Face oils are one of my favourite skincare products. I find them way more powerful in hydrating my skin than moisturiser or a serum. Face oils have a range of benefits, there's even some for oily skin. I have loads of different oils in my skincare rotation so today I wanted to share them with you.
For reference I have dry / dehydrated skin that lacks glow and radiance.
Inglot Spot Light oil* | £21
I think Inglot is such an overlooked brand in the UK. They have some amazing products, this oil included. It's packed with essential vitamins and minerals, as well as Argan oil to protect and nourish the skin. This oil also protects the skin from the environment. It's really light weight and fast absorbing so it can be used in the morning and evening. It adds instant hydration to my skin but keeps hydrated all day! It soothes any dry areas and gives my skin an instant glow to it. Not only is this hydrating but it contains Kenal oil which is supposed to tighten pores. I don't really have an issue with this so I'm not sure if this actually does. But in terms of hydrating and glow factor this is definitely one to check out. I also love the packaging of this, rather than your regular pipette style dropper, (where you have to pinch the lid) this has an pump instead!
BYBI Supercharge Serum* | £32
BYBI Is definitely a brand you should have on your radar. Their products are 100% natural, vegan and cruelty free but they perform. I've been loving this oil. Well its packaging says it's serum but has an oil consistency and performs in the way oil does. This contains Squalane which is super hydrating on the skin. It helps plump out fine lines and keep my dry areas at bay. This can be used in the morning and evening and works well in both.
ARK Skin Perfector Radiance Serum* | £45
I'm obsessed with this oil. This says it boosts radiance and this really does give the skin a brilliant glow. It contains Vitamin C and Amino acids that work to keep the skin looking bright and fresh. I also find this really hydrating. The oil is really light and absorbs really quickly. You only need a few drops of this, a little goes a long way which makes it really cost effective. I like to use this in the evening after a regular serum but before moisturiser and I love how well this works overnight. If you have dull skin, this is for you!
Caudalie Vine Active Overnight Detox Oil* | £30
This is a relatively new addition to my collection but one that I've been loving. This is an overnight oil that helps eliminate toxins from the skin which helps the cells repair and renew themselves quicker. It does this with a potent cocktail of vitamins, essentials oils and Omega 6. This is a little richer than some of the oils here but I love how it feels on my skin. It adds hydration and leaves my skin so smooth, it also definitely looks a lot plumper to.
Skin Owl Beauty Drops* | £79
Skin Owl is another brand you should have on the radar. The brand is all natural and developed for those with acne prone skin but this oil in particular is really hydrating and suitable for all skin types. This oil is eye wateringly expensive but that's because it contains the powder antioxidant Maqui Berry, which is really hard to source. Maqui Berry works wonders on the skin. It eliminates toxins, reduces free radicals, helps prevent ageing and keeps skin bright and glowing. And this does everything it claims! I like to use a few drops after cleansing at night and in the morning the results speak for themselves. My skin is so plump, and touchable smooth! My dry areas are gone and my skin just looks a whole lot better.
Farsali Rose Gold Elixir* | £50
I'm sure most of you would have seen this oil on your Instagram feed at some point. It's made by the gorgeous Farah and her husband. It's formulated with Rosehip oil and it has 24k gold flakes in it that help boost radiance. This oil has a range of skincare uses, it can be used as a moisturiser, a primer, mixed with foundation and even a lip balm. It is so hydrating! As a primer this soothes over my dry areas and makes my foundation apply flawlessly. The gold flakes definitely work to give my skin a healthy glow to it. As a moisturiser this really helps to keep my skin hydrated and plump all day.
There's a few of my favourite oils to give my face life and keep it looking plump and radiant.
Have you tried any of these? What's your favourite face oil?
Until next time...
