Face oil recommendations

41 replies

I’m looking to try a new face oil as I’m running low on the three I’m currently cycling between.
I’m currently using and like:
•Decleor Neroli - used for years
•Wild Source Miracle Oil - first bottle from Liberty advent
•DISCIPLE Skincare Good Skin Face Oil - second bottle. Not quite as hydrating as the ones above.

What should I try next? I like a really nourishing oil that will hydrate for hours. Sometimes I even put body balm on my face because I love it to look and feel really, well, oily 😂

I like the Biossance squalane and vitamin C rose oil, but that might not be heavy enough for you.

I do remember really liking the Augustinus Bader face oil too having had samples a couple of times, and that's very rich and hydrating but the price is nuts.

Love the Biossance, it's my favourite. I agree it's on the lighter end of the spectrum l, though.

Yes the Nuxe one is great, it goes on my face, hands, decolletage, and ends of my hair after a shower

I love the Nuxe one but I mainly use it on my hair. Occasionally I use it on my body. Is it OK for face too?

I hope so! I just use the absolute tiniest drop

I do two sprays into my palms rubbed together then over chest neck and face stroking upwards, finally a bit on my hair! Absolutely love the smell and how soft my skin is the morning after!

Thank you everyone. I enjoy reading about beauty products almost as much as I love trying them and so will read up about all of your recommendations.
This thread has also reminded that I have some Nuxe oil in that I haven’t used yet.

I use Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse dry oil (the original version) every night over serum and night cream. Smells lovely and never makes me break out. They do a floral scent one too that is really nice and I’ve seen on offer at the min. Hopefully this will work!

I am allergic to this stuff. Gives me eczema on my eyelids (though I don't use it on my eyelids!) I don't generally have sensitive skin so I was really surprised by it.

Zoe Bee Gold Cream is lovely, gives a nice sheen, I need to wait about 10 - 15 minutes before applying anything on top or it’s too oily for me.

I also use Grumm Prickly Pear oil at night.

I love this Rituals one www.rituals.com/en-gb/the-ritual-of-namaste-restoring-face-oil-1116410.html?source=cop&showbacklink=false
Smells amazing too.

I buy vit e capsules. Break them open and add 2 drops of lavender essential oils in the palm of my hand and massage my face with it.
I prefer this to Clarins or Decleor oils.
