Let’s talk about face oils….. I have been getting very much into face oils as lately my skin has felt that it needs some loving {aka.. more moisture} Needless to say I currently slather my skin up with facial oils day and night to take care of all things skin. From blemishes to dehydration I am OBSESSED with face oils… Nothing quite like the feeling of an at home facial morning and night; as I layer on a face oil and then an emollient cream/moisturizer. Needless to say I have been quite pleased with the effects… {and youthful glow} Here are three of my current three oily faves that are in current rotation…
Three Face Oils I Am Loving Right Now
I know what you’re thinking three face oils?!? DANG!!!!! It might sound like a bit much; however some have specific duties are used for specific areas of concern or time frame {A night out drinking, PMS–esque symptoms, etc…} Lately my skin likes to surprise me often. I blame that solely on the oh so wonderful weather changes/challenges that Southern California is currently having {one day cold/ one day raining/one day sunny… all = weird}
Face Oil For Combination Skin
So when I am working with perfectly hydrated/combination skin I tend to use Clarin’s Lotus Face Treatment Oil is a natural astringent that helps tighten pores with the help of Lotus extracts. This oil can I just say smells SOOOOOOO good. It is lightly scented and leaves skin overflowing with a perfect glow. I use this at night time, and literally when I awake it leaves my skin plumped and refreshed feeling. The combo of Rosewood, Lotus extract and Geranium are a perfect blend for combination to oily skin. {Yes… I know.. Oily skin doesn’t need oil. But it DOES… as weird as it sounds but oil fights oil} But hands down this stuff is quite phenomenal and has lived up to its hype. {Thank you fellow beauty bloggers for the recommendations}
Face Oil For Dry Skin
Josie Maran’s Argan Oil is a product that I turn to when my skin is extremely dry. This multi-taskable product is amazing at restore moisture into the skin. This 100% pure Argan oil is super lightweight and rich in essential vitamins like E and fatty acids. I often use it on my cuticles when I have had one too many manicures. It helps soothe and soften the skin effortlessly. I have a small bottle of this in my purse currently in case I am running dry or if I have random hair fly-aways. {LOVE}. It is extremely gentle and can be used on all skin types; it easily absorbs into the skin giving that teenage glow and {best part} it has healing, conditioning and anti-aging properties to help keep you revitalized and hydrated.
Everyday Perfect Face Oil for ALL Skin Types
Last but not least is a current hard core staple in my routine… Dr. Alkaitis’s Nourishing Oil Treatment**. I can’t even say enough great things about this oil {here, here, and here}. I use this in the morning after serum and before moisturizers with SPF. It leaves my skin extra smooth and hydrated. It has helped transform my skin like no other. It smells AH-MAZING and literally is a ‘miracle in a bottle’. After the weird weather outbreaks we are having here in Southern California, this oil has rejuvenated my skin and my love for skin oils. I tend to use this in the am routine by warming up a drop between my palms and pressing into my skin. A perfect blend of virgins cold pressed organic oils like Jojoba, Rose Hips Seed oil and a herbal blend of white sandalwood, China root and turmeric this oil is PHENOM!!!! It is a serious mus have in my skin routine..The purpose of this story…. Don’t be afraid of face oils! I promise you they might change your life and your skin.
