7 Best Oils for a Perfect Complexion

Want gorgeous skin? Two drops of oil might be all you need

Olive oil Best for: Dry skin

We've all heard stories about women in Italy bathing in the stuff -- and I'm sure they have beautiful skin. But using olive oil as a face oil is the scariest of all. I may have become an oil enthusiast, but I've never been able to use this one for anything other than cooking and salad dressing.

However, Baumann loves extra virgin olive oil for patients with very dry skin. (Note the word "very.") She says you can buy it at the grocery store -- just be sure to look for the term "first cold press" on the bottle. (These formulas are higher in antioxidants than other varieties.) Not only is it super moisturizing, olive oil is also rich in compounds like polyphenols, squalene, and fatty acids -- all of which are nourishing and help fight aging.

I'm now obsessed! I use a mixture of oils for cleaning and put rose hip seed oil on 2-3x a day! I wish I had started years ago. It is natural and my skin has never felt/looked better!

Good article. Chamomile and olive oil are really good. I would love to try grapefruit oil.

I have tried most of these (esp. tea tree and grapeseed on my acne-prone skin) and they do work. I'm surprised maracuja oil was left out. I've used this for about two years. It's high in vit C, so many of my blotches and old acne marks have disappeared.

I use Grapeseed oil as a moisturizer after doing a lot of research and I love it. I am usually very oily but lately I've been more combo. The trick Is to use a VERY small amount otherwise it can leave a shine on ur face. In the day I mix it with my Cetaphil moisturizer and it works great!

I make my own face oil with a 1:1 mixture of castor oil ( cleansing oil),grapeseed oil ( light, great for oily/aneic skin) and joboba oil ( light, great for all skin types) with like 10 drops of tea tree oil. I use the oil cleasning method and I started this beacause while I have mild breakouts, my skin is combination and HIGHLY sensitive making most products impossbile to use

by mahogany13 Monday, January 28, 2013 at 02:31PM Report as inappropriate

It's amazing but the right combination of oils do work to clear skin. I've had great results with SCORE Skin Care acne treatment after using a face wash with Salicylic Acid in it. It absorbs quickly and smells really good. It's a simple routine that works. It has grape seed, tea tree, and other oils that work to calm things down after washing and also gets rid of scarring.

by DrPage Monday, January 21, 2013 at 09:46AM Report as inappropriate

I am on my second bottle of Josie Maran Argan oil. I have oily and dry skin. What I like about this oil that it absorbs really quick and does not leave greasy residue , so it does not make oily areas more oily,but it really hydrates dry areas. After using it my skin is really soft. I also use it for my hair and nails.

by Sagynysh Saturday, January 19, 2013 at 10:29PM Report as inappropriate

I just got a sample of the Josie Maran argan oil and am very excited to try it!!! I have very oily skin and acne, and I have heard it can help with that, so I guess we'll see!

by Chris213 Thursday, January 17, 2013 at 06:53AM Report as inappropriate

i'm still skeptical about oils being efficient enough when you have real problems. Never helped me enough, and this "oily look" is questionable too. I suppose, oils could help as some addition to other skin products. PS I wouldn't advertise olive oil by giving Italian women as example, cause even though they are beautiful, their skin often ages really early due to all the sun exposure.

I use a grapeseed oil I found at my local health foods store. It works great, no matter what the weather is like outside. I would recommend using a health foods store version before spending the money for the name brand product.

i love love love anything with chamomile and rose hip! i've tried the argan oil and meh its not the best.

Grapeseed oil works well. It does leave a sheen on your face and makes it feel pretty oily though, so I would only use it at night.

I use DHC face cleansing oil. It takes the makeup off, even waterproof mascara, and leaves your skin smooth. I've never put oils onmy face and kept them on there, I guess I'm going to have to try it! I make my own body scrub with olive oil and sugar. I found a website that has any kind of perfume you can imagine in oil types. Mix a few drops in the scrub and my body is silky soft!

I absolutely love using argan oil for my face, hair, and body. I used to make my own blends with essential oils until I found Purelement Naturals. Their blend defend has such a great balance of oils that have helped my acne, dryness, and wrinkles. I swear by this stuff. Has anyone tried the oil cleansing method here? It's really good too. It unclogs pores.

I too thought putting oil on your skin was scary - I thought it would just clog my pores and add to any oil already on my face so reading this article was an eye opener!

Im pretty sure these are great but they are so expensive.

coconut oil and castor oil are great for anti-aging and definitely OK to use in eye area. I mix them 50/50 in a dropper bottle for easy application. They do take a little longer to absorb so allow for that extra time, I use them at home or at night.

"Josie Maran's beautiful skin as proof that argan oil works" is a laughable statement- Josie Maran's skin has been gorgeous since her teen modeling years. That said, her Argan oil bronzer is a good product- adds shimmer to skin and hair.

Great story! Too many women with oily skin are adamant about using oil products. I worked for Clinique years ago and started using their oil cleanser. Even other workers there thought I was crazy, but I loved it and still use it to this day. When my co-workers saw how great my skin looked, I got some converts. I have never even thought about using oil during the day, even though I learned through Clinique that the oil products can actually reduce oil on your skin. Thank you soooo much for bringing these products to my attention. I love, love, love this website!!!!!

I have used skin oils for several years as I continue to try to prevent aging. My oil collection looks like an isle at a healthfood store. My favs for anti-aging are emu oil, argan oil, coconut oil, rose hips seed oil, and grapeseed oil. They really DO work. My ex-wrinkles thank them all! BTW, you can get excellent quality Emu oil much cheaper. Make sure it is organic farmed, made from the 1st press, while using the cold pressed extraction method only. Check out Vitacost and Swanson, and always read the ingredients. If you are scared of using just oils, then a 2 drops to your face cream. Wonderful benefits will be yours!

I've been using Olive Oil for over a year in the morning and pure coconut oil before bed. Lines have disappeared, my skin looks healthy, fresh and best of all, young! Don't be afraid of using these oils. They quickly absorb and you only need a few drops. Try it for a week and you'll see a remarkable difference!

If you have a nut allergy, DO NOT USE ARGAN OIL! I am allergic to nuts, and used it on my face, not knowing that Argan oil comes from a NUT. I wish that they would put an allergy warning on products containing Argan oil. I had a bad reaction. Just beware ladies.

I'm a fan of Argan oil and yes I did try the Josie Maran Argan oil. It is truly a "miracle" oil because you can use it everywhere. I also prefer 100% organic Argan Oil by Acure. They are a bit more reasonable and cheaper.

Grape seed oil is a MIRACLE Cream for my combination, slightly more on an oily side skin. I had some sunspots and discoloration from breakouts. It worked as magic for me - brighten my skin, made it soft and smooth without leaving it oily. It tightens pores, reduces breakouts and leaves my skin healthy looking, gloving but not shiny. I have tried the most expensive creams like La Mar and La Prairie and everything in between without such results!!! People we are fooled! The secret to the beautiful skin doesn't have to cost a fortune!
