Facial oils nourish the skin and provide it with fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants. These valuable substances nourish and protect your skin for a long-lasting natural glow. Make sure it's a facial oil made from plant oils, as these are metabolized by your skin. If you use mineral oils, it's like eating cardboard. You'll get full, but you won't be giving your body anything to metabolize.

Facial oils should always be applied to a damp face so that they are quickly absorbed and can develop their nourishing effect. Apply the facial oil directly after washing and massage it in gently. For an additional care effect, you can use a plant hydrolate instead of water, which you spray on. However, the facial oil is absorbed most quickly in combination with the moisturizing FIVE facial serum. Mix one drop of face oil with two drops of serum in the palm of your hand and apply both products together.

Not directly. Facial oils do not moisturize, but they help retain water in the skin. They do this in two ways. First, high quality plant oils, like those found in natural facial oils, are related to the fats in our skin. They are metabolized by it and can integrate into the skin barrier. An intact skin barrier protects your skin from water loss, which is stored in the deeper layers of the skin. Second, facial oils also protect against moisture loss on the skin's surface. The light film that forms after the oil is applied seals and thus retains water in the skin. Note: Because facial oils are not directly moisturizing, it is important to apply them on moistened skin.

A classic face cream consists of water (the main ingredient) and oils, which are combined by emulsifiers to form an emulsion. The ideal composition for our skin, because it needs moisture and fat. However, the cream concept requires a number of excipients such as emulsifiers, consistency enhancers and preservatives. All components that we find in the cream not because of their positive effect for the skin, but to keep the product stable. A facial oil, on the other hand, does not need any of these. It consists exclusively of nourishing plant oils and comes completely without fillers, preservatives and additives. Facial oils are the secret stars in skin care: pure plant power for maximum effect.

Unless you are under 25 years old, yes. With increasing age, the water content in the skin and its ability to retain moisture decreases. Therefore, a facial oil alone is no longer sufficient, the skin needs additional water-binding substances such as hyaluronic acid or glycerin. That's why it's best to combine your facial oil with the moisturizing FIVE facial serum, which additionally hydrates your skin and ensures that it looks plump and fresh.

Face or body oils based on natural plant oils do not dry out the skin, quite the opposite! However, you must observe the handling so that your skin can absorb the valuable fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants. Therefore, care oils always belong on the still damp skin. This creates a spontaneous emulsion that nourishes and cares for your skin. Take your time to massage the care oils well into your skin and you will see that the result is anything but dry.
