I spent years putting whatever oil I was using on as my last step thinking I was "sealing" everything in, and well because that's what the internet told me. I've since changed my ways- catering to the oil- and I've noticed a big difference, and less oil wasted on my pillow. I do think you have to see what works for your skin and there isn't really an explicitly wrong way as neither have negative results, but I do think there's an inherently more beneficial order to apply them depending on what type of oil you are using. But again there's lot of wiggle room as it all depends on your products. What's in your moisturizer, what you want to get out of using the oil etc. As a general guideline the lighter higher in linoleic acid oils perform at their highest when using before your occlusive moisturizer or mixed, but definitely not after. These oils (rosehip, sunflower, hemp, safflower, primrose, grape seed...) are more unsaturated and actually rebuild the lipid layer and repair the skin barrier while having a lower occlusive nature. If used AFTER, due to the occlusive properties of the moisturizer, the light oil wouldn't penetrate to it's fullest potential, if much at all. As the moisturizer would likely be more occlusive than a more linoleic rich oil. You'd still see benefits but certainly not all it can do. The more saturated higher in oleic acid oils (avocado, macadamia, shea, almond) have emollient properties also but mostly do their work via their occlusive nature, making sense why these oils would go on last as a sealant. Jojoba and argan are somewhat balanced in linoleic and oliec acids. I'm stopping there because I just wrote an essay on face oils at 4am, send help.

My wrinkles are less apparent and my skin feels so re-energized! you can read more about the review here --> sowourplanet.com/kiehls-midnight-recovery-review/ I feel so much more confident and younger now!

I love this!!! Thank you so much for all the information 🌸

Thanks so much for this video! I was hesitant to use face oils in my routine, since my skin is already combination oily and I thought it would make it worse. This video helped clear things up!

I didn't thought oils were necessary but now after watching this I will definitely incorporate oils in my skincare routine. You guys really give lots of information in detail I really love it. Thank you.

Great video on demystifying face oils, a lot of misconceptions on what they are and how to use them. I learned a lot

I love facial oils!! My skin is normal but I actually love the ‘glowy’ oily look. I used to use oils as the last step but now I apply it immediately after my serums before my moisturiser. I feel like it helps retain moisture more and I get more benefits from the oil. ❤️

your videos are a god send. there are so so so many skin care videos done by random people who have no idea what they're talking about and they do a poor job of explaining everything. you do so much more than just recommend random, sponsored products. you really explain the whole process and why each product is important, why it's good or bad for you. it's so refreshing to finally have found a channel that really helps you understand skincare.

I had to pause to say this “thanks Rowena, Felicia, Mia and the team for all this free information.Don’t know if I have said this before. I am so glad I started my skin care journey with y’all.

A. Cerave and cetaphil are very similar, good for people with eczema or on roaccutane or just with sensitive skin. They are recommended by doctors/derms Aveeno is just really moisturising and doesn’t have any additives First aid beauty has a range of different products that all do different things

Cerave is the best!!! I use it as my cleanser and as my base moisturizer because it’s mild enough and hydrating to combine with my more complicated serums and oils.

I swear by the Aveeno moisturizing bar soap for my face. Oat is the first ingredient out of about ten which is awesome. It leaves my skin clean and smooth without drying. I also can’t live without their makeup removing wipes. My sister uses the aveeno spf 30 moisturizer and from trying it out, it’s just OK. I’m not a fan of two in one spf/moist.’s. Aveeno has a few awesome products just with anything, be weary of the ingredients list. Pull your phone out while shopping to search each individual ingredient if you have to. The more effort you put into familiarizing yourself with ingredients, the easier it will be to discern what is right/wrong for your skin. And it does get easier 😊

Wow, thank you for this impressive information ❤️

Thank you ladies so much for this info. I’ve always loved using oils, now o have more of a grasp of what and how I should use them. I’m waiting for my Mizon Snail 🐌 repair set and I’m so ready to try the whole Korean skin care regimen. I have acne prone/mature skin (I’ll be 38 next Saturday) so I have scars, fine lines, wrinkles, dark under eyes, the whole negative shabang. 😳 I’m hoping the Korean skin care will help. Wish me good luck 👍🏽

Love your tips! Could you do one video with only your drugstore favorite skin products? Step by step of the routine?

So I just found your channel and I'M OBSESSED!!! I love that you guys have the science behind it, too. I'm totally binging on AALLLLLL your videos but I did want to add (on the off chance you'll actually read this comment) is that your skin doesn't "get used" to products. When the LUNA oil doesn't give you any more improvement, it means you've exhausted it's benefits and need to either increase your frequency of use for every day OR bump up to a higher level of retinol. ... So excited to see the rest of the vids!

As always, your explanation is easy to understand 😊thank you

Same with your moisturizer. Moisturizers are most effective when skin is still damp, as damp skin best absorbs the moisture and locks it in for a longer time. After washing your face, don’t towel-dry. Instead, apply your moisturizer to damp skin, which can help lock in hydration. Use the same technique when it comes to your body as well. Once you hop out of the shower, resist the urge to wrap yourself in a towel for a minute or two longer and apply body lotion while you’re still damp. Pay particular attention to areas like your knees, elbows, and feet, which tend to get drier and rougher than the skin on the rest of your bod. I have dry, sensitive, mature skin and I use the CeraVe Moisturizing Cream (water-based) on my whole body from head to toes. I use this method and my skin has never been happier. When I used it on my DRY skin, it felt like it just sat on the surface of my skin with attitude. On WET skin, the dampness of my skin helps the slip in my application and I use a fraction of product and it melts right in!
