There are a ton of oils on the market, which sometimes makes it difficult to figure out which one may be right for you. Here are a list of skin types and the oils that best suit them.
Average Skin - For average skin types, the ideal facial oil is hydrating without being too heavy for the skin to absorb.
- Argan
- Marula
- Jojoba
- Rosehip
- Grapeseed
Recommendations: MAELOVE PURE MARULA OIL + THE ORDINARY 100% ORGANIC COLD-PRESSED ROSEHIP SEED OIL
Oily Skin - Some might not realize that fighting oil with oil really does work! This skin type needs a light oil that deeply hydrates to counteract the overproduction of sebum. An active formulation is also very effective.
- Squalane
- Jojoba
- Marula
- Lapis
- Tea Tree
Recommendations: LEO OIL + THE CLARIFY OIL
Dry Skin: There are endless options to choose from for this skin type. Something moisturizing and nourishing is best for this skin type. You want it to be slightly more viscous without clogging pores.
- Argan
- Avocado
- Grapeseed
- Sunflower
- Carrot Seed
Recommendations: THE NOURISH OIL + RMS BEAUTY OIL
Sensitive Skin: Oils are a savior for inflamed skin. You want an oil that has the most limited amount of ingredients as possible. This makes you less receptive to irritations from the blend.
- Orchid
- Avocado
- Flaxseed
- Moringa
Recommendations: THE NOURISH OIL + HERBIVORE ORCHARD OIL
