Why You Need a Facial Oil in Your Skin Routine

We all know we need a moisturizer, but a facial oil is one of those skincare steps that hasn’t yet built the same star reputation. However, we’re here to tell you that adding a facial oil to your skincare routine can be one of the best and easiest ways to upgrade your skincare routine and give you a glow-up overnight. Facial oils are one of the best ways to moisturize and lock in hydration, and you’ll be happy to know there’s one to suit every skin type.

Here are five reasons we never skip facial oil:

 

  • Facial Oils Help Brighten and Even Skin Tone

Facial oils are packed with essential fatty acids, omegas, vitamins, and nutrients that help stimulate collagen production and promote cell turnover. In turn, this can help speed up the fading of post-pimple marks while also smoothing textured skin. We’re big fans of rosehip seed oil, which is rich in vitamins A and C, making it one of the most effective oils that help to brighten skin and even out skin tone. It’s also one of the reasons we had to include it in our Nourishing Oil Serum, which is fast-absorbing and leaves no greasy residue while providing restorative fatty acids.

  • Facial Oils Give You the Ultimate Glow

Hydration is key to glowing, dewy skin, and facial oils deliver this in abundance. They are rich in brightening antioxidants, like vitamin C, which leave your skin radiant and protect it from aging free radicals. Applying a facial oil after a serum or moisturizer can help seal in moisture, ensuring your skin stays hydrated all day and night.

  • There’s a Facial Oil for Every Skin Type

Regardless of what you might have heard, even oily or acne-prone skin types can benefit from facial oils. Dehydration can affect any skin type, and facial oils are one of the best ways to replenish moisture. Jojoba oil is a unique oil that mimics the skin’s natural sebum, which makes it especially good for oily skin types, as it helps to balance oil production. If you have dry skin, facial oils are an absolute must! 

Our AK Pure Skin Nourishing Oil Serum is nourishing and hydrating enough for normal and dry skin types but not too heavy for oily skin, thanks to the base of jojoba oil, making it an incredible facial oil for all skin types. It’s also enriched with hydrating squalane, nourishing meadowfoam oil, soothing hemp seed oil, rejuvenating avocado oil, and moisturizing apricot kernel oil, grapeseed and sunflower oil to leave your skin hydrated, plumped, and super glowy. 

  •  Facial Oils Help Strengthen the Skin Barrier

Having a strong skin barrier is essential for healthy skin. The skin barrier acts as the first line of defense to keep your skin healthy, so when it’s compromised, it can make your skin dehydrated and more susceptible to bacteria and inflammation. Thankfully, facial oils are loaded with essential fatty acids that strengthen the skin barrier, help reduce inflammation, and promote healthy skin cell turnover. 

  • Facial Oils Protect Against Environmental Damage

Facial oils are rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that neutralize damaging free radicals and minimize the impact of environmental stressors on the skin by creating a protective barrier. This is especially helpful for anyone who spends time in the sun or the city, as UV exposure and pollution can accelerate signs of aging, like dryness, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines. 

So, whether you have dry, oily, or combination skin, you won’t regret adding a facial oil to your skincare routine!
