CAN I USE A FACE OIL FOR OILY SKIN?

Yes! If you have oily skin, you can still benefit from using the right face oil. The purpose of a face oil is to help promote a barrier to maintain a healthy balance of oil and water in all skin types. If you have a healthy balance of oil and water in your skin and therefore a strong natural barrier, this can help to prevent the appearance of dullness, redness and dehydration, promoting balance, even tone, softness, smoothness and a glowing look.

If you have oily skin, a non-greasy, non-comedogenic face oil, like Charlotte’s Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil, will suit you best, as it will work alongside your skin’s natural oils to help balance the look of your complexion, lock in moisture and help support the feel of soft and supple skin, without feeling greasy, heavy or oily.



THE BENEFITS OF FACE OIL FOR OILY SKIN

Oily skin can still be dehydrated, and one of the main benefits of a face oil is that it can provide nourishing hydration and moisturisation to your skin for a radiant, healthy appearance.

Alongside this, applying Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil regularly can help EVERY skin type and complexion appear plumper, smoother and more radiant, while visibly reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil is enriched with a vitamin rich base of oils and fatty acids to nourish and moisturise, supercharged actives like Cocoyl Hydrolysed Collagen for a plumping, firming effect, plus calming essential oils for a relaxing, soothing, spa-like experience.

HOW TO USE FACE OIL FOR OILY SKIN

For all skin types, you should apply Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil as the last step in your skincare routine, with or after your moisturizer. Discover the magic skincare tutorial below to learn how to use face oil for oily skin…

  1. A fair-tone brunette model applying a pearlescent serum with a dropper on her face.

    MAGIC STEP 1: SERUM

    On cleansed skin, massage Charlotte’s Magic Serum Crystal Elixir into your skin. This face serum is enriched with potent ingredients including Polyglutamic Acid to hydrate and Golden Vitamin C for a brightening-effect. The lightweight formula means it’s suitable for oily skin!

  2. A deep-tone brunette model with glowy, flawless skin applying a fawn-coloured, nourishing eye cream and holding the petite eye cream jar in her other hand.

    MAGIC STEP 2: EYE CARE

    Next, treat your delicate eye area to one, or both of Charlotte’s eye care products; Cryo-Recovery Eye Serum and Magic Eye Rescue. Cryo-Recovery Eye Serum is magic for your morning routine, as the cooling metal applicator helps to soothe, depuff and awaken the look of your eyes. Magic Eye Rescue is Charlotte’s award-winning eye cream that helps to hydrate, smooth and brighten the appearance of your under-eyes – use after Cryo-Recovery Eye Serum.

    MAGIC STEP 3: MIX A SMALL AMOUNT OF FACE OIL WITH YOUR MOISTURIZER

    The best way to use face oil for oily skin is to mix with your moisturizer. For your morning routine, mix a drop or two of Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil with your Charlotte’s Magic Cream before applying to your skin.

    For your night skincare routine, mix your face oil with a small amount of Magic Night Cream. Apply 20 minutes before going to sleep to allow the ingredients in the oil and the elixir-balm formula of Magic Night Cream to sink into your skin.

    Tilbury Tip: For extra oily skin types, Charlotte recommends only using Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil once a day, either in the morning or evening, and swapping your morning moisturizer for Charlotte’s Magic Cream Light – a lighter-textured formula that’s great for oilier skin types.
