Recommended face oils

Whilst all carrier oils can be used on the face, as they are rich in fatty acids and other phytonutrients which are excellent for skin health, these are the oils that we tend to recommend the most for using on the face.

It’s worth checking the comedogenic rating on the individual listings for the likeliness of the oil to block pores. Comedogenic rating is a scale of 0 – 5, with 0 being the least likely to block pores, and 5 being the most likely to block pores.

For extra therapeutic benefits, add essential oils to your carrier oil. If you are following the standard dilution guidelines, use half the recommended dilutions when applying to your skin. For example, the usual recommended dilution is normally 6 drops of essential oil per 10ml carrier oil, so if you are using this as a face oil, use 3 drops of essential oil per 10ml of carrier oil.
