I love how silky and smooth argan life pure argan oil makes my hair! I love that I can also use this on my dry skin, and it is not greasy at all! I am so happy I had the chance to review this product!
Gothamista hello there i have a normal skin not oily not so dry what oil should i use in summer time prior using a sunscreen and also for night after cleansing.
Danielle S lol I know coconut oil is great but can irritate the skin on your face, for your body if you don't have a sensitivity to coconut oil is great!
99% of the videos I see on here talking about this drive me crazy. You can just tell that these people probably google 'best oils for your face' and spend ten minutes reading about it but have no actual understanding of the oils themselves and the real pros and cons to them. Your video deserves a lot more attention. Thanks so much for being this thorough and educational! Most people still have no clue what they're putting on their skin (A VERY IMPORTANT ORGAN) even when they've been told it's healthy for them by some big youtuber lmao.
+Ara Hi! Thank you so much, I really appreciate your comment! The only reason I have so much interest in oils is because all the blends from brands are marketed to be moisturizing, anti-aging etc. only to find out the hard way that my skin was getting drier and I started to break out...and I don't break out. I agree that many of us don't know what we're putting on our skin until we learn the hard way.
I used to spend so much money on Korean skincare products, but I decided to try going natural and switch over to all oils. My skin has never looked better! My favorite is a mix of rosehip and sweet almond oil. I love how minimal my routine is, too.
She is right about Argan oil causing acne or increased rosacea, and she's the only one I've heard mention this. Everyone else seems to extol the virtues of Argan oil ad infinitum, but I tried it and it honestly has caused breakouts on my chin AND not helped my rosacea. It also always felt oily on my skin, but rosehip seed oil feels "dry," and hemp oil also feels dry, so I cleanse my face with hemp oil and use rosehip for anti-aging only at night.
Elizabeth Elliott Argan oil helped healing my acne alot faster plus it actually penetrates my skin. Unlike coconut oil which caused acne and felt like a greasy film. You mustn't use much argan oil. Or you skin doesn't like argan oil, maybw Jojoba or another oil will help you.
I wish I could watch this earlier. Recently I just bought Argan Oil because they claimed that they can controil oil production and I didn’t know it’s very high on oleic oils which makes my face still oily after using it & even caused breakout.
Just another example of how skincare is definitely not one size fits all! Going gluten free greatly reduced my rosacea, but adding argan oil to my usual hemp oil for cleansing was the next most helpful thing I've done. It was thanks to this video that I had my “Aha!” moment regarding jojoba. My face does NOT like it! It’s great on my hair and cuticles, though. Six months without jojoba, four months with argan, and this is the mildest my rosacea has been in over a decade!
I have had oily and acne prone skin for years! I used the mixture of oils recommended for my skin type in this video. And it feels like my skin became normal overnight. Thank You!
You are such a good resource. Anytime I need something new in my routine I always rewatch all your videos. I just love the amount of information you provide. Super grateful! I love telling all my friends about your videos!
On the dry skin section of oils, I have a note about that Argan oil by Josie Maran… in the videos by Beauty Within, they talk about the Ingredients in it & its not just Argan oil but also Corn Esters are in it. I have found that I’m slightly allergic to Corn. When I applied that oil to my face, when I woke up the next day I had a white head on either side of my nose. When I eat anything Corn I tend to break out with one or two pimples. I’m 59.

Not all of them are phototoxic (sweet orange oil is not). Most of them are phototoxic though, especially depending on the distilling method used. Again, I'm so glad someone finally decided to include this. Essential oils can be useful but only when used properly.

I love that you are so educated in skincare and not just reading and regurgitating something you read off of a blog. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you so very much for this enlightening video! I have a teenage daughter who has struggled with acne for a few years now. I have had a really hard time getting her to stay on a skincare regime for more than a few weeks. The information in this video helps me immensely with educating her.
olive oil Cleansing (not using as a leave-on moisturizer) is the number 1 thing i give credit to for healing a massively bad cystic acne breakout i had a few years ago. olive oil cleansing is so swell
I use rosehip oil as my nightly cream. I have oily skin and hormonal acne, and it really helped with uneven textured skin, scaring, uneven skin tone, etc. I know it is more for mature skin (and I'm in my 20's) but it works wonders so I'm keeping it! When my skin gets irritated, I use calendula/marigold oil. It's great for any type of irritation, it worked wonders overnight for a friend who had a really bad sunburn on her face.
Eden Zak, I use it too despite I have slightly oily skin. I do Dilute it by blending it with pomegranate oil with is a less thick version, and grapeseed oil. Sometimes I'll make a honey lemon mask, mix with fresh aloe vera, or add coconut water before. All deoends in skin needs at the moment. LOVE how my skin oils balances, glows, plumps, and hydrates. :-D
say.n0 korres wild rose it's a bit pricey you can get at sephora but let me tell you a little goes a long way I only use one drop when I apply on my face
Thank you. I bought one from amazon last month and tried to mix one drop rosehip oil with 2-3 drops jojoba oil. But I got small irritations on my skin (really small mini pimples all over my cheeks). So I am wondering which one caused it. I will try to use both separately.

Renee, as a wordsmith person I appreciate so much your concise descriptions. Thank you for being so generous in sharing your wealth of skin knowledge. Best wishes.
Yes! Camellia oil is the best! I have very dry skin, and camellia oil and jojoba oil are the only oils that work for me. The rest just sort of sit on top or even irritate my skin.
I also have less wrinkles and good moisture after using face Oil. As get older, skin gets older. It's getting dry. Face oil seems to be a necessity. Thank you for the good information🙏🏻
I have concerns about oils that are sold in clear glass bottles as I know the oils can be negatively effected by light. Where can I purchase cold pressed essential oils only sold in the dark blue or dark amber glass bottles? This is easily the very best video on the topic of oils for aging/mature skin....Gothamista you get to the point, giving us exactly enough information. Would hope to get a response about where to purchase the dark glass bottles....Thanks!!
Probably the best video I’ve seen on this topic. Agree especially on rosehip oil. I had an accident where a pitbull bit me in the face and snag me on the nose. The scar I got is minimal thanks to applying rosehip oil during all the healing process.
Super helpful! I just bought jojoba oil I hope I'm not covered with pimples during the holiday. I wish for a glowy, moisturized, zit free face! U have beautiful skin! I'm sure a lot of that is genetics.... lucky u :)
this is the best description I've heard for face oils. Great job, just subscribed.. wish I watched this video before I burned my face with pure tea tree oil!
I am overjoyed I found your channel. I started using oils a few months ago and I was not very educated about what I was doing. This is great! Thanks so so much for taking the time to inform us. I truly appreciate it.
You're simply amazing. Every time I watch your videos I'm thinking to myself how informative and well explained the topics are ! Thank you for taking time to develop the best beauty TH-cam channel out there ;)
I know that Rosehip seed oil does not make me break out at all. I have combo/sensitive skin and when I feel that my face need some heeling after a break out roseship seed oil helps heal my pimples and fade the scars :) Rosehip Seed oil is the only oil I use on my face because I never break out with it :)
I love rosehip seed oil too. It has really helped to soothe my acne, balance the oil production and promote lightening of post acne hyperpigmentation. I believe it is because of all the natural antioxidants.
Carol Smith Same here! I love this stuff! I especially only use on the days after using makeup! It helps to calm my skin from cleansing the makeup off and helps keep pimples at bay! Also using Witch Hazel dries up pimples the next day!
I just want to thank you. I have acne prone skin and to top it off I work outdoors,my skin went crazy. I started using grape seed oil and most of my blemishes are starting to go away.
i use tea tree oil on my acne spots every night for years and have never got "burned", rashes, red irritated skin or anything. it works amazing to dry up the blemishes and heal them. love it!
tinaa140 I have the exact same skin. right now I'm trying to get my skin in shape. I use a bentonite clay mask mixed with apple cider vinegar. I know you don't want to use a clay mask because your skin is dry but the clay sucks out the acne, the Apple cider vinegar helps pH. I mix my moisturizer with organic cold pressed rosehip oil. 6-7 drops at night. 3-4 in the day. helps with scarring and moisturizes.
I've tried Vitamin C serum to brighten up my face but I ended up 2 shades darker than my natural colour. So I stick to Olay regenerate luminous after using it for 2 weeks I'm so happy with the result my skin feel very soft and brighten.
Thanks for the reply! If you get a chance, I'd really really appreciate a video on eye-products that can help reduce fine lines and dark circles, I'm sure I speak for many women out there. I'd love to hear your take on it since you give the most important and useful information without fluff. Keep up the great work, it's very appreciated :-)
Love your videos. I love Argan oil, I have very sensitive skin and rosacea, and this oil is the only “moisturiser” that my skin likes without any breakout.
This was a fantastic explanation! I have a combination of skin because it is oily and acne prone, but seems to be dry after using commercial acne products for years. For two weeks I've taken out all products I previously used (hidden them for now, including cetaphil), and use a homemade olive oil based cold cream (it does have lavender, but doesn't seem to irritate at all). Despite olive being better for dry rather than oily skin, my skin has healed most of the acne I had and some redness in my lower jawline from the powerful acne topical medication I used ten years ago is going down. I'm intrigued by rosehip, jojoba, grapeseed and avocado! Tea tree is fabulous as a spot treatment.
Thank for this very informative video. I love how you don't blabber and say useless stuff. Also, you have such a lovely face! I swear, you could pass as someone in their late teens or early twenties. Annnnd you look like you could be IU's (Lee Ji Eun) older sister/mom.
I wet my palms a bit with plain water after applying facial oil. Then I go back over my face & neck. The water helps to spread the facial oil and pretty much gets rid of the oily, shiny phase of using facial oil.
I've been using tea tree oil directly on my skin for like 3 weeks now and honestly, it cured my inflamed skin and I haven't had any more acne breakouts. And I have a very sensitive skin. Just saying.
I absolutely love your videos. They've answered do many of my skincare questions. I keep re-watching for reference. Thank you for all of your hard work!
So far I've tried marula, jojoba, squalene, argan, coconut oil, and olive oil. I like pretty much all of em but I'm definitely trying something new after I'm done w/ my bottle. Thank u for this informative video.
I'm on my 2nd bottle of rosehip oil, I partner it with my thayers witch hazel,st.ives oatmeal mask since January i used this three products and it really help my acne journey.
Omg! Just found it randomly and I'm so happy I did!!So helpful!!You are super informative, lovely and beautiful!!Thank you!I immediately subscribed and turned on Notifications!! Cannot wait to see more of your videos!!xxx
Hi Me, Myself and I, I just stumbled across the video and read some of the comments and saw your post. I have the same skin type, mostly dry and sensitive, but I am lucky because I do not suffer from breakout/acne. But try this combination...tea tree oil soap or facial wash (Trader's Joe have a great selection of tea tree product 100%!) and then use an oil that suits you skin type. I use rosehip seed AND NOTHING ELSE!!!! Sometimes we tend to exacerbate a problem by trying to do too much and trying too many products. I wash with a tea tree soap or goats milk soap or Pears soap (all VERY mild and does not dry out the skin), morning at night using warm water and at nights I use the rosehip seed oil and"pat it into skin" just as Giothamista suggested and that is it!!! In the morning if my skim feels dry, I my add a few drops or argan oil mixed with a drop of the rosehip seed oil onthe palm of my hand and gently rub it on my face before applying my foundation. Oh, and I also use a face rag to wash my face at night. Once a week I exfoliate with a St. Ives scrub (the one with Green Tea leaves). Nothing crazy, I think any good exfoliate will work. Just be EXTREMELY gentle. I haven't had a r breakout in MANY YEARS. My only form of breakout comes as the occasional 'period pimple' (that Diva!), and I leave them alone (I know, easier said than done, or dab a little tea tree oil on the pimple (NOT THE ENTIRE FACE!!!). VERY IMPORTANT" Make sure to drink PLENTY OF WATER. I know, I know, I know, but you need to cleanse the inside as well as the outside. Yes, genetic help but the environment is so harsh that it's still a constant battle even for those of us with decent skin to begin with. I have had breakouts too....no one is exempt. Try this SIMPLE inexpensive formula for a month and see. Trust me!
Another beautiful video! I am perpetually amazed by the amount of information you are able to pack into each of your videos; you're easily one of my favorite youtubers for that very reason! I cannot get to this channel fast enough whenever I see there is a new upload! Keep up the amazing work!
what about tamanu oil? I hear of its healing benefits and had worked tremendously for my friend who was having so many breakouts on her face which got out of control.
Thanks for the video! Really informative, and I love your voice! Ummm what about some other facial oils that have been pretty hyped lately such as black cumin seed oil, tamanu oil and kukui oil? I would love to know what you think about them as well :)
This was fantastic. Couldn't hit subscribe fast enough. I'm constantly filtering through absurd 'new trend' product claims and the disappointment of finding little to no 'medical' info on skincare products that isn't heavily influenced by manufacturer propaganda. This was well researched and completely explained the various oils to me. I'll definitely quote from and recommend this vid.
THANK YOU! I was wondering why Olive and Coconut oil was breaking out my dry skin even tho others swore by it. Thanks goodness I have Jojoba and sunflower oil to try now 😁😁
I hate silicones/Dimethicones which is now in every moisturizer. It zaps the natural oil from my middle aged skin and causes extreme dryness and more wrinkles. Now I am using that famous yellow lotion (has mineral oil which is MUCH better than silicones) and seal it off with Kiehls midnight & daily face oils. Finally my skin feels and look good.
So helpful! I have oily acne prone skin and didn't know better. So I started using Argan Oil! So switching over tart Maracuja oil! Same price and the Josie Maren one and better for my skin. Thank you!
If you're still looking for oil, you should go with grapeseed oil and evening primrose oil. They're high in linoleic acid, which is what oily skin is lacking.
I have the same problem could jojoba oil work as well? I cant stand how my skin looks , its full of big pores, acne and red as an apple. Without foundation my face looks like it got a really bad sunburn What should I do?😭
I am loving herbivore botanical facial oils, they have a Lapis oil that is great for acne prone skin. I also use their phoenix oil and orchid oil. Those don't break me out either. Their oils are natural and cold pressed.
This was the most informative video I have ever watched on oils. Very well said & easy to keep up with. I'm definitely going to subscribe & binge watch all your vids now lol (Also you are absolutely gorgeous 💕)
I am binge watching your videos and I must say your videos are very informative. I am into korean skincare recently and your videos really helps with what I should be trying next. ❤️Much love from Philippines.
This is been really helpful, lately I have been having reallllyy dry skin, it really hurts and this never happened to me before, almost tried everything, hopefully this works out for me. Can’t wait to try it out!!
j vall I learned in beauty school that "anti-aging" products should start to be used in our 20s. If you think about it totally makes sense. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure! So your skin should be amazing for so long!
spartan rifle well too bad i bought it online and the seller said it was pure (i was so stupid, buying without researching first) then i tested it by putting it in refrigerator for a day it didn’t solidify which means they added something in it
Hi renae just started following you . Can I just say u are so memorising to watch . Loving ur tips an recommendations . You are so calming to watch such a soft voice . So glad I came across you on a Facebook Page
Amazing video, immediately subscribed! I have oily skin but not acne prone and I've been using Argan oil but I don't really notice a difference and it feels like it just sits on my face. I was thinking of switching to Jojoba oil. But I have a question about apply face oils, I've read that for people with oily skin, it may be better to apply a face oil after your moisturizer to lock it in. What's your opinion on that?
i am not an expert but argan oil is too greasy for you if you have oily skin..jojoba is better but there are also lighter oils.. and please do not use oil after moistruiser..it is just too much for skin.. i think that in the video oily skin is considered under oily/acne prone section.. i have very sensitive but oily and acne prone skin..and i have been using grapeseed and chesnut oil mixed together..but i would like it to be at least one or two months of using it to give my opinion..so far it is great.. i think that you should do research..just type the name of the oil in google and see for what it can be used.. think of your own skin while reading it and then try to estimate..everyone is different so you have to find something just for you.. english is not my fist language so sorry for mistakes..
Thanks for actually being educational when it comes to beauty...not like the dozens of beauty gurus who are just all about hype and flourecent trends!!!
I have oily acne prone skin with sensitivity. While I have found coconut oil and olive oil to be irritating for my face, argan oil has been WONDERFUL. I use it at night and it never ends up on my pillow because my skin absorbs it well and in the morning I don't look greasy at all! I am curious to try others though so thanks for the video :)
I would not recommend it. Argan oil is quite heavy and a biiit comedogenic. Hav you tried jojoba oil? I have oily/sensitive skin and jojoba oil has helped me the most.
That's true. But still, argan oil would not be a good option; it feels quite heavier than jojoba oil, and it's high in oleic acids, whereas jojoba oil is high in linoleic acids. I can't remember exactly why I brought this up haha but in this very video, Renee explains it.
Lana Banana Hi ;) I just saw your comment. Rosehip oil is basically for age spots and scars; I just use it for my evening skincare routine. I would dare to say that regardless of your skin type, rosehip oil is good but just for what I told you; plus, it's a 2 on the comedogenic scale so be careful, especially if you have oily skin. I just think it's a complement to my other oils; it helps with regeneration, but it doesn't feel hydrating or moisturizing, in my opinion.
Your voice is so soothing! What a nice change from all the overly excited, fake sounding women that speak on this topic. I always appreciate when someone speaks in their natural voice, it's easier to listen to and you can actually follow the information. kudos ✌
Your video is very informative and educational. So few youtubers can actually deliver knowledge about skincare in an indepth manner. And you are one of them.
Is it best to get cold pressed grapeseed oil? Or any? I'm having to change absolutely everything since I found I'm allergic to coconut and castor oil Coconut seems to be in pretty much everything, its killing me not being able to shampoo my hair it's so disgusting as you can imagine x
I already bought my oil then i watch this. I use maracuja and almond oil for my normal to dry skin. I feel the different, my skin feels good. Next time i want to buy ricebran and tamanu oil. Is it good for dry skin ?
I know this video is a bit older but I wanted to let you know how grateful I am! This is so informative!!! You are so good at explaining all of the information we need! Thank you so much! You definitely have a new, life-long subscriber !!!

On the dry skin section of oils, I have a note about that Argan oil by Josie Maran… in the videos by Beauty Within, they talk about the Ingredients in it & its not just Argan oil but also Corn Esters are in it. I have found that I’m slightly allergic to Corn. When I applied that oil to my face, when I woke up the next day I had a white head on either side of my nose. When I eat anything Corn I tend to break out with one or two pimples. I’m 59.
good video!
People with oily skin must remember that they should wash their face only twice a day. frequent face wash can lead to drying of skin which will send the signal to create more oil. This can be counter productive.
Also, a gel based moisturiser is a must to maintain skin barrier.

I love that you are so educated in skincare and not just reading and regurgitating something you read off of a blog. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I just cant stop staring at how glowing and nice ur skin looks
Her voice and her face are gorgeous
Thank you so very much for this enlightening video! I have a teenage daughter who has struggled with acne for a few years now. I have had a really hard time getting her to stay on a skincare regime for more than a few weeks. The information in this video helps me immensely with educating her.
I would trust anything this woman says, based on how her skin looks. Holy cow her skin is gorgeous.
olive oil Cleansing (not using as a leave-on moisturizer) is the number 1 thing i give credit to for healing a massively bad cystic acne breakout i had a few years ago. olive oil cleansing is so swell
As moisturizer it feels heavy. Going to try it as cleanser now. Thank you
I use rosehip oil as my nightly cream. I have oily skin and hormonal acne, and it really helped with uneven textured skin, scaring, uneven skin tone, etc. I know it is more for mature skin (and I'm in my 20's) but it works wonders so I'm keeping it! When my skin gets irritated, I use calendula/marigold oil. It's great for any type of irritation, it worked wonders overnight for a friend who had a really bad sunburn on her face.
Eden Zak, I use it too despite I have slightly oily skin. I do Dilute it by blending it with pomegranate oil with is a less thick version, and grapeseed oil. Sometimes I'll make a honey lemon mask, mix with fresh aloe vera, or add coconut water before. All deoends in skin needs at the moment. LOVE how my skin oils balances, glows, plumps, and hydrates. :-D
I also want to start using rosehip oil. Which brand do you use?
Rosalia, it's a French brand but I live in Europe. I don't know if it's available in other parts of the world.
say.n0 korres wild rose it's a bit pricey you can get at sephora but let me tell you a little goes a long way I only use one drop when I apply on my face
Thank you. I bought one from amazon last month and tried to mix one drop rosehip oil with 2-3 drops jojoba oil. But I got small irritations on my skin (really small mini pimples all over my cheeks). So I am wondering which one caused it. I will try to use both separately.
I keep rewatching this video for references, it's so useful! Thank you so much for making this video!
Thank you, I'm so happy you're finding it useful!

bless you Renee, out here saving lives and faces
Renee, as a wordsmith person I appreciate so much your concise descriptions. Thank you for being so generous in sharing your wealth of skin knowledge. Best wishes.
Really enjoyed how you explained about the oils. Your presence is very calming
Finally a youtuber who knows her stuff! You're now officially my beauty guru
Yes! Camellia oil is the best! I have very dry skin, and camellia oil and jojoba oil are the only oils that work for me. The rest just sort of sit on top or even irritate my skin.
I also have less wrinkles and good moisture after using face Oil.
As get older, skin gets older.
It's getting dry.
Face oil seems to be a necessity.
Thank you for the good information🙏🏻
미소제인 which facial oil do you use
I have been using BioSwiss Jojoba Oil in Switzerland for 10 years😊💕
Thank you😍
I have concerns about oils that are sold in clear glass bottles as I know the oils can be negatively effected by light. Where can I purchase cold pressed essential oils only sold in the dark blue or dark amber glass bottles? This is easily the very best video on the topic of oils for aging/mature skin....Gothamista you get to the point, giving us exactly enough information. Would hope to get a response about where to purchase the dark glass bottles....Thanks!!
Probably the best video I’ve seen on this topic. Agree especially on rosehip oil. I had an accident where a pitbull bit me in the face and snag me on the nose. The scar I got is minimal thanks to applying rosehip oil during all the healing process.
Your skin is so flawless, looking at your face is a hobby ❤️😝
Super helpful! I just bought jojoba oil I hope I'm not covered with pimples during the holiday. I wish for a glowy, moisturized, zit free face! U have beautiful skin! I'm sure a lot of that is genetics.... lucky u :)
Francescadbg Jojoba oil is low on the comedogenic scale so it won't clog your pores or cause breakouts, you're good.
how did the jojoba oil work for your skin??
this is the best description I've heard for face oils. Great job, just subscribed.. wish I watched this video before I burned my face with pure tea tree oil!
m to ;(
mix tea tree oil n castor oil better than best i try it work !!!
I am overjoyed I found your channel. I started using oils a few months ago and I was not very educated about what I was doing. This is great! Thanks so so much for taking the time to inform us. I truly appreciate it.
Finally! Someone who can actually explain what all these ingredients actually do! How did I just now find you? Your awesome 😁
You're simply amazing. Every time I watch your videos I'm thinking to myself how informative and well explained the topics are ! Thank you for taking time to develop the best beauty TH-cam channel out there ;)
I agree, she is wonderful!
+Dobby de Beers Oh my! Your comment has made me smile so hard, my chubby cheeks hurt! Thank you so much for being so sweet and kind!
I know that Rosehip seed oil does not make me break out at all. I have combo/sensitive skin and when I feel that my face need some heeling after a break out roseship seed oil helps heal my pimples and fade the scars :) Rosehip Seed oil is the only oil I use on my face because I never break out with it :)
+GueyshArt Rosehip oil is really one my favorites too!!
Yay! It's the best! It heals my acne and scars so fast :) I also use it when I have an irritated scalp and it helps to calm it.
I love rosehip seed oil too. It has really helped to soothe my acne, balance the oil production and promote lightening of post acne hyperpigmentation. I believe it is because of all the natural antioxidants.
Carol Smith Same here! I love this stuff! I especially only use on the days after using makeup! It helps to calm my skin from cleansing the makeup off and helps keep pimples at bay! Also using Witch Hazel dries up pimples the next day!
I just want to thank you. I have acne prone skin and to top it off I work outdoors,my skin went crazy. I started using grape seed oil and most of my blemishes are starting to go away.
That's amazing!
where do you buy your grape seed oil?
I mixed sunflower and tea tree oil, what a treat!
i use tea tree oil on my acne spots every night for years and have never got "burned", rashes, red irritated skin or anything. it works amazing to dry up the blemishes and heal them. love it!
I have acne, sensitive skin, and dry skin 😭
tinaa140 I have the exact same skin. right now I'm trying to get my skin in shape. I use a bentonite clay mask mixed with apple cider vinegar. I know you don't want to use a clay mask because your skin is dry but the clay sucks out the acne, the Apple cider vinegar helps pH. I mix my moisturizer with organic cold pressed rosehip oil. 6-7 drops at night. 3-4 in the day. helps with scarring and moisturizes.
tinaa140 Yes, dry skin can get acne too. You need to moisturize, very important step for anyone with dry skin.
tinaa140 I know your pain
Me too ahhh
Me too!!!
What do you think about Vitamin C serums?
I would love to hear her thoughts on VIT C serums
Me too!
She uses one and says it's great for people who want brighter skin or have acne scars.
love the diy vitamin c serum!
I've tried Vitamin C serum to brighten up my face but I ended up 2 shades darker than my natural colour. So I stick to Olay regenerate luminous after using it for 2 weeks I'm so happy with the result my skin feel very soft and brighten.
Best video on face oils ever, arguably the best video on face oils on youtube! Thank you so much!
Wow, thank you!
Thanks for the reply! If you get a chance, I'd really really appreciate a video on eye-products that can help reduce fine lines and dark circles, I'm sure I speak for many women out there. I'd love to hear your take on it since you give the most important and useful information without fluff. Keep up the great work, it's very appreciated :-)
You're comments are making me beam! I do have a video on eye creams!
I love this woman! She's well-researched, eloquent and straight to the point!
Love your videos. I love Argan oil, I have very sensitive skin and rosacea, and this oil is the only “moisturiser” that my skin likes without any breakout.
This was a fantastic explanation! I have a combination of skin because it is oily and acne prone, but seems to be dry after using commercial acne products for years. For two weeks I've taken out all products I previously used (hidden them for now, including cetaphil), and use a homemade olive oil based cold cream (it does have lavender, but doesn't seem to irritate at all). Despite olive being better for dry rather than oily skin, my skin has healed most of the acne I had and some redness in my lower jawline from the powerful acne topical medication I used ten years ago is going down.
I'm intrigued by rosehip, jojoba, grapeseed and avocado! Tea tree is fabulous as a spot treatment.
Thank you!! I have similar skin to you, so this is really cool
I have similar skin! Olive oil is good but stopped it for a while as I want to try a lighter version. And yes, tea tree is amazing for spot treatment
Thank for this very informative video. I love how you don't blabber and say useless stuff. Also, you have such a lovely face! I swear, you could pass as someone in their late teens or early twenties. Annnnd you look like you could be IU's (Lee Ji Eun) older sister/mom.
I'm so glad you made this because I have oily skin and I had a hard time understanding which oils are good for my face. Btw you're so pretty!
Jojoba oil and nigella oil are really good for oily skin, the nigella is even better if you have acne, it cleared my skin like no other product
Nigella oil as in black seed oil?
I wet my palms a bit with plain water after applying facial oil. Then I go back over my face & neck. The water helps to spread the facial oil and pretty much gets rid of the oily, shiny phase of using facial oil.
I forget jojoba oil which mimics the skins natrual oil so it’s is good
I've been using tea tree oil directly on my skin for like 3 weeks now and honestly, it cured my inflamed skin and I haven't had any more acne breakouts. And I have a very sensitive skin. Just saying.
Which tea tree oil you're using?
@@lubabamushsaratkhanom1298 Thursday plantation.
I absolutely love your videos. They've answered do many of my skincare questions. I keep re-watching for reference. Thank you for all of your hard work!
So far I've tried marula, jojoba, squalene, argan, coconut oil, and olive oil. I like pretty much all of em but I'm definitely trying something new after I'm done w/ my bottle. Thank u for this informative video.
This video was very helpful. I used coconut oil on my face and it did cause a lot of breakouts. I will look for the oils for wrinkles.
I'm on my 2nd bottle of rosehip oil, I partner it with my thayers witch hazel,st.ives oatmeal mask since January i used this three products and it really help my acne journey.
How do you use this step by step
Omg! Just found it randomly and I'm so happy I did!!So helpful!!You are super informative, lovely and beautiful!!Thank you!I immediately subscribed and turned on Notifications!! Cannot wait to see more of your videos!!xxx
Oh my! Thank you so much 😊!!
Tom Idelson t g
You're putting so much effort in your videos! Really grateful to have you ❤ I use tea tree oil as a spot treatment for pimples love it :))
+Kübra Dogan I'm really grateful for your lovely comments!
+Gothamista they're wholehearted and honest so ithey are a true pleasure ❤😊
Hi Me, Myself and I,
I just stumbled across the video and read some of the comments and saw your post. I have the same skin type, mostly dry and sensitive, but I am lucky because I do not suffer from breakout/acne.
But try this combination...tea tree oil soap or facial wash (Trader's Joe have a great selection of tea tree product 100%!) and then use an oil that suits you skin type. I use rosehip seed AND NOTHING ELSE!!!! Sometimes we tend to exacerbate a problem by trying to do too much and trying too many products. I wash with a tea tree soap or goats milk soap or Pears soap (all VERY mild and does not dry out the skin), morning at night using warm water and at nights I use the rosehip seed oil and"pat it into skin" just as Giothamista suggested and that is it!!! In the morning if my skim feels dry, I my add a few drops or argan oil mixed with a drop of the rosehip seed oil onthe palm of my hand and gently rub it on my face before applying my foundation. Oh, and I also use a face rag to wash my face at night. Once a week I exfoliate with a St. Ives scrub (the one with Green Tea leaves). Nothing crazy, I think any good exfoliate will work. Just be EXTREMELY gentle. I haven't had a r breakout in MANY YEARS. My only form of breakout comes as the occasional 'period pimple' (that Diva!), and I leave them alone (I know, easier said than done, or dab a little tea tree oil on the pimple (NOT THE ENTIRE FACE!!!).
VERY IMPORTANT" Make sure to drink PLENTY OF WATER. I know, I know, I know, but you need to cleanse the inside as well as the outside. Yes, genetic help but the environment is so harsh that it's still a constant battle even for those of us with decent skin to begin with. I have had breakouts too....no one is exempt.
Try this SIMPLE inexpensive formula for a month and see. Trust me!
I'm currently using grapeseed oil and I have an oily skin, no breakout and my face is healing. Thank you.
Is that the only oil you use?
Another beautiful video! I am perpetually amazed by the amount of information you are able to pack into each of your videos; you're easily one of my favorite youtubers for that very reason! I cannot get to this channel fast enough whenever I see there is a new upload! Keep up the amazing work!
Agree 👌🏻
+C's Beauty Blog Thank you so much CJ! That means a lot to me, you are so sweet :)
+foggytime Zzz
what about tamanu oil? I hear of its healing benefits and had worked tremendously for my friend who was having so many breakouts on her face which got out of control.
I found this video on Canny cleanser chart - there are plenty more great videos there that will help out
Thanks for the video! Really informative, and I love your voice! Ummm what about some other facial oils that have been pretty hyped lately such as black cumin seed oil, tamanu oil and kukui oil? I would love to know what you think about them as well :)
This video was very informative. As a soap maker I'm always questioning the type of oils I need to use. Thank you for sharing
This was fantastic. Couldn't hit subscribe fast enough. I'm constantly filtering through absurd 'new trend' product claims and the disappointment of finding little to no 'medical' info on skincare products that isn't heavily influenced by manufacturer propaganda. This was well researched and completely explained the various oils to me. I'll definitely quote from and recommend this vid.
this is definitely one of the best (if not the best) videos about facial oils ever. so informative, it's awesome
THANK YOU! I was wondering why Olive and Coconut oil was breaking out my dry skin even tho others swore by it. Thanks goodness I have Jojoba and sunflower oil to try now 😁😁
Ugh me too
Renee, I love your work, the dedication and knowledge you put into these videos provide such a high quality content, thank you so much 😊.
Thank you, I really appreciate this so much!
Are you even a doctor? Dermatologist?
HOW TO BE YOU, Ms. Renee??? You are a COMPLETE PACKAGE! Beauty and brain! Life can be so unfair!😉
My skin is both dry and acne prone...
Maybe just dehydrated? Does your skin feel tight?
Gia The Sweet Potato sameee
I have it as well I tested my skin in a store with a scanner im both dry and dehydrated but almost all products break me out
Rose hip oil babe
Same
I hate silicones/Dimethicones which is now in every moisturizer. It zaps the natural oil from my middle aged skin and causes extreme dryness and more wrinkles. Now I am using that famous yellow lotion (has mineral oil which is MUCH better than silicones) and seal it off with Kiehls midnight & daily face oils. Finally my skin feels and look good.
So helpful! I have oily acne prone skin and didn't know better. So I started using Argan Oil! So switching over tart Maracuja oil! Same price and the Josie Maren one and better for my skin. Thank you!
if you could recommend only one or two oils for combo acne prone very red skin what would you choose?
If you're still looking for oil, you should go with grapeseed oil and evening primrose oil. They're high in linoleic acid, which is what oily skin is lacking.
I have the same problem
could jojoba oil work as well?
I cant stand how my skin looks , its full of big pores, acne and red as an apple. Without foundation my face looks like it got a really bad sunburn
What should I do?😭
I am loving herbivore botanical facial oils, they have a Lapis oil that is great for acne prone skin. I also use their phoenix oil and orchid oil. Those don't break me out either. Their oils are natural and cold pressed.
Jasminee Morales Jojoba and rosehip
but what if oily but clear skin? no acne?? grape seed or almond oil preferred??
This was the most informative video I have ever watched on oils. Very well said & easy to keep up with. I'm definitely going to subscribe & binge watch all your vids now lol
(Also you are absolutely gorgeous 💕)
Oh my, thank you so much!
I am binge watching your videos and I must say your videos are very informative. I am into korean skincare recently and your videos really helps with what I should be trying next.
❤️Much love from Philippines.
I'm so happy to hear that!
My go to is Argan Oil! I love Josie Maran. Doesn't clog me up and gives me a glow.
This is been really helpful, lately I have been having reallllyy dry skin, it really hurts and this never happened to me before, almost tried everything, hopefully this works out for me. Can’t wait to try it out!!
I'm 19 and I use jojoba and rosehip oil lol I didn't even know they were used for antiaging!
j vall I learned in beauty school that "anti-aging" products should start to be used in our 20s. If you think about it totally makes sense. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure! So your skin should be amazing for so long!
Courtney McLaughlin i use argan oil everyday and i didn’t know it was for anti aging, but i’m 15. is it fine?
nvm my argan oil is fake :( imma dump it
@@haventbrushedmyteethbut5671 if it says 100% argan oil in the Front and if it's from the food section then it's real.
spartan rifle well too bad i bought it online and the seller said it was pure (i was so stupid, buying without researching first) then i tested it by putting it in refrigerator for a day it didn’t solidify which means they added something in it
Sweet almond oil moisturizer for me! 😃❤️
Thank you! You're very well spoken, intelligent and beautiful!
You are so sweet, thank you!!!
I agree with previous commentor-this is probably one of the most helpful skincare videos i have watched! Great, helpful info. Thanks!!!
Hi renae just started following you . Can I just say u are so memorising to watch . Loving ur tips an recommendations . You are so calming to watch such a soft voice . So glad I came across you on a Facebook Page
Hi can i ask what oil should I use if I have combination and acne skin? and could you recommend any oil that help to erase acne scar? thanks!
rosehip oil might be good for you! :)
Marula oil will help with acne prone skin due to its antioxidants :)
Tea tree oil! :)
Boo Bunny tea tree & grape seed r good for scars 💕
Amazing video, immediately subscribed!
I have oily skin but not acne prone and I've been using Argan oil but I don't really notice a difference and it feels like it just sits on my face. I was thinking of switching to Jojoba oil. But I have a question about apply face oils, I've read that for people with oily skin, it may be better to apply a face oil after your moisturizer to lock it in. What's your opinion on that?
i am not an expert but argan oil is too greasy for you if you have oily skin..jojoba is better but there are also lighter oils.. and please do not use oil after moistruiser..it is just too much for skin.. i think that in the video oily skin is considered under oily/acne prone section.. i have very sensitive but oily and acne prone skin..and i have been using grapeseed and chesnut oil mixed together..but i would like it to be at least one or two months of using it to give my opinion..so far it is great.. i think that you should do research..just type the name of the oil in google and see for what it can be used.. think of your own skin while reading it and then try to estimate..everyone is different so you have to find something just for you..
english is not my fist language so sorry for mistakes..
i have greasy skin and I use argan,but at night and u wake up with beautiful skin but I'm in early 30#
Put your oils on a wet skin before moisturizer - that's how it really gets into skin💁🏻
wat abt combination skin w/ acne, large pores,black heads n mature skin?????
Mana Gurung You should invest in a mud mask or bentonite clay/ activated charcoal masks. And stick to lighter oils.
Thanks for actually being educational when it comes to beauty...not like the dozens of beauty gurus who are just all about hype and flourecent trends!!!
I have oily acne prone skin with sensitivity. While I have found coconut oil and olive oil to be irritating for my face, argan oil has been WONDERFUL. I use it at night and it never ends up on my pillow because my skin absorbs it well and in the morning I don't look greasy at all! I am curious to try others though so thanks for the video :)
I just found your channel, your video is very informative. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Loved it!
Thank you so much!
what about argan oil for oily skin?
I would not recommend it. Argan oil is quite heavy and a biiit comedogenic. Hav you tried jojoba oil? I have oily/sensitive skin and jojoba oil has helped me the most.
Mark Cruz argan oil is actually a 0 on the comodegenic scale
That's true. But still, argan oil would not be a good option; it feels quite heavier than jojoba oil, and it's high in oleic acids, whereas jojoba oil is high in linoleic acids. I can't remember exactly why I brought this up haha but in this very video, Renee explains it.
Mark Cruz hi. That's true. What about rosehip oil for combination skin? It will clog my pores? It is good at linoleic acid?
Lana Banana Hi ;) I just saw your comment. Rosehip oil is basically for age spots and scars; I just use it for my evening skincare routine. I would dare to say that regardless of your skin type, rosehip oil is good but just for what I told you; plus, it's a 2 on the comedogenic scale so be careful, especially if you have oily skin. I just think it's a complement to my other oils; it helps with regeneration, but it doesn't feel hydrating or moisturizing, in my opinion.
Your voice is so soothing! What a nice change from all the overly excited, fake sounding women that speak on this topic. I always appreciate when someone speaks in their natural voice, it's easier to listen to and you can actually follow the information. kudos ✌
Your video is very informative and educational. So few youtubers can actually deliver knowledge about skincare in an indepth manner. And you are one of them.
Is it best to get cold pressed grapeseed oil? Or any? I'm having to change absolutely everything since I found I'm allergic to coconut and castor oil
Coconut seems to be in pretty much everything, its killing me not being able to shampoo my hair it's so disgusting as you can imagine x
which oil would you recommend for combination skin?
Marula, definitely. It's suitable for all skin types :)
What is best for dry skin?
I already bought my oil then i watch this.
I use maracuja and almond oil for my normal to dry skin.
I feel the different, my skin feels good. Next time i want to buy ricebran and tamanu oil. Is it good for dry skin ?
I found that blue tansy oil is amazing for retexturing and redness, it is the only oil that has done anything for me.
I know this video is a bit older but I wanted to let you know how grateful I am! This is so informative!!! You are so good at explaining all of the information we need! Thank you so much! You definitely have a new, life-long subscriber !!!
