    Marula Skin (Tissue) Oil

    7/ 10

    An honesty flag worth knowing: this is a mineral-oil base with marula added, not a pure marula oil. Effective and affordable for stretch marks and body dryness, but fragranced — use caution on acne-prone faces.

      Works okay but broke me out slightly in the first week. Settled down after that though.

      As a dermatologist based in Rustenburg, I see a lot of dry body skin, and this formula holds up better than most options in this price bracket.

      Checked prices across a few retailers before buying — this came out as the best value by a decent margin.
