The Skin Boosting Benefits A Good Facial Oil

If you've never tried a Facial Oil now is a great time to give it a go.

There's two reasons I wouldn't be without one. The first is the massive boost of moisturisation that they deliver and  the second is the high levels of anti-oxidants they contain to fight free radical damage and skin ageing. However there's one other massive benefit to using a facial oil and that's the fact that it makes a wonderful massage medium, but more of that later.

Our new Replenishing Facial Oil with Lunaria and Meadow Flower oils, is a unique blend of very special oils. Lunaria Seed Oil comes from the Honesty plant which is loved by bees. This oil is light and silky but has a high level of lineloic acid which restores moisturise to the skin and helps to protect it from the environment. The other oils in the blend all come from bee-friendly flowers such as Borage and Camelina. 

You only need to use a little of the oil to deeply replenish dry, thirsty skin to reduce dehydration and smooth the complexion. A more hydrated skin is more light -reflective and therefore looks healthier, and dare I say it, younger.

You can use a facial Oil alone or under a moisturiser. I use mine at night before bed and in the day time under my moisturiser if my skin is feeling particularly dry. You can also add a drop to foundation if you're wearing make up just to give it a more moisturising, less heavy texture.

Using a Facial Oil before bed becomes part of a skin care ritual that's easy to adopt and will give you huge benefits. The skin needs a good blood supply to nourish it and effective lymphatic drainage to remove toxins and dead cells. A two minute massage with your facial oil will boost essential oxygen and nutrients for cell regeneration .

Facial Massage Routine

Use two to three drops of oil and warm in the palm of your hand. Pat a little of the oil onto your throat, chin, cheeks and forehead. Begin massaging in upward strokes outwards, toward the ears and hair line. Use circular movements on the forehead with the pads of your fingertips. Repeat until the oil is soaked in but avoid the eye area and dragging the skin.
