What is the best way to use facial oils? A skincare ritual
Facial oils are all-round talents – our Firming Facial Oil with Pomegranate is one good example. It nourishes and firms the skin and absorbs quickly without leaving an unpleasant greasy finish.
Thanks to its formulation with eight high-quality organic oils, Firming Facial Oil protects against the negative effects of air pollution. At the same time, it gives the skin a boost of energy for a radiant complexion. Application of the facial oil is simple and versatile. It can be used in the morning as well as in the evening, alone or in combination with Firming Day Cream or Firming Night Cream.
Step 1
To start off your day, after washing your face we recommend applying a firming eye cream to the delicate areas around the eyes, for example our Firming Eye Cream. Put a pea-sized amount on your middle or ring finger, and with the other hand dab small amounts gently around the eyes. Then smooth it into the skin, starting at the inner corner of the eye, then over the eyebrow arch, to the outer corner of the eye. Finally, gently pat around the eye area.
Step 2
As a second step, Firming Face Serum can be applied as a base. This provides the skin with extra moisture and prepares it for subsequent care. Pump a small amount into the palm of your hand. Distribute in both palms by gently pressing the hands together. Use rolling hand movements to lightly pat the serum onto the face. Start at the forehead and nose, continue over the cheeks, then down the side and front of the neck to the décolletage.
Step 3
Put a few drops of the facial oil into the palm of your hand, and with your index and middle fingers dab onto your forehead, nose, chin and cheeks. Distribute the remaining oil in your palms by gently rubbing them together, then use stroking movements to apply and massage into the face. Stroke from the inside to the outside, starting at the centre of the face, then over the neck down to the décolletage. Gently massage the décolletage from left to right, and then from right to left. In the evening, the oil can be applied more generously for intensive night care.
Bonus Tip
For an extra nourishing boost, mix the facial oil with Firming Day or Firming Night Cream, then apply as usual. Put a pea-sized amount of the cream into the palm of your hand and mix with a few drops of facial oil. Then apply with gentle movements, moving outwards from the centre of the face over the neck to the décolletage.
Firming Facial Oil can also be used as a make-up base.
