What it is: Maracuja Oil from Tarte that is 100 percent cold pressed, translucent organic oil straight from the Amazonian Rainforest and extracted from the Maracuja flower (pretty exotic, huh?) It is high in Vitamin C  and fatty acids. This oil is to be used at night and after cleansing. This is going to replace your regular serums and moisturizers. A supplemental moisturizer may be used after according to your skin needs.

The Claims:  This oil claims to make skin more radiant, improve skin texture, and reduce fine lines, due to the high concentration of the antioxidant Vitamin C, and essential fatty acids.  All skin types can use this product. Two to three drops is recommended.

The Results: I love it! I’ve been using for about three weeks now and my skin does look brighter. I don’t see that it has reduced the fine lines I have on my forehead, but I have only used for a couples weeks (I’ll update later on.)  This product does a good job at moisturizing my normal to dry skin. I use about five to six drops a night because I like a very moisturized feel and dewy look. I equate dewy, moisturized skin to younger skin. This oil sinks right into skin and does not leave behind an oily residue.  It has not broken me out at all, and it just balances my skin.  I use this at night in place of my eye cream, face serum, and moisturizer, so it’s like three products in one! Hello saving some money! I have noticed some reduced darkness around my eyes, which to me is pretty impressive. Also, It does not irritate my eye area. The only place to get it right now is QVC. I highly recommend! Believe the hype!
