Face Friendly Oil

During the summer I like to use face oil instead of moisturizer because face oil is moisturizing, non-greasy, and it is a fresh take on thick winter lotion. Tarte Cosmetics' 'Pure Maracuja Oil' is my #1 face oil.

This 100 percent pure organic maracuja oil is harvested only once a year by Amazonian women and piece by piece they pick and extract nutrient-rich seeded pulp from each individual maracuja fruit by hand. The "soul" of the maracuja fruit is then hand pressed without the use of heat to guarantee the maximum amount of nutritious essential fatty acids and vitamins. The undiluted, organic oil absorbs quickly and after about a month I noticed that my skin was firmer, brighter, and smoother. Maracuja oil is rich in vitamin C so with continued use your skin will appear brighter and more radiant. Although this is an "oil" it did not clog my pores or cause me to break-out (thank goodness!). 

Maracuja oil is a source of essential fatty acids (EFAs) required for healthy skin cells that the body cannot produce on its own. Maracuja oil will supplement skin to infuse life back into dull skin and replenish EFAs to rapidly rebuild and repair. This oil delivers maximum hydration without any greasy or filmy feel. However, because I have naturally oily skin I only apply 'Pure Maracuja Oil' at night. Those with skin on the dry side may be able to wear this under makeup but I suggest nightly use to reap maximum benefits (your skin repairs itself at night and absorbs the most moisture then!).

'Pure Maracuja Oil' comes in a glass bottle with a medicine dropper like applicator tip. Simply dispense 1-2 drops onto your palm and warm the product up in your hands then apply it to your face. This oil has a slight smell but it doesn't affect me and my nose is usually very, very sensitive. 'Pure Maracuja Oil' is gentle, light, and healing. After using it all last summer my skin tone was visibly evened and brightened.

This summer why not try a new take on face moisturization? After all women tend to "switch up" their hair and makeup products and routines during the summer. I promise you that you and your skin will be happy with Tarte Cosmetics' 'Pure Maracuja Oil'
