I just started using it, like, yesterday. So I can't really give a firm answer to this yet, but I can tell you that my skin's initial response was very good. It absorbed nicely, and I don't feel greasy with it on (and I have pretty oily skin). And I love the idea on using something on my face that I can use around my eyes also

I have read a lot about camellia oil on the acne boards, and tons of people love it. So I'm tempted to say, yeah, it's legit. But, like I said, I just started using it. I'll let you know in a week or two....

i have been using it for a about 1.5-2months i just wanted to know if anyone has been using it.. im 16 and had some forehead lines.. including 1 really deep one.. 3 of the 4 lines are almost gone but im not sure if thats from the silkia camellia oil or the fact that im not making forehead movements anymore.. i also got some lines under my eyes somehow at 16 also.. so im gonna try it on that... i figure that will be a real test on how it works.

If you have a tendency to make muscle expressions/forehead movements that caused those lines, then I don't see why you did it then and not do it now, unless you had Botox or something like that that paralyzed those muscle movements. So if you didn't Botox or use anything else, then the camellia oil is the reason for the reduction of your lines. Even if you don't make those muscle movements anymore, the lines will not go away on their own.

Before I used this oil, even a tiny muscle movement or expression, like raising my eye brows or speaking up, would accentuate harshly my frown lines. But since those lines were eliminated by the oil after 4 months, there are no more of those lines even if I consciously make rather exaggerated expressions or muscle movements.
