What to do if Your Face Oil Makes Your Skin Greasy?

A good face oil like our Nakin Revitalising Face Oil should never make your skin feel greasy, and instead should be balancing to even oily skin. This is because a high-quality face oil will contain 100% plant ingredients that are kind and nourishing to skin, and are never drying or greasy.

Sometimes a face oil can feel greasy if too much product is used. A face oil will always have a rich consistency and so applying too much can also be too much for your complexion to accept. In this instance we recommend using less of the product. You could try using one pump or even less of the oil, as most pump dispensers can be controlled to an extent if you very slowly push it down to just release a small amount of the oil. Then spread it around the inner fingers of both hands before pressing or massaging all over the face and neck, paying more attention to problem areas such as those with lines and dehydration. If there is any excess, then the decolletage will benefit from the oil too.

If after this a face oil still feels too greasy then consider switching to a different product, or instead using a serum like our Nakin Performance Face Serum. This is also great for all skin types. It has a hydrating lotion consistency and has lots of anti-ageing plant actives and extracts, but is kind to even sensitive skin.

Good face oils are meticulously formulated to absorb quickly into the skin without leaving a greasy residue. Their effectiveness lies in a balance of non-comedogenic ingredients that emulate the skin's natural lipids, allowing them to penetrate deeply and nourish the skin from within. This also helps to regulate sebum production, thus enhancing the skin's own moisturising processes without clogging pores, a hallmark of their non-greasy characteristic.

Face oils have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their numerous benefits for the skin. They are not only great for moisturising, but they also help to combat various skin concerns such as dryness, wrinkles, and even acne.

One of the key advantages of using face oils is their ability to absorb quickly into the skin without leaving a greasy residue. This makes them a suitable option for all skin types, including those with oily or combination skin.

Moreover, good face oils are formulated with non-comedogenic ingredients that mimic the skin's natural lipids. This allows them to penetrate deeply into the skin and provide nourishment from within. By doing so, they help to improve the overall health and appearance of the skin.

In addition to nourishing the skin, face oils also help to regulate sebum production. This means that they can actually benefit those with oily or acne-prone skin by balancing out their natural oil levels and preventing clogged pores.

When choosing a face oil, it's important to look for high-quality ingredients that will provide the most benefits for your skin. Some popular options that we use in our products include jojoba oil, argan oil, and peach oil. These oils are rich in antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and vitamins that help to hydrate and protect the skin. Find out more about our face oil and other natural anti-ageing face products online.
