Kevala - Organic Extra Virgin Sesame Oil 8 Fl. Oz.

I like it. I Googled and researched thoroughly sesame oil, the cons and benefits before purchasing.I bought it as a skin care product. I use it when I dermaplane my face, works great also, as a skin lighter Slowing but surely, it lightened my under eyes, and helped with dark circles,and hyperpigmentation. Makes for a very effective moisturizer as well. I put it in a roller bottle and roll it all over my skin, I also use it right after I shower, while skin is still damp. It Comes in a plastic bottle, not glass, so I'm not to keen on that. I also, take one tablespoon a day. All in all, it's a 5 star for me.

Using on my body, because I have dry skin and it’s recommended to use sesame oil for Vata dosha in Ayurveda. It’s heavier than coconut oil. Our skin absorbs what we put on it and it’s better to put something on it you could ingest rather than something with perfumes and chemicals. This feels very silky on wet skin coming out of the shower. I haven’t cooked with it so I can’t help you out there!

Lovely oil! Very delicate sesame flavor. Am more likely to use it un-cooked in dressings, and in soap-making and for moisturizer, than for cooking using heat. The cap of my bottle was very securely plastic-sealed, there was an inner plastic barrier under the cap, and the bottle was well wrapped in double boxes to keep it intact during shipping. So, zero damage or leakage.

Pleasant mild flavor. Comes in a glass bottle, which is important to me. Taking off a star for poor packaging; cap was taped to bottle and still there was some leakage. The seal under the cap was detached from bottle when I opened it. Hard to know if would have leaked anyway, but more care needs to be taken by both the manufacturer and the shipper to prevent leaking during shipping. Otherwise, happy with the product.

As others have said, this seller ships bottles without tightly affixing the caps so they leak during transit. My bottle and packing bubbles in the box were covered in oil. It is not easy to photograph that, so I attached a picture of the inside of the box with the oil stains.This is unsatisfactory packaging. Seller, please tighten your lids properly before packing shipping. The product odor and taste is good and fresh. Only the packaging is the problem and the reason for 3 stars.
