I've been eyeing this for months and didn't want to spend $50 on another face oil right now just in case I didn't love it. This baby is wonderful! I would definitely repurchase. I...

"Orange is a colour located between red and yellow on the spectrum of light, and in the traditional colour wheel used by painters. Its name is derived from the orange fruit.
