A Facial Oil For Everyone!

Winter is sneaking up on us, and we are looking for ways to lock in essential hydration and maintain our glow. Facial oils are a perfect way to do just that. I personally use facial oils on a daily basis all year and for my facial massages, with and without gua-sha and facial cups.

Facial oils are NOT a one type fits all. There are oils that are perfect for a multitude of concerns and for every skin type, from oil & acne prone, to dry, aging, or sensitive skins. I’ve done the heavy lifting for you this winter and selected my favorite facial oils for every skin type and concern.

Let’s kick it off on the lighter side of the spectrum: Eminence Charcoal & Black Seed Clarifying Oil. This lightweight oil balances oily & acne prone skin types by balancing out oil production, drawing out impurities, soothing inflammation, and brightening post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Perfect year-round for consistently oily & congested skin, hormonal acne sufferers. and for combo skin types in the morning and through the summer.

An oil for all skin types including compromised: Intelligent Elixirs Squalane Ultra + Oil. Seriously, you can’t go wrong with this one. Squalane is a light feeling oil that is very similar to our skins natural oil. This formula also contains avocado oil to boost it’s vitamin content and hydrating properties slightly, turmeric to brighten and protect, and calendula to soothe irritation. 2-3 drops is all you need. This oil is my go-to for facial massage, gua-sha, and facial cupping. Combo skin’s teetering on the edge of oily and dryer can use this alongside the Charcoal & Blackseed Clarifying oil by using the aforementioned during the day and the Squalane Ultra + Oil at night. Dryer skin types can utilize these one to two times per day!

A cult favorite for its firming and anti-aging properties: Eminence Rosehip C+E Firming Oil. This oil is comprised of a blend of results-oriented actives, and ingredients that provide intense hydration and protection. It fights the visible signs of aging, smooths wrinkles, AND hydrates deeply. I love this for combo, normal, and dry skin types. For combo skin, use 2-3 drops before your moisturizer at night. It can be used up to twice per day for normal and dry skin types.

For reactive skin, extremely dry, and compromised skin: Eminence Organic Skin Care Facial Recovery Oil. This toning and hydrating oil created with precious herbs and nourishing oils soothes and renews sensitive and aging skin. Use just a few drops for a hydrating, comforting feel. If you use a thinner moisturizer, apply this oil last. If you use a thicker moisturizer, apply this oil beforehand.
