Why You Need To Invest In The New Facial Oils

This year Facial Oils are a skincare must have this year.

Ok not just Skincare buy also a Makeup bag must have and I'm going to tell you why!

Years ago lots of people wouldn't touch facial oils, just the people with dry skin.

Well now its proven to balance out every skin type and its a new Spring Trend for a makeup looks also.

So I'm a BIG believer of skincare routines as you all know, and hopefully those who have changed into one also then you will see the benefits and how much better your makeup sits and appears on your skin just because you have a good skincare routine.

Now add an oil to your skincare and see a change in the youthfulness and radiance in your skin!

Facial oils are amazing for ALL skin types to balance out your natural oils and help correct any uneven texture and controlling your natural oils which most of them we have to purify to balance out to a normal skin type.

Where Facials oils would mainly be used; Cleanse, Tone, FACIAL OIL, Moisturise.

You wouldn't so much need a serum in your skin regime when using oils as it has so many benefits but just switch routines for morning and night maybe if you still want to use your serums.

Don't know how much to apply? 3-6 drops is ample for your face and neck.

Don't drown your skin, your skin knows how much it can absorb, so test it out.

Top tip - Oils do not need to be rubbed into the skin. 

Apply your drops onto the palm of your hands, rub your hands together to warm up and spread the oil  then apply to the face in a sweeping motion and finishing with pressing the oil into the skin.

Heres an AMAZING photo about what oils work best for what skin type…

Now the exciting part…

Facial oils are now becoming a must-have for our makeup bags too!

We are mixing them in foundation to give us a radiant glow (without looking greasy)

Also mixing them in out under eye concealers to give us a natural highlight in a downwards triangle, this will need to be set with powder right under the eye area only - to prevent creasing.

Adding oils to highlighted areas only - such as cheekbones, browbone, cupids bow and anywhere else you want to add a natural radiance.

A fab one which is similar for this look is mixing the oil with a metallic pigment to create an intense metallic glow and even a metallic highlight which patting in with our ring finger to give a softer look.

Then one of my favourites, mixing it with our lipsticks and swaying away from a matte lip into a glossy lip but without the stickiness! How much better can it get.

You now see why Spring is one of my favourite seasons when it comes to makeup, as everything gets brighter and fresher and I suppose more natural? Dare I say…

So get a facial oil in your beauty bags for 2017, you'll find multiple ways to use it.

Heres what I grabbed this week to use for multiple make up reasons and an addition to my kit.
