Dermatologists recommend lightening your lotion load in the spring, and, in my experience, a face oil always makes for a pleasant replacement and\/or addition.<\/p>\n
\u201cA face oil primarily helps seal in hydration and reinforce your skin\u2019s natural moisture barrier,\u201d Whitney Hovenic, MD, a board-certified dermatologist based in Reno, Nevada, previously told AIlure<\/em>. This is because oils are primarily made of lipids (as opposed to water), so they lock<\/em> in moisture but do not necessarily provide it.<\/p>\n A featherlight option the Allure<\/em> team is loving right now is the Blossom Essentials Hydration Oil<\/strong>. The antioxidant-rich elixir is made with a cocktail of nourishing seed oils (jojoba, rosehip, and marula), so it deeply hydrates the surface of the skin with a delicate touch and feel (like silk!), and a surprisingly fast dry-down.<\/p>\n While you can absolutely use it in place of a moisturizer (depending on your skin type), I actually like to use it as the final step in my nighttime routine. After cleansing and applying my serums and moisturizer, I squeeze a dime-sized amount into the palm of my hand, then gently pat it onto my skin. Like I said, it dries down really fast, so I never have to worry about post-application stickiness or pilling\u2014just an immediate glowy finish.<\/p>\n The Blossom Essentials Hydration Oil is in the March Allure Beauty Box.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dermatologists recommend lightening your lotion load in the spring, and, in my experience, a face oil always makes for a pleasant replacement and\/or addition. \u201cA face oil primarily helps seal in hydration and reinforce your skin\u2019s natural moisture barrier,\u201d Whitney Hovenic, MD, a board-certified dermatologist based in Reno, Nevada, previously told AIlure.
