Emu Oil Pure Premium Golden 8 Ounces

Emu oil is a miracle. I’ve been using it since 1996 when I first discovered it. Emu oil is fat rendered from the emu bird. It is liquid at room temperature and remains stable (not rancid) for very many months and even a few years. As for all the health benefits and how I use it, there are many uses for PEOPLE. • It's known to heal burns and dramatically accelerate healing, provide soothing relief, and improve scaring. Emus are native to Australia, as I understand it, and Aborigines use emu oil specifically for healing, especially for burns. Clinical studies of burn victims, again as I understand it, have shown how dramatic emu oil is to rapid healing. • I use emu oil after doing my own chemical peel, which I tend to do strong (called medium) chemical peels at home with serious peeling, swelling, bruising. It's the absolute best for healing most quickly - better than coconut, olive, and other nut and seed oils - which are all excellent healing oils. • Emu oil is known for increasing the efficacy of other chemicals used with it, so it is considered a ‘carrier oil' like almond oil is. That means when I apply copper serum to my skin first and then emu oil; it amplifies the benefits of the serum. This is especially helpful after my chemical peel when I apply copper serum, it stings and emu oil soothes my inflamed skin immediately and provides soothing for hours after application. Emu oil is supposed to be excellent when combining with arthritis rubs because it's such excellent carrier oil. • Because of its benefit of a carrier oil and it's so emollient - its consistency is slippery and viscous - emu oil is amazing to rub out existing bruises and swelling that leads to bruising. I'm a bleeder and a bruiser. It's bad. When I do paralytics, I'll rub in the emu oil where I had the injections as a preventative measure so I can keep my secret (and tell the world on Amazon. So much for discretion!) As for fillers, also use emu oil on the entire area where the filler is injected. Emu oil is perfect for doing the deep rubbing and massaging necessary to make the filler supple, soothe the swelling, prevents worse bruising, and integrate the filler into its area. • Apply emu oil to rashes for quick healing and soothing. It is especially helpful with eczema, psoriasis, shingles, and herpes outbreaks. It helps to break open the blisters with an antiseptic like alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or witch hazel. Rashes that are contagious spread through the liquid in the blisters when they break. This is how rashes spread on yourself (like from mouth to genitals and vice versa for herpes) and from different places on your body (like eczema). For the love of God, check with your doctor if you have something as painful as shingles. I recommend this as a home remedy, but there is no substitute for medical intervention when you need massive doses of medicine just to get by. • Emu oil is to be antibacterial, antiviral, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory. This is also true of very many nut and seed oils like coconut, almond, olive, and so on. So apply emu oil to cleansed cuts, scrapes, scabs, scars, boo boos, ouchies. • Emu oil helps a ton with insect bites. I overreact to mosquito bites where it swells to a quarter size wheal. It's worse on my feet and ankles where multiple bites swell that appendage. Using my mom's trick to eliminate the itch and sting, apply ammonia or Windex that contains ammonia to the bite sight. It then develops a bubble of water that becomes salt, which you just brush off. (How does this work? Bug bites are acidic and ammonia is base. Adding an acid to a base creates water and salt - basic stoichiometry in chemistry! Bug bite acids are the same 'strength' as vinegar (acetic acid), and an equivalent 'strength' base is ammonia. A much stronger base is bleach, which I would probably use to neutralize a scorpion sting - God help me.) • Massaging emu oil into the scalp stimulates hair growth and treats dandruff. It's great to treat dry, brittle hair. You can sleep with emu oil on your head and face and it won't permanently stain your sheets in that it washes out completely and easily. That's true of all natural oils: animal fats, vegetables and nut/seed oils. Know that synthetic oils don't wash out, like mineral oil or Vaseline that's petroleum based. I'm reminded of the eternal clothing stains when black men enjoyed the Jeri Curl of the late, great eighties. • It is an amazing lubricant for your nether regions. Instead of KY, use emu oil. It’s longer lasting, doesn’t dry out, you can eat it (tastes like chicken!), and it causes no infections the way synthetic oils can. You can also use emu oil (and coconut oil) to lubricate devices inserted into uncomfortable spots. • Chewing on hangnails is huge source of illness from infection. I know because I do it to myself all the time. It's compulsive. But if your immunity is compromised, an infected hangnail could cause serious problems or worsen existing ones. Yipes. To treat it, rub emu oil all over your hands, drenching the cuticles. Then wear nifty little cotton gloves to keep them covered. I've used a pair of white cotton sox when I didn't have those nifty little gloves. • Same treatment goes for your feet, especially if you have those big, thick, nasty callouses and cracked dry beds for the soles of your feet. Try and remove the callous to the extent desired or possible, then slather on emu oil and slip on your socks, then wear your slippers if walking around (or you might leave footprints). As for all the benefits of emu oil for PETS, they are also many. • I feed my new little rescue puppy emu oil along with his raw food diet many times throughout the day. After we rescued him, we realized that he was starving and extremely thirsty. To build his health and help him gain weight – he is skin and bones, you can see his little ribs and he has a really big hollow between his ribs and hips – I load up his frequent meals with decent doses of emu oil (and salmon oil, coconut oil, olive oil – no walnut or macadamia oil because that is toxic to dogs). • Emu oil is wonderful to rub on your dog or cat’s skin and fur. My other dog, also a rescue with health and especially immunity issues – that’s how we discovered the raw food diet by Darwin’s and The Honest Kitchen), developed a painful and itchy rash on her belly down to her lower legs. She used to bite herself incessantly and go crazy. I rubbed her belly and all along her legs with a slathering of emu oil. It was so soothing and helped resolved the problem. • If a food safe to eat, then it is safe to apply to skin. Same for pets as for people, but so many ‘people things’ can kill or harm dogs and cats. So having the peace of mind of applying emu oil to their aggravated skin, knowing that they will lick it off and that it is safe and healthy, is a wonderful thing. When they lick it off, keep reapplying it! It’s good for them.

Hello to my fellow Amazonites: I give mostly 5 star reviews I have noticed. It's not because I am easily satisfied because I am not. I demand the best. I then realized the reason is because before I purchase anything I spend a lot of time researching it to find the best, so I usually get the best. Rarely am I disappointed. So goes for this wonderful product. I would not have believed it was possible for this product to do what it did, and to think, I actually ordered this for dry skin. I remain amazed. I am on 2 narcotic pain medications plus Lyrica and anti-inflamatory meds for chronic pain due to early onset of arthritis in my hips, spine, groin, pelvis and knees. I can barely walk anymore and when I try I pop like popcorn, it is so noisy and painful. I need both hip and knee replacements. Lately, it has gotten so bad that my strong narcotic meds barely touch this pain. It is a sharp , deep pain that hurts when I just touch my skin. i have gotten very little sleep at all. I had remembered I use to buy this super blue cream in a jar that seemed to help my pain and it had Emu oil. That was when my pain was not nearly this bad though. I could not sleep and was crying in pain. Every move was so painful. I decided to rub some of this on me where it hurts, thinking I had nothing to lose but doubted it would help this kind of pain intensity. I rubbed it on one side only. I fell asleep. I awoke in pain soon after but the side I put it on was not the side that woke me up hurting, it was the other side. I could not believe it and tried to rationalize it. Then I rubbed it on the other side and same thing. it just works.I research things "to death" I have been told. I give up trying to figure out how. I usually have to crawl up the stairs on hands and knees and today I walked up. Yes, I have pain and still need the hip and knee replacements but I walked up! I also noticed I did not have the popping and cracking with every step, only some. To me that is a big deal. I intend to continue using this. I intend to research other uses for it. A little goes a long way . I also massaged my scalp with it as I have heard it is great for your scalp and hair. I still have to wash it out but am expecting my hair to be in better condition. I just put it on a little cyst with pain my son has on his ear/jaw to see if it will help. If not ...to the Dr. You can guess by now that I highly recommend this Emu Oil and this company. I also want to say that when the Post Office held up my order , I did not know at the time, I thought it might be lost, this wonderful company Fed Exed me out another bottle. They were so kind and helpful. Please try this product and purchase it from this company. Their product is excellent. I can not smell a poultry oder in it at all. It is light color and creamy texture which means high quality Emu Oil. It may or may not work for you but if it does it will save you some suffering. It is worth a try! Blessings! 1/23/11 UPDATE: I still use and love this and am going to order more. Today my son had a bad case of the flu with bad joint aches. I used this on him and his pain subsided almost immediately. He was able to finally sleep. This stuff works. I also mix this now with Cobraxin , also sold on amazon and is a miracle pain reliever also. Mixed, they work even better together. Cobraxin is made with cobra venom and has the recommendation of the Arthritis Foundation. I mix them because the Emu Oil helps joint and muscle pain and so does Cobraxin, but, Cobraxin leaves me with the smallest amount of warmth, 'heat 'sensation. Together they really "pack a punch".

To give a little background...I'm African-American and I have relaxed hair. I use the Phytospecific relaxer and I relax every 3 months. I only visit a salon for relaxer touchups and trims. During my most recent visit to the salon, my stylist suggested that I incorporate more moisturizing products into my regimen. My staple products are Phytospecific Intense Nutrition Shampoo, Aveda Damage Remedy Restructuring Shampoo, Phytospecific Intense Nutrition Mask (conditioner) or Phytospecific Vital Force Cream Bath (conditioner). My stylist suggested that I try the Aveda Dry Remedy products. My normal routine included washing with both the Phytospecific and the Aveda shampoo's mentioned above. Then I would apply one of the Phytospecific conditioners mentioned above and sit under the hair dryer for about 20 minutes. Rinse and style. I achieved excellent results with this process. However, I decided to incorporate a hot oil treatment and to try a more moisturizing conditioner. So here's my new routine...I purchased Pure Emu Oil, the Professional Salon Hair Steamer, and Tropic Isle Strong Roots Red Pimento Hair Growth Oil, and Aveda Dry Remedy Moisturizing Treatment Mask (all from Amazon). I apply the Emu Oil and Red Pimento Hair Growth Oil to my hair and scalp and then I sit under the Hair Steamer for 15-20 minutes. I then wash with my Phytospecific and Aveda Shampoo. Then I apply the Aveda Dry Remedy Moisturizing Treatment Masque and sit under the Hair Steamer for another 20 minutes. At this point, my hair feels really soft and full of moisturize. I then rinse with cool water and style. Results: The results are still excellent, however, I did notice a difference in the level of moisture in my hair. To style my hair, I blow-dried and applied a dime-size of Morrocan Oil and half of a dime-size of Emu Oil to my entire head (my hair reaches just below the top of my back) and I flat-ironed. My hair was shiny, soft and full of body...definitely salon-quality! Recommendation: Aveda Dry Remedy Moisturizing Masque, a hot oil treatment (Emu Oil makes my hair feel really soft) and a hair steamer! I'm constantly receiving compliments on my hair! I want my hair to always look like I just stepped out of the salon; however, I can't afford to go to the salon every week, and with my hair regimen I don't have to! I wash my hair once a week and I achieve salon-quality results without the high prices.

I'm a 39 year old Caucasian woman and I bought this with intentions of using for my thin hair. I used it on my scalp along with black Jamaican castor oil for months but didn't really see any difference except for having really greasy hair. So I stopped using it and it sat in my cabinet for a year. Fast forward to about 3 months ago when I started taking allergy medicine, which was great for my allergies but really drying and harsh on my skin. My face had visible flaking patches that no amount of exfoliation would resolve. About a month ago out of desperation I grabbed this oil and put it on those patches. I was sure it would break me out, but I couldn't deal with the dry skin any more. And WOW! Not only did it NOT make me break out, but my dry patches were gone the next morning. I have been using for a month now every morning and night (just a tiny drop) and my skin has never looked better. I can't believe I had this in my cabinet for so long and didn't realize what a miracle it was. After I smooth on my face/neck I rub my fingers thru the ends and length of my hair and it makes a huge difference in shine and smoothness. My hair is still thin but it looks really healthy.

I have not seen many reviews from women of color on how this works for hair so I decided to write this. I'm a black woman and have had my hairline damaged by relaxers over the years. I got burned really badly. The damage is mostly on the right side of my head while my left side still looks OK. I've also braided my hair alot and listened to all kinds of advice on how to get my hair to grow back. No hairdresser could help me. I had almost given up until I found out about emu oil, and how it stimulates hair follicles to start growing hair again. So I decided to give it a try. MY gosh! It' been a couple months and I just started noticing how much my hairline is starting to look even on both sides. My right side is filling in nicely! It took me a while to realize it because I decided not to obsess with it (I know, not normal). I guess I didn't expect much since I had tried so many things. I read it was safe, so I just applied it and moved on. I wish now I had taken before/after pictures. I just put a SMALL amount and massage it into my scalp every other day. Don't plaster on too much, just a little is needed. I massage my scalp for a few min to increase blood flow and make sure emu oil is absorbed. Just so you know, I've started texturizing my hair as well. I find the relaxers a bit too strong for my scalp. So I put texturizer in my hair, then leave it in longer than the few min on the instructions so it pulls out alot more kink. Turns my hair really straight and it looks relaxed. I've also gotten into oil treatments. I mix cayenne pepper with castor oil and paste it generously into my whole scalp. Then I put coconut oil on my hair, rub some on my scalp where I already have castor oil mix, wrap my whole head with plastic and leave it on a few hours or overnight. Then wash my hair as usual. I do this once a week. But I've been more consistent with the emu oil than anything else. Try it, you've got nothing to lose. It's natural and likely won't cause anymore damage than you may already have. 2-4 times a week should do. Keep this up a couple months. If nothing grows, your follicles may be really dead. I was bald at the front for nearly 10 years and I'm really happy this worked. If you don't like it for your hair, you can always use it on your skin. Heard it's great for face care. Either way, you likely won't waste your money on this product.

I've bought Emu oil from three different companies and can promise you THIS is the one to buy. I bought one brand here at Amazon that was about the same price as this and it was so thin and runny I ended up just re-ordering this one, it was a total waste of money and I guess I'll just use it for my hands or something. I bought another brand in the past from a farm that was about the same quality called Montana Farms that was twice the price. Emu oil is reputed to actually help your skin regain its plumpness because it has the same lipids as young, plump skin, but it HAS to be the high quality one to work which this brand is. I use it with a Dermaroller (they sell them here for very little money) and the oil gets deep in my skin. It's all natural so this is great for those of us who are really using this for serious skin plumping, anti-aging purposes. What really impresses me is that it's AA quality, that's the good stuff where you get results yet this price is actually do-able. Apparently they're a lovely, family farm with ethical practices as well so you're supporting good things in the world. I'm just sorry I strayed last time! If you're like me and trying to choose between versions for the best, top quality Emu oil at a great price THIS is the one! Learn from my mistakes in trying other brands. -- Thank you to this lovely company and please keep selling this at this same high quality at this good price so I can continue to fight the good fight for my skin with a great natural product that actually does wonders for the skin! Edited to add on 6/8/2016: I recently had a BAD microdermabrasian incident where vitamins I put on my face afterward burned and scabbed over my skin. I've been using this for the past three days and my skin is almost totally healed. I had some thin scabs all over the face and something that looked like acne and it's mostly gone. Now I'll be sticking with this alone (or mixed with high quality organic castor oil) for the next few weeks because it has benefits with few drawbacks and when you're going through an issue it's usually quite safe and healing. I'd forgotten that unlike most oils this does NOT sting the eyes! You can use it for your eyes ladies and gentlemen! So anyway, it's REALLY a go-to product for me and right now it's saving me from a pretty severe setback with my skin issues.

I can't believe that in the years of my (relatively) short existence, Emu oil was unknown to me. I knew of the Emu of course as one of the few animals (besides the elephant), who's name started with an "E-" quite a useful fact in elementary school! However, I stumbled across this gold-in-a-bottle while doing a paper on hair growth and hair loss. Oleic acid is one of the main sources of its success. Oleic acid is highly penetrative-it is easily absorbed into skin. It also has no phospholipids which means that the skin won't hesitate to take it in (human skin blocks anything containing phosphorus). But I divert from my point... I bought this and my goal was to see if it actually made any difference to my hair and skin. Would it work as well as my lotion? My hair moisturizer? It actually worked better! The only downfall was that it didn't exactly smell like roses-or any flower I can think of actually. It reminded a bit of old grease. I'd put it on and though it's not a strong scent, you cannot forget it's there! So, what I did was this: I bought and empty squeeze bottle and mixed in my emu oil with a few drops of a few favorite essential oils and voila! The smell didn't bother me anymore. I'd put some in my hair, wrap my head and leave it on overnight to wash out in the morning and it left my hair soft and manageable. In three weeks, I noticed a big improvement. Much thicker hair! I do not reccomend going crazy with this-a little does go a long way! I did three drops at first and then, added a little more as needed. It is very, very moisturizing so try it out little by little and see how much your hair really needs (if using it for that purpose). It's also great on rashes (anti-inflammatory) and I've pretty much tested on everything but cooking and laundry...not sure if the world is ready for that yet lol

Purchased this bc I've heard that it does wonders for dark spots. I have not seen a significant change, but I also have not been very consisten. I've given it 4 starts because I do believe in its potential. I have not used it in my hair, and I don't really plan on it. If I do, & the results are worth it, I'll write a review. I also use this oil on a fairly new piercing. It was recommended by my piercer, and I'd say it deserves a 5* for that purpose. I started using it once the piercing was about 3 wks old, and haven't had any issues whatsoever. This is pretty expensive, so in the future, I plan to mix with shea butter to extend the use. It does not leave your skin greasy, but I usually try to wait a few minutes before putting my clothes on getting on the couch/in bed to ensure the majority of it has absorbed. Will continue to use, and follow up with an updated review. I'll try to remember to take before and after pictures too! 1.9.15 I've been pretty consistent and I do not see any real change in my dark spots. So sad bc I heard so many great things and I'm not seeing those benefits ): will continue to use, so hopefully I'll see results by end of the bottle. On a more positive note, I've been using this since November,and I still have about half (if not more) of a bottle left.
