Why oils should be in your beauty routine

Oils can be used for any skin type. Having oily skin can be a huge bummer. Skincare needs extra attention. Sometimes, it even limits what products can be used. However, natural oils are great for all skin types, oily skin included! It sounds crazy, but jojoba oil has been found to sometimes help balance the body’s natural oil production.

There are a lot of different ways to use oils for skincare. Some oils break down makeup, so it makes a great wash at the end of the day. Oils can also be used to make skin look fresh and dewy. Face creams are great, but it’s just a topical fix. They don’t get completely absorbed by the skin. Translation: you’re not getting as much moisture from creams as you think you are. But skin easily absorbs oils, leading to soft skin that’s optimally moisturized skin.

Oils are versatile. If you’re still cautious about using oil on your skin, that’s okay! There are still a lot of ways to incorporate oils into your beauty routine without using it on your skin. Oils can be used to give hair extra shine in just seconds. Not to mention it can also tame flyaway hairs. Some oils even have the power to protect hair from salt and chlorine. Celebrity stylists swear by adding a coconut oil mixture to hair before hitting the beach or pool to block the hair from absorbing salt or chlorine.
