I read a Salli Hughes article about face oils and decided I must need one. I bought the vitamin e one from Body Shop she recommended (& night cream) but am not sure how/when to apply it?
Has anyone had good results with it? I tried the Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair recently (and didn't like it at all.
).
I'm a big fan of face oil and regularly use Decleor. If you go into one of the bigger dept stores that stock Decleor you might be able to blag a sample to try.
Another vote for Decleor. Neroli under day/night moisturiser is brilliant if you're unsure which one you need.
I love Decleor ones, especially this one:
www.feelunique.com/p/Decleor-Aromessence-Excellence-Ultra-Regenerating-Serum-15ml
they call it a serum for some reason but it's oil really.
I use a really inexpensive Boots own product overnight. It's call Traditional Rose and Glycerine Toner and Moisturiser. My skin's supple and glowy in the mornings. Have used it for a long time and when I run out, I can really see the difference.
I use this after seeing it recommended on here and it is lovely for dry skin.
another vote for coconut oil here
argan oil is great too
has to be 100% pure though
Liz Earle Superskin Concentrate is a really lovely face oil - smells gorgeous too.
sansucre I really wanted to try the Notte cream, but sadly am in Scotland and stupid shop has no online presence <pouts>
bluesky glad you love it. Mine lasts ages. Tis truly beautiful and feels like such a lovely treat to apply before bedtime 
ujjayi's recommendation; the aromatherapy associates oil is gorgeous, mine arrived on Friday, the smell is amazing, you only need the smallest amount, morning and evening.
I used to be a huge fan of Clarins' Blue Orchid oil so am rather thrilled they've re-issued it.. must remember to pop into John Lewis and pick up a sample on my way home tomorrow 
Am currently using Olio Nutriente Notte from the Farmaceutica Santa Maria Novella which is wonderful, it's a mix of jojoba, macadamia, avocado oil and pollen extracts. If anyone finds themselves in Florence (or their shop in London) I highly recommend it.
Bio oil broken my skin out and I had to have a course of microdermabrasion facials before it was ok again!
I love the Body Shops vit E oil and use it in the evening after hot cloth cleanse, I try to massage it in for a few minutes. Smells good 
what is this face oil mani around atm? is the business in trouble!?
also read clarins is the best oil to put on yer face 
Oh I'm off to boots tomorrow then!
Every store is giving free samples of Clarins
i use a vie oil cleanser and its great for my oily skin.
I use Kiehls argan oil and I LOVE it for face and hair.
I use the Neal's Yard one at night - either the rose or orange flower - switch between them depending on how my skin is feeling. Both gorgeous and leave the skin so soft. Retail at about £20. Last for ages and are a lovely treat for your hands if you've been outdoors and they are sore and dry.
ooh yes I got the clarins one yesterday for free!!! they last for ages and it is lovely. I would suggest sending in your dh for another freebie to make it last even longer!
I've just started using the Clarins one and it's fab, smells delicious and relaxes me. My skin's pretty good too 
Coconut oil is fab. I always put a dollop in my bath and my skin feels fab, i cleanse and moisturise my face with it, rub it in my nails and rub it in the ends of my hair after washing it. You can buy a massive tub of it in holland and Barrett for about fourteen pounds or a small tub from superdrug for about two pounds. In the haircare section x
I have both the clarins one and a decleor one. I love them.
I have been mixing a couple of drops of Decleor Angelique oil with my morning moisturiser and then Garnier BB cream, then a little foundation.
My skin is looking good at the mo. Also been cleansing at night with avocado oil and warm cloth.
Tho have just seen the clarins advert in a mag and if they are doing free samples.... Just in the big chains - or would my little boots do the samples do you think?
I tried the rose one by terry in space nk yesterday and it was lovely so probably going to purchase.
Darphin also do lovely ones.
I read the same article 
simone, here you go:

I brought some coconut oil back from India so must use it.
How do you use as cleanser? Just rinse off with a hot cloth?
