zoobop is truly, deeply, madly in love with facial oils!.

They are totally worth the buzz! They brighten the skin and make it smooth, soft and glowy. Enriched with vitamins, facial oils work wonders with just a few drops and you can easily add them to your daily skin care routine. With the additional benefit of aromatherapy these little babies work like magic! No wonder you see these on the shelves of your favourite celebs and beauty bloggers.

While our body produces its own oil naturally, with age this production decreases, leaving our skin dry and dull and sometimes prone to wrinkles. That's when facial oils come to the rescue! They help in locking the moisture in the skin and keep it supple and radiant.

do they actually work?

The main purpose of a face oil is to add an extra layer protection.

They help in preventing water loss and keep the moisture sealed in our skin. Be it summer or winter, facial oils can be used in all weathers depending upon the requirement of your skin. They have anti-oxidants which help in restoring the elasticity of the skin keeping free radicals away. These awesome blossom oils improve our overall skin texture too which means easy makeup blending and in fact lesser product to use!

Skin type concerns?

.......And this is the best part, they suit ALL skin types!

Girls with oily skin might not like the idea of adding more oil to their face.. but don't be afraid, face oils can work their magic on oily, acne-prone skin too. You just need some guidance in selecting the right fit for you. Face oils control the excess oil that's produced when your skin is ripped off its natural lipid barrier due to harsh scrubs and other treatments. Check out picks for you below.

Right time to apply?

Including face oil in both morning and night time skin care routine can be extremely beneficial. It will act as the protective layer in the morning and then will help restore the skin cells at night . Applying it after the moisturizer (day/night) is ideally suggested by most skin and beauty
