Get that summer glow all year round and wave 'au revoir' to damaged winter skin.

In the same way that Tinder is the controversy of the dating world, oil is the controversy of the beauty world. Confusing, unsure if it works, but when it’s good – it’s great (and kind of addictive).

After creeping their way into our hair care regime (we love you Argan oil), it’s time to start planting beauty oil on to your skin, and fast. 

Whether you have dry, combination or oily skin, facial oils are actually good for ALL kind of skin types.  The right kind of oils actually fight breakouts, keep your skin silky smooth, moisturised and super glowy.  Just remember, the more good oils you use, the less likely it is that your body will produce its own bad oils. Bad oils lead to spots… and spots?

Well, they’re like the unwanted houseguest you can’t wait to get rid of.

So, if your skin is in Winter SOS mode, it’s time to start now. From rosehip to African marula oil, we’ve listed our top five skin heroes.

African Botanics

If you’re looking for the creme da la creme of facial oils, we’re in to this Pure Marula Oil, made quite literally from pure Marula Oil.

Full of essential fatty acids, Vitamin C and E, this product works to increase elasticity and produce collagen in the skin. Who needs a vampire facial when you’ve got this liquid gold?

 

 

The Ordinary

We’re all for quality products that don’t break the bank, which is why when we found the 100% Organic Cold-Pressed - Rose Hip Seed Oil from The Ordinary, it was love at first site. Yep, before the oil touched our skin we knew we’d go all the way in this relationship, and we were right.

The rosehip serum glides on to the skin, working to break down hyperpigmentation as well as fade all lines and the dreaded… wrinkles. Eternal youth in a bottle, who’d of known? 

Clarins

Since we started crushing on the deliciously green world of organic beauty, it’s all we can think about. If your skin’s feeling the brunt of the colder weather (Spring, we’re waiting for you boo), we couldn’t recommend the Blue Orchid Face Treatment Oil by Clarins anymore.

 It’s time to put some nourishment and ALL the vitamins back into your dry skin by enjoying the benefits of pure plant power.

Pixi

It’s time for a reboot. Enter, Pixi’s Jasmine Oil Blend which helps dry skin to recover from moisture loss by repairing damage by injecting omega fatty acids and antioxidants.

Suffering from unbalanced skin? The blend of natural botanicals in this little green bottle of heaven is here to save the day.

Khiel’s

Last but definitely not least, we’ve got the Superbly Restorative Argan Dry Oil from a household brand, Khiel’s.

This stuff can be used on your face, body and hair. That’s right, we’ve found a keeper.

Hair: See ya split ends, we’re over you.

Skin: Silky smooth appearance and a balanced texture for your complexion and all over the body. We like it, and so will you.
