Facial oil or serum?

A serum is applied after your cleanser and lotion, but before your moisturizer. They come in a range of textures, from fluids to gels, and are traditionally water-based, making them lighter and able to penetrate the skin's surface - unlike oil-based creams and lotions, which remain on the skin's surface. They generally contain concentrated quantities of active ingredients and are designed to meet the skin's specific needs, which can range from radiance to hydration and sebum control.

Finally, serums are water-based and can be used as a complement to oils... or moisturizers!

As its name suggests,facial oil is a blend of plant oils that act as emollients, sealing in moisture to the skin. Their other properties then differ, depending on the type of plant oils that go to make up the treatment oil. For example, jojoba oil has a regulating effect, while avocado oil is highly nourishing, making it ideal for dry skin. In terms of use, we recommend applying it in the evening, alone or with a serum. It can also be used in the morning, but in this case, it should be reserved for normal to dry, chronically dehydrated skin, and rather at the end of the routine, to obtain a "shield" effect.

Which oil is best for the skin?

If you have dehydrated skin, choose a skincare oil based on avocado or coconut oil, which have strong nourishing properties, such as thePlumping Oil Oh My Cream Skincare, a creamy oil that smoothes the skin's surface and protects thanks to a cocktail of antioxidant active ingredients.

What's the best oil for moisturizing the skin?

Skin type and moisture level determine the frequency offacial oil application.

A skincare oil with many virtues: nourishing, anti-aging and balancing, capable of correcting marks, blemishes and fine lines.
Normal skin is the skin we all dream of: balanced, neither too oily nor too dry, with a smooth, even texture and a uniform complexion - in short, the ultimate goal! To preserve the balance of normal skin, the ideal is to use a gentle almond oil . Recommended frequency of use is 2-3 times a week.

For combination to oily skin to regain a healthy appearance, the skin's water/oil ratio must be rebalanced. This means nourishing and moisturizing the skin, and avoiding abrasive products. Try Lapis Facial Oil Anti-Imperfections Herbivore, a facial oil with blue chamomile that decongests pores while smoothing and softening the skin, restoring balance and hydration. Contrary to popular belief, oily skin needs to be nourished and moisturized.
