It took me a minute to come around to face mists, which—let's be honest—may appear to be nothing much more than atomized H20 to many of you. In short, a total waste of time and money. But hear me out: the ones you’ll see here are brimming with skin-loving ingredients, calming Rosewater, and even water from the French Alps. Just ONE spritz on my just cleansed and bare face was enough to change my life (and skin) forever. How you ask? Well...it instantly makes me feel revived, comes to my rescue at work when all I want to do is a nap after lunch and cools, soothes and hydrates my complexion when I need a midday pick-me-up. Ahead, a bunch of facial mists that you are bound to love: 1. AVENE THERMAL SPRING WATER Think of it as water, but with supernatural powers. It’s packed with skin-softening silicates and has a balanced dose of Calcium and Magnesium that work together to improve skin's texture and strengthen its barrier. Plus, its pH level of 7.5, ma...

SO WHICH FACE OIL SHOULD YOU USE?

-


Right facial oil can be absolutely life-changing, whether they’re concocted from a base of Marula, Coconut or Rosehip, their restorative and hydrating powers supersede sundry skin creams and lotions.  The best part? They suit all skin types—even oily and acne-prone skin. The idea may seem insane right? The right composition and ingredients can combat greasiness and also help stabilize and regulate your skin’s sebum production (i.e. your natural skin oil). For best results, look for oils with a smaller molecular size, like Argan, Marula, or Jojoba oils because they sink into the skin quickly without clogging pores.




What exactly are facial oils?


The oils that are brimming with antioxidants that offer a world of skincare payoffs. Oils are emollients, which means they hang out at the surface of the skin and reach the topmost layer of the epidermis rather than sinking in deep like creams do. Even better, besides, providing just surface hydration, they create a protective barrier against environmental stressors and improve the texture and quality of the skin.

When should you use one?


Make sure to use a facial oil as the very last step in your routine in the a.m, and p.m.

Which one is for you?



For Dry Skin


If your skin is in desperate need of some hydration, facial oils containing Marula, Coconut or Squalene are ideal because they condition skin, lock in moisture, and reduce irritation from dryness. If you have dry skin, try using a Hyaluronic acid infused moisturizer alongside the facial oil to plump skin and replenish moisture loss.

1. NYKAA NATURALS PURE COLD-PRESSED FACIAL OIL - MARULA


Packed with a heavy dose of fatty acids, Marula oil instantly absorbs into skin, yet is still rich enough to moisturize and calm your dry skin all day long. The high concentration of omega fatty acids ensures it soothes irritation without feeling greasy.






2. KAMA AYURVEDA JWALINI RETEXTURISING SKIN TREATMENT


Formulated with natural herbs, Coconut milk, and Sesame oil to leave you with a smooth, refined and radiant complexion. The herbal ingredients, including Costus and Cardamom, when used in tandem, enhance skin texture and reduce skin irritation.









For Oily Skin


If you suffer frequent shine attacks or acne outbreaks, you need face oils to calm those over-active sebum glands. We’re talking lightweight elixirs that balance out oil production while soothing and moisturizing your skin. Jojoba, Tea Tree, Squalane, and Marula oils are perfect choices because they are light in texture and balance sebum levels without making the skin greasy. Other low-comedogenic oils including Argan, Buckthorn, Kukui, and Rosehip are also good options.

1. THE BODY SHOP TEA TREE OIL


The powerful antibacterial properties of this miracle oil soothe skin, treat acne, and unclog pores, all in one go! With powerful skin purifying properties, this purest and potent concentration of Tea Tree Oil targets blemishes, remove impurities, and mattifies your skin.






2. KIEHL'S DAILY REVIVING CONCENTRATE


This light, non-greasy combination of Sunflower, Ginger root, and Tamanu Oils unclogs skin and leaves it moisturized. It also provides antioxidant protection from morning tonight. All you need are 3-4 drops!










For Acne-Prone Skin


Breakouts are a fallout of clogged, overactive oil glands. Acne-prone skins need supplemental oils such as Squalane, Jojoba, and Tea Tree that stabilize oil production without drying skin out. These facial oils also contain ingredients that kill acne-causing bacteria and slough off dead skin cells. Result: fewer breakouts and flare-ups. 

1. NYKAA NATURALS PURE COLD-PRESSED FACIAL OIL - JOJOBA


Not only is Jojoba oil incredibly light-weight and breathable, but it also gets absorbed into the skin without blocking pores, making it perfect for acne-prone skin. It’s high Vitamin E and B complex content makes it the ideal anti-inflammatory, skin repair formula for blemishes and redness.





2. JUICY CHEMISTRY COLD PRESSED ROSEHIP OIL


Rosehip oil is a miracle worker for acne-prone skin. It’s replete with fatty acids and antioxidants that soothe irritation, fade acne scars, balance out oil production, and keep your skin happy overall.










For Normal Skin


You can use any facial oil under the sun without having to worry about clogged pores, dry patches, or nasty breakouts. However, as a general rule, avoid using oils that are too heavy.  All you need to do is take a few drops of the facial oil and mix it with your moisturizer before application.

1. NYKAA NATURALS PURE COLD-PRESSED FACIAL OILS


This range of pure cold-pressed oils from around the world offers numerous benefits for skin, hair, and nails. Suitable for every skin type and concern, the range has a host of oils for every skin type, and if you’re doubtful about which face oil to opt for, pick the Vitamin E infused Argan facial oil that’s non-greasy and lightweight. It’s best suited for all skin types, from oily, sensitive, and acne-prone to normal, mature, and blemished skin.




2. ST.BOTANICA RETINOL 2.5% + VITAMIN E & HYALURONIC ACID PROFESSIONAL FACIAL SERUM


If you’re in your 30’s or older, it's best to start using retinol infused formula like this one. A blend of 17 active ingredients, this gentle vegan formula minimizes the appearance of wrinkles, improves uneven skin tone and restores firmness and radiance to the skin. It also repairs sun damage, pigmentation, and uneven skin texture.
