Our mothers all told us that skin care and oil were never good companions. In fact, it was considered a no-no by doctors and dermatologists alike. We learned that oil is not good for skin or hair care. Oil only clogs pores, and creates acne, black and whiteheads, and all sorts of skin complaints. And of course, one should never use oil on hair! However, times have changed. In fact, dermatologists, beauty specialists, and even Hollywood have started to sing the praises of facial oils for a daily skincare regime. Why the change of heart - well, certain facial oils possess the capability to turn dull, lifeless complexions into radiant, healthy ones. It's just a matter of understanding the best ones to use. For facial oils to work for your complexion it is first best to start with only a quality oil. Never use mineral oil, lanolin, or cheap carrier oils that are often found in flea markets, cheap online sites, or even drug stores. Inferior oils have the tendency to clog pores and exacerbate problem skin. Too often they are not natural and have chemical ingredients or worse, petroleum byproducts... i.e. mineral oil. Also, it is important to understand the doses to be used; too much will simply be difficult for your skin to absorb leaving that unattractive unwanted greasy, shiny skin look. Do your homework to learn about some of the quality oils that are available and their benefits. Make sure you purchase from a reputable company or brand and always read the label. If it includes PET, mineral oil, parabens, silicon, and lots of chemical names you have never heard of then it is most likely not pure and certainly not organic. The highest quality facial oils have beneficial properties that can help remove and regulate excess oil (sebum) production in the dermis, provide valuable hydration and moisturizing which helps improve the skin tissue, reduce the signs of aging, and provide an overall luster to dull and dry skin. There are many carrier or base oils available including, grape seed, apricot, almond, avocado, and coconut. All have varying benefits and degrees of vitamin E. My favorites are a few of those below:
