Feedback
I LOVE the passionfruit oil and not just any passionfruit oil but in particular GOW's. I tried another major brand's labeled as maracuja oil and it was terrible. I usually use a hydrosol to help smoothe it on, but that other brand's was too thick and would not absorb no matter what I did. ... *sigh* I love it so much.
