Just curious - does anyone use these?  if so, do you only use them at night?  I received a set of 3 small oils as a gift.  I've used one for a few days, but only at night.  They're a bit too heavy for daytime.  Not sure if I like the fragrance or not.

I have used the algae one during the day - that seems to be the lightest of the three.  The other two I also use at night.  However, I will also add a drop or two of the oils to my daytime moisturizer, especially during the cold weather.

@Bookplate thank you!  never thought to add a drop or 2 to my daytime moisturizer!

The Divine Elixir Luminous Oil (orange one) was a longtime favorite of mine, but I eventually cancelled my auto-ship in lieu of more affordable skincare options.  I would use it at night but would also add a drop or two in the AM in winter, if needed, and if I was going to be home and not wear any makeup.  The other day I ordered some jojoba oil and jojoba butter, which isupposed to be soothing, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and really good for your skin's barrier.  My order is being delivered today. I'm looking forward to trying it.

I add a drop of Bliss Salvation Hydration which is mostly camellia oil to my daily mositurizer.  I also have some jojoba oil that I sometimes use at night as a final barrier step, especially in cold weather. I really have to have an oil when I go out west for our ski trips.

Which jojoba oil are you ordering and from where? I want to try.

Thanks so much!

@Knit-Chick  - what a nice gift! These a fabulous skincare oils. 

SKINN® Divine Elixir Mini Oil Trio

773-781

D started offering a lipid facial oil years also long before facial oils became popular and long before I read anyone here posting about the use of blended facial oils. 

I've been using the Divine Elixir oil for several years - ever since D launched it as a TS on HSN. I still have it on the awesome TS on subscription. I use this one and the Ayurvedic oil at night. I blended a drop of each and press into face,neck, décolleté over serums and before moisturizer. But you can definitely blend into moisturizer 

The blue algae is for a.m. you can press onto skin over serums or mixed into moisturizer.

The scents don't bother me at all. Nothing lingers

There is a difference between single oils like Argan, maracuja or jojoba oils or blended oils like what D offers. The blended oils are more beneficial and you can find them at decent pricing during event specials and with coupons.

HSN offers Skinn products at good pricing, you just need to time your purchases and secure them on subscription. Easy peasy...no need to buy cheaper items to save a few bucks when the trade off is not beneficial

I'm not doubting this, I'm just wondering where you may have heard/read this about blended oils.

While I do use a few oils all the time, I've never gotten a ready-made blend. I'll have to check out Skinn's!

@Harpa - I read many beauty product/techniques articles and reviews online. I never just use one source - better to consider a wide range of opinions or sources Just do a google search for specifics such as 'facial oils recommendations' 'blended or single essential oils' With new developments and science, there's always something new to consider and possibly incorporate - I'm always interested to learn and adapt. Do your own research! 

D has shared good info about his oils, the sources, blends and applications during his presentations. He introduced his Lipid oil years ago on ShopHQ - I've been using facial oils ever since then. 

Good luck finding what works best for you!
