Using a face oil as a moisturizing step in your skincare routine can be beneficial no matter what type of skin you have. Not only are they usually much more hydrating than cream moisturizers for dry skin, but they can actually decrease sebum production in oily skin. Plus, many face oils are full of antioxidants and fatty acids, which help with inflammation and keep your skin smoother and younger looking.

If you’re thinking about trying an oil because you want that natural glow, but are afraid it will leave your skin feeling greasy, we recommend these face oils that are super absorbent and will make you look great.
