5 Face Oils We're Loving Right Now Klaudia Tirico
Face oils have proven to be highly beneficial for all skin types, but the thought of putting an oil on your face can bring unattractive visuals to mind. Think: greasy foreheads and T-zones that lead to breakouts. #Yuck. But surprisingly, oils work wonders on oily, acne-prone complexions, too. Who knew? Ever since I started using a face oil, I never looked back. I rely on one to quench my dehydrated skin and boost the efficacy of my other skincare products. Yes, they do that too.Now that face oils have gained so much popularity in the beauty world, many brands have launched their own version to complement their skincare collections. Here are five new formulas that have gotten my attention. -
Best for Overworked Skin Klaudia Tirico
Caudalie Polyphenol [C15] Overnight Detox Oil, $62 at Nordstrom
Caudalie has launched not one, but two face oils for nighttime. The first, Polyphenol [C15] Overnight Detox Oil, does exactly what the name suggests. It helps skin recover from the nasty effects of stress, pollution, UV radiation and just life in general. This intensive treatment is made with a cocktail of four essential oils and four plant oils to boost cell renewal and get rid of toxin build up. If you know Caudalie at all, you know they love to include grape seed oil in their products. That's because the seeds from the fruit are extremely rich in omega 6 and polyphenols that transform a sluggish complexion while renewing and nourshing sans a greasy residue. And that's just one of the eight beautifying ingredients in this baby. Need I say more?

Red, irritated skin will love the soothing effects of this potent elixir, while the light rose aroma will help you unwind after a long day. It's the perfect refresher after a long flight when your skin just feels so blah. -
