A hot trend in the beauty industry right now is “Dry Oil.” What is it you ask? Well, according to all the beauty experts, dry oils are body oils that are so fast absorbing, they sink “instantly into skin without leaving any residue.” These oils – which tend to be high in polyunsaturated fatty acids – are not only quick absorbing but also lightweight and don’t leave a heavy or sticky feeling on the skin. Some examples of these wonderful oils are:
- Avocado Oil
- Sesame Oil
- Safflower Oil
- Grapeseed Oil
- Rosehip Oil
- Macadamia Oil
- Walnut Oil
- Borage Oil
- Argan Oil
How do you use these oils?..In order to add maximum moisture to skin all over, beauty experts recommend applying these oils after a warm bath or shower. Smooth onto your clean skin and this dry oil will lock in moisture and leave a flawless finish.
