you will enjoy it as well :)

I use this product everyday and love it. It works as a moisturizer for me, I put this product on in the morning and that's all I use under my makeup. I am sure everyone's skin responds differently but it is certainly worth a try.

I don't believe this alone would replace your moisturizer. I apply it first and then apply my moisturizer (which is a home recipe of good organic oils.) Astringent properties? I would say it's more of a pH balancer.

I am an aesthetician "skin care technitian" this is a great quality oil you will not regret. Not exactly sure what you are using it for but, it is of good quality.

i have used it, and i much prefer the avocado oil as a body moisturizer. The main reason why is b/c i know exactly what is in avocado oil and since i usually mix it with other natural oils. The consistency is a little heavier in my opinion and it also contains mineral oil and other un-needed ingredients. If you do not want the oil to be heavier than the neutragena one, i would highly recommend to mix it half and half with grapeseed oil. I personally love that concoction, it is very moisturizing and a great anti aging blend for your skin. Good luck :)

I've used it on my face (including the eye area) as a moisturiser. However, for daily use I tend to use a lighter weight Aveeno product. As an eye cream I use an Avene product which is very soothing as well as moisturising. Good luck.

I use coconut oil for everything, but some people do have irritation with using it as a moisturizer, especially on the face. I normally add it to shea butter, but you definitely can use it alone as a moisturizer. Try it on a little area first for 24 hours and see how it goes. Also, as another reviewer said- a little goes a long way so start out with a small amount and give it time to soak in. It does have "sunscreen-like" properties, but nothing strong enough to really protect you from the sun.

I don't know how others use it, but i use it as a facial moisturizer--just a few drops. I also use it on the ends of my hair. I mix it with some shea butter and use it as an eye cream. It's versatile.
