Why is it better to apply Facial Oil onto damp skin?

Ever wondered why we recommend applying our Facial Oils onto damp skin?

Our sensitive skin experts, Kirsti and Kate, explain:

Damp skin is more receptive to products. This is why we recommend applying cleanser onto dry skin, as we want the opposite to happen!

When a product like a moisturiser or oil is applied to damp skin, more moisture can be sealed in thanks to the water sitting on the skin’s surface.

A little extra moisture also helps fatty oils, like our Rosehip BioRegenerate Oil,  go further – preventing the skin from becoming overloaded.”

However avoid applying Oils onto skin that’s dripping with water, as the product may become too diluted before being able to penetrate.

A few spritzes of our BioAffinity Skin Tonics provide the perfect amount of moisture, while also providing the skin with vitamins, minerals and amino acids.

We also suggest applying your Rosehip BioRegenerate Oil or Echium & Amaranth Age Confidence Oil at night.

Kirsti explains why:

Warmer skin will also help your products absorb better.

Our basal temperature increases at night making it the perfect time to apply more active ingredients like those found in a serum or oil.”
