Facial oils are all the rage these days, with many lines coming out with a product for the category. One of the best we’ve found is by John Paul Selects – the same people who make high-quality hair care products that we’ve loved for years.
The new oil is called Pure Marula Facial Oil. It’s light and absorbs into the skin quickly and deeply, unlike other products that simply sit on the skin and don’t absorb well. We’ve used it at night and appreciate the fact that it doesn’t have a strong scent that might keep us awake. But more importantly we wake up with our skin ultra-hydrated and fresh.
The product also improves skin elasticity with 50% more antioxidants than Argan oil, minus the greasy feel and overwhelming scent that Argan-based products often have.
Another great thing is John Paul Selects uses a Fair Trade Partnership with rural African women harvesting the ingredients for Marula Facial Oil, a process which also preserves groves of trees. You can also add some to your foundation for added moisture and to other facial products to give them more efficacy. And here’s another benefit – it’s doctor-endorsed and tested, according to the company.
Pure Marula Facial Oil comes in a 50 ml/1.69 fluid ounce bottle with a dropper to dispense it, and retails for $78. There is also a travel size roll-on available for about $15. The Pure Marula line also includes cleansing lotion, facial lotion and eye cream. We can’t wait to try them, based on how much we’ve enjoyed the facial oil. They are all available at www.sephora.com.
