Best face oils for nourishing all skin types - from Garnier to Botanics

No matter what your skin type, most skincare experts will say it can probably be made even better by adding an oil into your routine.

Though you may think that by adding an oil onto already oily skin, you'll just be making the matter worse, but oils can balance out sebum production without blocking pores.

They can also nourish and soften dry skin and help give an anti-ageing boost to more mature types.

It's all about picking the right one, which our Notebook beauty team are helping you do.

They've reviewed the five newest launches to find out which ones noticeably made the condition of their skin look and feel better.

Here's what they thought...

True Skincare Organic Rehydrating Rosehip Oil, £13.50

Tester Rose says: ‘The oil was tacky at first, but soaked in very quickly.

'After just a few days of both morning and evening use, I saw a noticeable glow to my skin and all my dry patches were gone.

'This product smells lovely too. I definitely recommend.’

Puressentiel Beautiful Skin Organic Essential Elixir, £38

Beauty director Lynne says: I was inspired to try this after meeting the brand founder, a woman with THE most glowy skin.

'If this is her secret, I’m not surprised, as it’s become one of my favourite oils ever.

'It made my skin wonderfully smooth, supple and refreshed, and I used every last drop of it.’

A’kin Weightless Rosehip Oil, £24.97

Executive ed Flavia says: ‘It looked like it would be really heavy, but it actually went on easily and was very light on the skin.

'The smell was nice, the texture luxurious, and it made my skin feel really moisturised without being greasy.’

Garnier Organic Lavandin Glow Facial Oil, £11.68

Lynne says: ‘This whole range is amazing quality, full-stop, never mind for a high street brand – it’s certified organic, vegan and eco-friendly.

'The oil was a pleasure to use, from its gorgeous scent to how it made my skin look and feel radiant and soft.’

Botanics 100% Organic Nourishing Face Oil, £11.49

Deputy features ed Rosie says: ‘This smells like Turkish Delight and sinks in quickly.

'It’s a very good price and a tiny drop goes a long way, so it will last a long time.

'A light oil like this works well for my skin, as I’m prone to break-outs.’
