Skincare Oils for Different Skin Types & Concerns
Nourishing Oils for Hydration, Barrier Support & Healthy-Looking Skin
Facial oils can be a useful addition to a well-balanced skincare routine when your skin needs extra nourishment, softness and moisture support. At Idun Aesthetics, our curated collection of skincare oils includes professional skincare brands such as SIV, Circadia, Re-Dox Skin Lab, Fusion Meso and more.
Whether your skin feels dry and tight, looks dull, or needs additional nourishment, the right facial oil can complement your existing routine. Oils can be incorporated alongside Cleansers, Exfoliators, Mists/Toners, Serums, Moisturisers and SPF to create a routine suited to your individual skin needs.
Why Add Facial Oil to Your Skincare Routine?
Facial oils are formulated to provide nourishment and help support the skin's moisture barrier. Depending on the formulation, they may contain botanical oils, essential fatty acids, antioxidants and other skin-supporting ingredients.
A suitable facial oil may help:
- Improve the feeling of dryness and tightness
- Leave skin feeling softer and smoother
- Support the skin's moisture barrier
- Add nourishment to dry or dehydrated skin
- Complement serums and moisturisers
- Give the complexion a healthy-looking finish
The best facial oil depends on your skin type, concerns and existing routine. A richer formula is not always the best choice, so consider the texture, ingredients and directions of the individual product.

Choose Facial Oils Based on Your Skin Type
Oils for Dry Skin
Dry skin may benefit from nourishing facial oils that help reduce the feeling of tightness and leave the complexion feeling softer and more comfortable. Look for formulas that complement your moisturiser and support a comfortable skin feel without unnecessary heaviness. For a complete routine, pair your oil with a gentle Cleanser, hydrating Serum and suitable Moisturiser.
Oils for Combination Skin
Combination skin often needs a balanced approach because different areas of the face may have different needs. A lightweight facial oil can provide nourishment without making oilier areas feel overly rich. Start with a small amount and focus application on areas that need additional nourishment.
Oils for Oily Skin
Having oily skin does not automatically mean you need to avoid facial oils. The formulation, texture and amount used are important factors when choosing an oil for oily or combination skin. If you are prone to congestion or blemishes, choose products carefully and introduce a new oil gradually.
Oils for Normal Skin
Normal skin can benefit from facial oils when additional nourishment or a smoother skin feel is desired. A lightweight formula can complement an everyday routine without adding unnecessary steps.
Oils for Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin often benefits from a simple and carefully considered skincare routine. When choosing a facial oil, look for a suitable formulation and introduce new products one at a time. If your skin is particularly reactive, consider professional guidance before adding a new product to your routine.
Skincare Oils for Common Skin Concerns
Dry & Dehydrated Skin
Facial oils can complement hydrating skincare products by helping the skin feel nourished and comfortable. Oils work best as part of a broader routine rather than as a replacement for water-based hydration. Explore Mists/Toners, Serums and Moisturisers to build a routine focused on hydration and skin comfort.
Dull-Looking Skin
If your complexion looks tired or lacks radiance, a facial oil containing nourishing or antioxidant-focused ingredients may complement your existing skincare routine. Consistent use of Cleansers, Serums and SPF can also help support a healthy-looking complexion.
Ageing Skin
For skin showing visible signs of ageing, facial oils can provide additional nourishment and leave the skin feeling smoother and softer. They can complement a routine that includes targeted Serums and Moisturisers.
Sensitive or Easily Discomforted Skin
When skin feels sensitive or easily uncomfortable, product selection becomes particularly important. Choose a formulation appropriate for your skin and introduce it gradually rather than changing several products at once.
How to Use Facial Oil in Your Skincare Routine
The best place for facial oil in your routine depends on the individual product and your other skincare steps. A simple routine may look like this:
Morning
Cleanser
Mist/Toner
Serum
Moisturiser
SPF
Evening
Cleanser
Exfoliator, when appropriate
Mist/Toner
Serum
Moisturiser
Facial Oil
Facial oil is often used towards the end of an evening routine, but always follow the application instructions provided with the specific product.
During the day, SPF should remain an important part of your skincare routine.
