Embracing Oils for your Face Because Why Not??
A decade ago, the thought of using oil to moisturize your face was unthinkable. Why would we? We used astringent to remove oil from our face. We even washed our faces in the middle of the day.
I first heard that using oils for the face was a good idea from Cindy Go, who used to do PR for MAC Cosmetics. She told me that Gregory Arlt, Director of Makeup Artistry for MAC Cosmetics, had taught her to mix a drop or two of the brand's Care Blends Essential Oils to her foundation for a lit-from-within glow.
Anyway, those oils are now called Prep + Prime Essential Oils.
Aside from mixing facial oil with your foundation and/or concealer, you can use it at night after cleansing, toning and applying a serum.
