My Review:
I have tried facial oil like rosehip oil, chia seeds oil, and tamanu oil. And for me, Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil is the best oil I have ever tried.

I always use facial oil after I apply my toner when my face is still wet I pat in the Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil. It does not feel sticky at all, and it does not have a fishy smell like rosehip oil and chia seeds oil. I usually use 3 to 4 drops of oil for the face and neck. The Drunk Elephant Marula Oil also gets along well with all of my skincare routines.
I always purchase the 15 ml version which can last up to 6 months. They have an 8 ml traveling size, but you could take the 15 ml bottle for traveling as it is pretty compact. When I travel during winter and took 8 ml, I running out so fast since I like to use more face oil during the winter to give my skin intense moisture. I would recommend this to any skin type. The formula of the oil is mild that it can be suitable for people with sensitive skin.

When my skin is super dry after laser treatment, this The Drunk Elephant Marula Oil will help to soothe my skin. even when my skin is having a breakout, the marula oils calms it down.

I never tried another marula oil product beside the Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil, since I already love it so much. The only downside of the Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil is the price, it is an expensive product. However, I would repurchase it over and over again. I would say it is worth every penny. Although I have read that the ordinary marula oil is the dupe of Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil, I do not think it feels the same. But if you are in budget, the ordinary might be another option for you. Let me know what you think about marula oil, have you tried another brand?
