Not sure what your skin type is? Step this way to learn.
We suggest applying face oil directly onto the skin after you wash your face with warm water each morning and night, as a last step to your beauty routine. Oils provide a protective barrier to help lock-in moisture while delivering nourishing vitamins to your skin. You should not need a moisturizer when applying facial oils, however if you want to use both, just add a couple of drops of oil into your moisturizer just before you apply it.
Your skin does not need to be totally dry to before you apply facial oil. Actually, applying to damp skin can actually help the oil absorb and spread more quickly and easily.
You only need a few drops of oil per use. After allowing 5 minutes for the facial oil to sink in, if your skin still feels oily you are probably using too much. After 5 minutes your skin should feel soft and hydrated. Typically people need 3—5 drops of oil per use, so simply alter the amount you're applying depending on how your skin feels after each application.
Your body oil is best absorbed when applied to warm, damp skin. After you get out of the shower, towel off slightly and then massage the oil in circular motions into your skin.
Tip: Excess oil makes a great hand and nail cream, so massage any left-overs into your cuticles and nail bed.
Of course, if any irritation occurs, discontinue use. We sometimes use oils derived from nuts like hazelnut, so please be aware of possible allergens. We always recommend speak to your doctor before using any beauty oils if you have a nut allergy.
You can apply makeup over a light layer of your facial oil, just allow a few minutes (3—5) for the oil to absorb first. Or, add a drop of oil to your foundation for a dewy, fresh finish.
We only use beautiful oils that are cold-pressed and unrefined, which allows these beautiful botanical ingredients to retain their skin-supporting properties.
