Tamanu oil is absolutely fabulous for a number of things - I get ALL my oils from Mountain Rose Herbs and they have the basic descriptions and compositions of each oil they sell right on their website. If you find you have issues with the smell diluting it into a carrier oil or adding a drop or two of essential oil to your bottle may help.

Just wanted to say that I ordered this based on Artic Mama's suggestion that it would help fade acne marks, and I love it!! I've only used it for two days, and I can already tell a difference in the lightening of the scars. (And I *never* see fast results and hate when reviewers say they were changed overnight!) But this is genuinely great for my skin; no breakouts so far either. I'm just using straight tamanu oil after cleansing and before bed. For the price, I think it's well worth a try!

I agree that the smell is off-putting (like strong soy sauce -- though, go figure, my husband actually kind of likes it...), but since I'm seeing results so quickly, I've decided I can definitely live with it. So excited, I just had to share! Very Happy

(I also posted on the acne mark thread, but wanted to make sure my comments made it here as well.)

I ordered some from mountain rose herbs, also. I'm using it on stretchmarks. It seems very very effective on improving skintone and thickness on damaged skin. It smells savoury/nutty.

I like it a lot.

I want some argan oil now! Something quite luscious about oils...
