Facial oils are all the rage these days, but this isn’t necessarily a new trend. According to many dermatologists, a face oil may be the crucial step that is missing from your skincare routine. I know what you’re thinking if you have oily skin, “I can’t use an oil because I’m already oily”. Well that my love is false! Facial oils are great for any skin type.
Here are some key benefits to using a facial oil:
- reduce wrinkles
- protects your skin
- can shrink large pores
- can calm down rashes
- great for warding off zits
- repair cell damage
- restore healthy complexion
Here are some of my favorite face oils that I’ve used.
