I'd love ~8 ounces of the seabuckthorne at that price.

Can you tell me more about their uses? Kind of pricey for soap, but perhaps lotion bars, body butters? Just wondering what I would do with these oils if I got them. They do sound like something I need. I have the world's most dry skin. Well, maybe not the world's most, but close. :wink:

yea - skin care, not soap

I don't know much about the kukui nut oil, but seabuckthorne is loaded with anti-oxidants and other stuff. It's very orange, though - so gets used at low levels (I have it in a facial moisturizing bar at 5% and wouldn't go any higher tho I've seen recommendations as high as 10% - maybe not for Irish skin tones, tho)

google them and you'll find lots of stuff. i know fromnaturewithlove.com has some good info.

Seabuckthorne Fruit Oil

It looks like it's 153 a gallon not 135.

I'd take 4 ounces.

THanks!
