1) If you have oily skin, you shouldn't use face oils

Surprise! Plant oils actually help rebalance oily skin.

2) Foaming cleansers are better than oils for skin cleaning

Oils remove even the toughest waterproof mascara, while still doing good by skin's natural barrier.

3) Face oils aren't as good as moisturisers when it comes to hydrating skin

Oils actually penetrate skin easier, so they help moisturize skin more effectively.

4) Face oils are too rich and thick to be used daily

High quality plant oils have a natural affinity with skin, so they can be used both day and night.

5) Face oils will cause your makeup to streak

Depending on how you layer it, face oil can be your best friend when it comes to getting an all-over glow.
