Facial oil for men
October 7, 2014 – Marina Engervik
We recently launched Active Face Oil and Reload Night Serum - an all-natural face oil and night serum for men. Why? Because men need natural skin care too!
Our new facial oil has been carefully tested and formulated with men's skin in mind. It smells masculine and provides really good moisture to the skin, as well as active nutrition that rebuilds the skin and prevents premature aging. The oil will also protect the skin from the elements due to its high natural lipid content. Read more about lipids here >>
Why facial oil and not facial cream?
If you have to use just one product, we recommend oil. Oil absorbs faster into the skin, carries nutrients deep inside, and is lighter and quicker to use than a face cream. You only need to apply a few drops of oil, which will absorb immediately, thus avoiding a greasy feeling on the skin. But the skin will get the nourishment it needs, and it will become stronger and healthier.
HOW TO USE FACIAL OIL FOR MEN
CLEAN
No man polishes his car before washing it thoroughly. The same principle applies to your skin. You need to remove impurities and dirt before applying moisture and nourishment to your skin. This will avoid clogging your pores. You can wash your face with just lukewarm water, but the best thing is a gentle facial cleanser for men. Cleanse your skin both morning and evening followed by your facial oil!
GRID
The bottle of facial oil should always be shaken before use because the different ingredients have different "gravities" and do not stay mixed together. Shake it well so that you get all the good ingredients in every drop.
BUTTER
Pour 4-6 drops into your hand and apply all over your face. This often looks and feels like very little, but you want the oil to soak into your skin and not sit on top of it. Your skin will only absorb what it needs from the oil. If you feel like the oil is not soaking in, you have most likely used too many drops.
Can facial oil be combined with cream? It is absolutely possible to use facial oil as a serum to provide extra nourishment under the cream. Then apply the oil first, then the cream. Read more about the difference between facial oil and facial cream .
