Finally got around to doing a review for the Skinfood Black Pomegranate Oil!
My skin is fairly dry around my cheeks and mouth, and especially in winter time, my regular face cream just doesn't provide enough moisture.
I got this oil around April, and have been using it since. It's supposed to be used as a final step to trap in all the moisture from your lotion and creams.
The packaging is really pretty =w= The box is pretty to look at, and the bottle looks pretty darn cute sitting on my bench top.
The bottle is glass, so it's really sturdy, but be careful not to drop it!
The oil is dispensed from a dropper. It's easy to use and control (although, when is an dropper not easy to use..?)
The oil itself is clear; all the cute red pink colour is just the glass bottle. It has a light scent that disappears quickly.
The oil isn't very thick, and disappears into the skin quickly. However, it leaves the skin soft and moisturised for hours after.
This oil is probably best for people with normal to dry (but not extremely dry) skin, that might have slightly oilier areas, as it's good with the drier areas, and not overly oily in the oilier areas.

Pros:
☺Light weight and absorbs quickly
☺Moisturising (I don't wake up with my skin feeling tight :D)
☺Packaging is cute and sturdy
☺Needs only a maximum of four drops on your face (if your face is feeling rather dry)
Cons:
☹ Some people might dislike the smell..?
☹ Is not enough for extremely dry skin
Overall: 4.8/5
Verdict: I'd give an A+. I'd buy this again, but I'd also like to try out their avocado oil for when my skin is extremely dry.
