Which Skin Types and Conditions Is a Face Oil Suitable For?
Facial oils can provide benefits in any skincare routine, regardless of what skin type you have, including dry, oily or combination. While it may not be essential in everyone’s daily skincare regimen, your skin will definitely benefit from extra hydration. Face oils are particularly ideal for soothing dry and visibly irritated complexions. A facial oil for dry skin is designed to replenish lost hydration and restore a supple complexion.
How to Best Integrate a Face Oil into Your Skincare Routine
There are a few ways you can add face oils into your regular skincare routine, either in the morning or at night. Face oils are best used as the last step in your skincare routine, in place of your moisturiser on the face and neck.
Ensure your skin is well-prepped before applying your facial oil. Begin with a gentle cleanser, followed by a facial exfoliant one to two times a week to promote better absorption. You can also apply a hydrating facial mask beforehand to boost moisture levels and create the ideal canvas for your oil. Once your skin is cleansed, exfoliated and treated, finish with your facial oil to lock in hydration and leave your complexion soft, radiant and balanced.
Another versatile application for our facial oils is to mix a drop into Second Skin Crush to create a soothing mineral foundation or MineralWhip mineral makeup in the morning to create a dewy base.

How do I choose the right facial oil for my skin type?
Start by assessing what your skin needs most. If you’re looking for a face oil for dry skin, choose a formula with ingredients like marula, sea buckthorn or prickly pear seed oil to deeply hydrate and repair the skin barrier. For oily or combination skin, go for lighter oils such as squalane or jojoba, which balance sebum without clogging pores.
If you’re unsure which is the best face oil for your skin, feel free to get in touch with us for personalised product advice.
Can I use facial oils in the summer, or are they better for winter?
Facial oils are beneficial all year round. In winter, they help combat dryness and maintain hydration against cold, dry air. In summer, they act as lightweight emollients that support the skin barrier, balance sebum production and protect from environmental stressors like UV exposure and pollution. The key is choosing the right texture and formulation for your skin type. For instance, lighter oils such as squalane are ideal in warmer months, while richer blends can offer added nourishment during cooler seasons.
Can facial oils cause breakouts?
Yes, they can if the oil is too rich for your skin type or used too often. Start slowly and see how your skin reacts before applying more regularly. Regular gentle exfoliation can also help prevent clogged pores and maintain healthy-looking skin.
Is it safe to use facial oils around the eyes?
Yes, but apply with care. The skin around the eyes is thinner and more delicate, so use only a small amount and avoid the lash line or direct contact with the eyes. Gently pat, don’t rub and discontinue use if any irritation develops.
Are Synergie Skin's facial oils suitable for sensitive skin?
Absolutely. Our facial oils for glowing skin contain gentle ingredients that support specific skin concerns. That said, if you have sensitive skin, we recommend performing a patch test to identify any potential reactions to new products. Apply a small amount of face oil to clean skin on your jawline or behind your ear and wait 24 to 48 hours. If no irritation appears, it’s a good indication that the product is suitable for use on your face. If you have any hesitations, it’s always best to speak to a professional who can help guide you to the most suitable formulation for your concern.
