Sure, cold weather can exacerbate the problem, but dry, flaky skin is a year-round nuisance. Whether you’ve just started your journey with Tretinoin, have always had dry skin, or even experience eczema, tight, uncomfortable skin can be annoying, at best.
Luckily, if this sounds familiar, there are a few solutions on the market that can help you combat that feeling of dehydration and the dullness that comes with it. Using a good moisturizer is only half the battle; we’re here to tell you that face oils are a great addition to your skin-care routine that can help you stay on top of your dry skin.
Regardless of your skin type, face oils can actually be really beneficial to both your skin-care and makeup routines. For the former, they can act as a sealant to lock in all of the hydration you packed on in the earlier steps in your regimen. In the latter example, they can help you achieve that radiant, glowy makeup that you see all over social media. That’s right, there was likely an oil used somewhere in that skin-prep cocktail. Not to mention, they can even help people with oily skin reduce the amount of sebum that their skin naturally produces – just make sure to look for noncomedogenic options.
So, if you’re interested in trying out a new product, we made it easy and rounded up a few of the best face oils on the market. From vegan choices from brands like Drunk Elephant to luxe picks from Rodin, you’ll want to read more about these favorites ahead.
