When temperatures drop, skin changes.
Cold air outdoors and dry indoor heating weaken the skin barrier, leaving complexion looking dull, textured, or tight — even when you’re moisturizing consistently.
The key to winter glow skin isn’t layering more cream. It’s sealing hydration properly.
A well-formulated facial oil locks in moisture, supports the barrier, and restores that soft, luminous finish winter tends to strip away.
Here are the four I use consistently during colder months.
1. L’Occitane Immortelle Divine Youth Oil
A lightweight yet nourishing oil that absorbs beautifully without leaving residue. It softens the look of dry patches and helps foundation apply more evenly in winter.
Ideal for: Skin that feels tight or makeup that starts separating midday.
2. Omorovicza Miracle Facial Oil
An elegant, silky oil that feels refined and balanced on the skin. It supports winter-stressed complexions without heaviness and leaves skin looking smooth and settled.
Ideal for: Dull or environmentally stressed skin.
3. Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil
Powered by squalane for barrier support and vitamin C for brightness, this oil delivers luminosity without feeling greasy. It wears beautifully under makeup.
Ideal for: Uneven tone or lack of radiance in colder months.
4. Kjaer Weis The Beautiful Oil
A richer, treatment-style oil that feels cushioning but never suffocating. I reach for this when my skin feels delicate or reactive during winter.
Ideal for: Dry, mature, or sensitivity-prone skin.
How to Use Facial Oil for Winter Glow
Apply in this order:
Cleanser → Hydrating Serum → Moisturizer → Facial Oil
Always press oil into the skin — never rub.
Use 2–3 drops only.
Warm it between your palms before application.
Facial oil should make skin look comfortable and refined — not shiny.
