Face Oils

A face oil does not replace a moisturiser – it works differently. An oil does not give the skin water; it keeps the water already there and fills the lipid gap in the skin barrier. That is why an oil goes on top of a cream, or mixed with it, rather than instead of it.

PURE LAB stocks professional face oils for dry, sensitive and mature skin.

Who an oil suits:

• Dry skin – an oil in the evening routine, over cream.
• Sensitive skin – a fragrance-free oil to support the barrier.
• Mature skin – an oil gives instant radiance and softness.

Oily and acne-prone skin does better with lighter oils (squalane, jojoba), and does not need them daily.
