Oil Obsession

I have always been a naturally oily person, so the thought of putting oil on my hair or skin never crossed my mind until about three years ago.....

I read in a beauty magazine that after cleansing your skin you should put "good" oil on to keep your natural, yucky, acne causing oil from surfacing. 

I tried it and I swear it changed my skin for the better. I have fewer breakouts and my skin seems more balanced. I now use this practice on my hair too, and I can go an extra day before I need to shampoo!

Here are the products that I use and love: 

This shampoo is sulfate free, SLS free, smells nice, and is easy to find. Plus it's very cheap. My hair is so soft now and my scalp is far less oily. I don't know what I will do if they ever stop making it..... 

This facial cleanser removes makeup wonderfully. It makes my face feel clean, but not squeaky clean. My skin glows after using it.



I have tried four different facial oils and this one is my favorite. I use it at night before I go to sleep and when I wake up my skin feels amazing. This stuff is pricey though. (around $20 for a small bottle) so only use a few drops each night.



Oil It has fewer chemical ingredients than lotion and can be used in place of lotion. I like Jojoba for that.
  So go ahead and give oil a chance!
