Goodness Certified Organic Chia Seed Oil Review

I scored this from Cleo for free!!

Sadly I'm allergic to it though! I got all itchy & red immediately after putting it on my face.

It comes in a Glass bottle with a dropper in the lid.

I found I needed quite a few drops to cover my whole face but I think this would last quite a while still.

Warehouse had a clearance of this oil . Checked the expiry date on it, Was sweet so I decided to make the purchase. I remember this oil coming out last year or the year before and it definately took everyone's interest away from the rosehip oil. My skin is dry especially around my nose area. I'm constantly searching for great hydration.

The bottle it comes in this deep brown shaded glass. Feel like good quality. Labelling is clear easy to read. The consistency of the oil is quite light. It doesn't seem to have any scent in it.

When I apply this I like to cleanse and tone beforehand. I use serum on its own as a night treatment to see if I could see any changes solely on its own on my skin.

I've been using this religiously every night for the last few weeks. I was disappointed with it. It was far too light for my dessert dry skin. It didn't do anything to treat my dry skin on my nose. I also gave it a try mixed in with my foundation and it did an ok job. I havent noticed any difference to the pigmentation on my skin either.

The positives for me is that it's priced affordably for anyone to buy. I think it could be even cheaper. I still love rosehip oil. This one doesn't come close to it. I wanted to love it like everyone before me but it didn't work. I wont be repurchasing it.

This oil is probably a nicer product than I'm about to give it credit for.

The packaging is cute and easy to use. The dropper is fantastic for controlling amounts, and keeping it hygienic.

The oil isn't greasy, and absorbs well.

I just hate the smell and can't stand to have it on my skin. I put it on and washed it straight off. Not sure what it is, but there are a few products from this company that get me like that.

A shame.

Disappointed by this. I love natural products and this product was hyped up so much! Smells weird and is sticky, no change in my skin

I have been using rose hip oil and thought it would be nice to try something different and I just can't seem to get past the packaging on goodness products as I think it's just so cute and pretty.

Back to the oil - normal dropper bottle full of golden goodness I've read some of the review so was excited to give it a go but I'm not to sure if I would use this again as I found it made my skin feel hot and itchy for a while, I didn't find it absorbed into my skin very well either.

I am a HUGE fan of Goodness. I've bought the day/night cream repeatedly, as I have the cleanser and toner. However, the chia seed oil? It's a pass.

I bought the travel kit as I was going to be away a bit over the last few months and didn't want to bring all my full size products.

I had been keen to try the oil, but I'm glad I got to try the travel size version as I can honestly say that while it was hydrating and didn't break me out, the scent is not my favourite. 12 hours after using it I can still smell it, and it's very earthy and strong, and no matter how much I use it I can't get used to it.

I'll stick to the rest of the range, but this isn't for me, and I can't see myself recommending this particular product to a friend (despite telling friends the rest of the range is amazing) as the scent's too overwhelming.

I was sent this as part of a giveaway. I think it was a magazine that was giving out about 2000 of these. When I signed up, I was just thinking it would be a little sample but I was lucky enough to get the full 20ml bottle size.

This comes in a standard oil bottle with the dropper in it so you can easily get the small amount that you need out without waste. The bottle is made of dark glass and with the silver lid and purple packaging, I think it looks really appealing and more expensive than what it actually is.

I love facial oils but my experience so far has only been with jojoba and rosehip oils. Chia seed oil to me is a much lighter version of oil. I find this sinks into my skin very quickly and although it does feel hydrating, it isn't as hydrating as the other oils I have used. I do have very dry skin so I prefer the more hydrating options but it is nice to be able to apply this and then not have to wait a long time before applying moisteriser and makeup. I would imagine this would be the perfect oil for more normal and oily skin types as I think those skin types would benefit much more from the lighter hydration.

I personally like to use 5 drops of this. I find this covers my face and neck pretty adequately without being overly greasy. I've been using this for a couple of months and have used just over half the bottle up with just applying this once a day in the morning. Even though this is only a small bottle, it will last a long time so I feel like it's good value for money.

I probably won't specifically go out and buy this once I'm done but I would use it again if it was in a beauty box or giveaway. But that really is because of my dry skin, not because I think it's a bad oil so I would recommend it to a friend who didn't share my skin type.

So Ive been using the amazing range of the roseships oil and decided to give this product a go to see if there was much of a difference between the different oils. I absolutely loved the cute sized jar it came in, the oil itself has a very soft fragrance, I did feel it took a while to rub in as I had to put more drops onto skin to get a all over coverage. it was kind of drying and didnt absorb into skin as fast as I would have liked it too.

I have quite dry skin and Found that this oil was not moisturising enough on its own, but mixed with my moisturiser, it was beyter. The smell is just a plain oil smell which i don't mind and the texture was lovely and smooth. I'm not sure if it was the culprit, however the few times i did add this to my moisturiser, I woke up with puffy under eyes - but oils can do . Overall it was fine, but nothing amazing for my skin. I know its been amazing on other people i know, but they have more oily/combo skin.

I bought a travel pack of Goodness products a while ago, as I wanted to try the products before I committed to full-sized products. It came with a generously-sized sample bottle of Chia Seed Oil.

This oil is a nice, light, easily absorbed oil. After applying my skin feels soft and smooth. A little goes a long way, as you only need a few drops for your face and neck.

In fact, sometimes the hydration provided was a little too much - while using this oil my skin started breaking out and I had to use it less often.

I'm a big believer in facial oils. While I'm not sure I love this one enough to drag me away from my first love, Rosehip Oil, if you have tried a few facial oils and have yet to find one that you love - or if you've finished your Rosehip Oil and want to try something different - give this one a chance.
