Any questions?
Our experts have the answer
Face oils are full of incredible benefits for your skin. Clarins draws inspiration from the world’s many natural gems, extracting all the nutritive goodness from the planet's most precious plants to give your skin the care it deserves.
What is a face oil?
Can I use a face oil if I have oily or combination skin?
Yes, you can. There is a popular misconception that face oils are only for dry skin. Oil for the face is suitable for all skin types and ages. Clarins’ plant-based face oils are 100% natural and are the best beauty booster we know for dry, dehydrated, combination, and oily skin alike.
Clarins offers specific oils for the face designed to rebalance and purify oily skin. For example, our Lotus Treatment Oil is formulated with extracts of Rosemary, Geranium, and Lotus, which help tighten pores, purify the epidermis, and reduce the appearance of shine. Using the correct skincare oil can actually help signal to your skin that it has enough oil, helping to balance natural oil production.
The Blue Orchid Treatment Oil is ideal for hydrating dehydrated skin, creating a facial that restores vitality, glow, and freshness. The Santal Treatment Oil, meanwhile, nourishes and soothes skin that is dry and prone to redness.
How to use face oil in a skincare routine
Face oils should be applied to perfectly cleansed skin.
- Once you have finished removing your makeup with a cleanser, apply a toner. to rebalance the skin pH. Then continue the routine with serum and moisturiser. Apply a few drops of the beauty oil as the final step, and gently massage the oil into your damp skin.
- You can use facial oils in addition to your neck and décolleté cream to help with the signs of aging.
Our expert beauty tips:
- Blend a couple of drops directly into your moisturiser for a hydrating boost that's less intense than using oil alone.
- Apply after moisturiser and before foundation for a glowing, hydrated base.
Should I use a face treatment oil during the day or at night?
Face treatment oil is suitable for both day and night use, but most people prefer to use it as a night face oil.
Applying it in the evening allows the concentrated ingredients to work intensively with the skin's natural regeneration process.
However, a few drops can be mixed into your foundation or day cream for an extra dewy finish and hydration boost during the day.
How long will one bottle of Clarins luxury face oil last?
A little bit of luxury face oil goes a long way. Since only a few drops (2–3) are needed per application, our facial oil standard bottle of 30ml can last for several months, even with daily use.
