If you don’t use face oil then please be under 30 and have oily skin.
I used to think face oils were as useful as snake oil. I am, however, now sold on this nighttime beauty product and wish wish wish someone had told me about it earlier. Pour or drop some on to your hands/fingertips (don’t be too stingey) and rub until a little warm and place over your face. I like to rest it on my face before pressing a little (this probably doesn’t do anything spectacular but I feel more like in a spa)… wait til it sinks in a little and then apply moisturiser over.
It. Is. Amazing.
If I forget to do this at night, I can tell the next morning. I kid you not. I’ve tried many (of course) and the only one I would NOT recommend is Argan oil products (Argan really is snake oil, don’t fall for it Emperor and your New Clothes).
Big Bucks, about £48
Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair (image above).
This is my favourite. It is ace, super ace. I use every night and it easily lasts 4-5 months.
How much?? About £35
Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Oil
More reasonably priced and just as good as the Estee Lauder, I just think it takes a little longer to apply. It does last longer than the Estee Lauder though. Hmm, maybe I should go back to using this instead…
Slightly cheaper, about £32
Clarins Face Treatment Oil
Good, yes it is “good”. I have a friend that prefers this to Kiehl’s, but I disagree. For a couple of quid, it’s worth upgrading.
Budget baby, about £6 (honestly)
Marks & Spencer Super Active Overnight Oil
Yes! I know! My sister and I have been secretly diving into M+S make-up for years. It has always been of high quality and the lippies sometimes receive more of a response than Tom Ford. This oil is fab, does the trick nicely. I’m hitting 40 though so want to indulge a little more which is why I pay out for the top-end stuff. This is a good product to try out first and see if you like it.
Enjoy!
