The author of this article shares a fear that is widely relatable to those preoccupied with skincare — the fear of greasy face oils. Contrary to the rise in popularity and the benefits promised by face oils, the author finds them to be unappealing due to the greasy aftermath. However, after extensive research and desperate trials, the author successfully uncovers the face oil solution that suits their needs, making peace with skincare oils.
After trying and disliking numerous well-reputed oils, the author stumbled across “squalane oil”. This oil is a saturated byproduct of squalene (a molecule naturally present in our skin). It hydrates and shields the skin without the greasy drawback, due to its lightweight and quick-absorbing properties. The results have left the author relieved and elated about their discovery, and they proudly affirm that fear of slippery, shiny face oils is no longer an issue. The author ends with recommending Biossance 100% Squalane Oil, which they note is good for both skin and hair, finally pushing their fear to the side.
