If so which one and what's your skin type Grin

I do every evening. I use the clarins lotus oil and have combination skin which can be prone to hormonal breakouts. I use it after an acid tone before my moisturiser and it's made a difference with how oily my t zone gets in the day. Also smells divine!

Rosehip all is meant to be good

I use a variety of oils a couple of evenings a week with moisturiser, my favourites are one from diptyque which has rose petals in it, and a rosehip oil blend from farsali. Both were quite expensive but as you only need 4 drops per use they have lasted absolutely ages. Both have made a real difference to my skin and the dry/oily areas have evened out.

Almond oil (£2 for a massive bottle) my skin is sensitive and dry. The oil has calmed it and rehydrated it.

I have combination skin and use the tropics face oil. It's lush.

Pai's rosehip oil. Combination with cystic acne. Doesn't break me out and really helps with healing acne scars once acne has resolved.

I've just started using Neal's Yard Orange Facial Oil. It's lovely. My skin feels and looks amazing.

Not every day but if I'm feeling like I need a boost. Sometimes, if I'm not going out, I (horror) cleanse mid afternoon and slick on an oil and leave it til bed then just moisturize. Depends on my hormonal skin!

Sorry, I'm a Decleor oil addict!

Dontknowwhattodonowok · 04/10/2017 20:30

I don’t use it during day unless I’m hungover or under weather and my skin looks sad. I pat on a tiny bit under foundation to make myself look “glowy”. Smother it on at night though!

Decleor is amazing.

I have very dry skin and use balance me radiance oil morning and night. I love it.

Bitchfromhell · 04/10/2017 21:07

I use clarins blue orchid oil. I have combination skin with dreadful dehydration and fine lines. I just use a drop, anymore and make up slips down my face.
I like using an oil but probably won't buy this one again. I used to use a Dr. Haushka one that was much more gentle.

Before bed I'll oil cleanse with avocado oil, and then mix avocado and emu oil and massage my skin..then apply my moisturizer.

I don't do oils during the day though, it makes your sunscreen break down.

Grapeseed oil mixed with my moisturiser every morning.
Rosehip and grapeseed every evening.
I never use mineral oil nor oils with random blue dyes like that Sunday Riley stuff.
