If you want to source simple, effective hydration, look no further than a singular oil. The right oil will penetrate quickly and get to the business of moisturizing and hydrating your skin without clogging your pores. Here are some of the most effective and accessible non-comedogenic oils for your face:
NEEM OIL is very high in antioxidants. It has been used for centuries in both Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine. It is also antibacterial and antifunga, which makes suitable for healing wounds and treating acne. The only downside is the smell: Neem oil is very pungent so use sparingly!
GRAPESEED OIL isn’t as strong in the smell department, and it’s really effective for deep hydration and antioxidant care. Grapeseed oil is very high in Vitamin E, making it ideal for smoothing away blemishes and healing skin imperfections. The light texture makes it ideal for skin types that can’t tolerate heavy skincare formulations.
HEMPSEED OIL is a great choice for dry skin. It can heal skin complaints like actopic dermatitis, rough dry patches and general irritation. It’s also full of Vitamin C, which can help brighten and smooth all skin complexions.
SWEET ALMOND OIL is both light and pleasant to smell and use. It has a high level of fatty acids and absorbs well. It’s an effective moisturizer for all skin types, and is especially effective against psoriasis and some dermatitis.
