As strange as this concept may seem, a dry oil does indeed exist! In this blog post we will help demystify what a dry oil is and how to use it.
Gone are the days of body and face oils leaving a greasy residue and making you look and feel like an oily mess. The use of the word dry refers to the finish these advanced formulation oils leave on your skin. They absorb completely, leaving you with wonderfully soft, hydrated skin. A few minutes after application, you won’t even feel like you have applied any oil to your skin. You will just be left with the wonderful after effects.
Dry oils are characterized by the following properties:
- No greasiness
- Lightweight
- Does not leave a wet, oily residue on your skin
How do you use a dry oil effectively?
