How to Use Our Face Oil

A natural honey antioxidant rich Face oil is one of the best ways to nourish, feed and protect your skin. Packed with nutrient-rich botanical oils, our Face Oils help to add a vitamin boost, lock in moisture, support your skin's natural barrier and leave your complexion feeling soft, smooth and radiant.

Whether you choose Bumble Bee for dry skin, Busy Bee for combination/changing skin or Sensitive Bee for sensitive skin, our Face Oils are designed to be used as part of your daily skincare routine.

Watch Bec's step-by-step demonstration above to see exactly how to get the best from your Face Oil.

Step 1 – Apply to Damp Skin

After cleansing and applying your Face Spritz, dispense 2–3 drops of Face Oil into the palm of your hand, or, onto your fingertips if you prefer.

Applying Face Oil to slightly damp skin (either from water or your face spritz), adds water based hydration and slip.

Step 2 – Gently Massage

Gently press into your skin and massage over your face, neck and décolletage, using upward, circular movements.

Step 3 – Finish with Face Cream

Allow the oil to absorb for a few moments before applying your Face Cream to help seal in your nutrient-rich Face Oil and keep your skin feeling comfortable throughout the day or night.

Top Tips

Use just 2–3 drops – a little goes a long way.
Always apply after your Face Spritz or while your skin is still slightly damp.
Take a few extra moments to gently massage your skin to aid relaxation.
Use in combination with your favourite face maintenance tool.
Follow with another misting of your Face Spritz before applying your Face Cream.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I apply Face Oil before or after my moisturiser?
For our skincare routine, apply your Face Oil after your Face Spritz and before your Face Cream - a great tip is to apply your products thinnest to thickest - for ours our face cream is of higher molecular weight than our Face-Serum Oil so it goes on afterwards.

Can I use Face Oil every day?
Yes. Our Face Oils are suitable for daily morning and evening use.

Will the Face Oil make my skin feel greasy?
No. Just a few drops are all you need. Our lightweight blend absorbs beautifully, leaving your skin feeling nourished rather than oily.

Can I use Face Oil if I have combination skin?
Yes. Busy Bee Face Oil is specially formulated for combination and blemish-prone skin, contrary to popular belief the right Face Oil is essential for breakout prone, oily skin - skin will become oilier and more breakout prone if it isn't moisturised adequately in a skin appropriate manner.

I already use a Face Cream, do I need to use a Face Oil too?
For best results, yes. They support your skin in performing different jobs; your Face Oil adds concentrated nutrients and moisture and your Face Cream adds water hydration and breathable occlusive protection. Together, they naturally support all skin types and maximise each other's results.

Do I need to use a Serum as well as the Face Oil?
No, our Face Oil is a Serum-Oil and contains lower weight molecules that penetrate further into the skin (act as a serum) and higher weight molecules that sit further up on the skin (act as an oil), so your skin has the best of both worlds. However, should you wish to add an active serum such as a vitamin C or retinol, you absolutely can. This would be applied before your Face Oil.
