Matia Formula 5 Oil

The pump delivers just the right amount, and one drop of this oil melts into my skin without any greasy residue—the salt and geranium scent is subtle but lingers nicely. I’ve been using it on my hair ends before bed, and they feel softer by morning.

The scent is nice—salty and a bit earthy—but the 50ml bottle feels small for the price, and I’m not sure it’s doing much more for my skin than my usual lotion. It does absorb quickly without greasiness, which I appreciate, though I expected a richer feel from something called an oil.
