A natural facial oil is a blend of plant-based carrier oils and beneficial essential oils, intended to nourish, deeply hydrate and protect our skin.

    • Facial oils have no added water and are not emulsified like a cream or moisturiser
    • Unlike water-based serums, facial oils (sometimes called facial oil serums) are oily to the touch, but absorb into skin quickly
    • Natural facial oils (unlike mineral oil) mimic the skin’s natural sebum production and don’t clog pores
    • As we age, our skin produces less oil and facial oils help add oil back, helping us combat wrinkles and dry skin
    • Contrary to popular belief, facial oils can be beneficial to people with oily skin because they help regulate oil production and fight bacteria that causes acne
    • Facial oils protect skin from environmental damage from sun and chemicals in air (although they do NOT provide sunscreen protection)
BENEFITS OF BLENDING YOUR OWN FACIAL OIL
