As we age, our skin tends to need different things. This deliciously nourishing face oil is great for mature skin because it’s packed with nutrients and includes some targeted oils for fine lines, scars, and more.

Why Jojoba Oil is great for your skin

Jojoba is an all-around great base choice because it’s full of Vitamin E and omegas, while Avocado is great for skin that is inflamed or dry. Rosehip is the ultimate calming oil for redness, Frankincense helps with scars and other marks, and Ylang Ylang helps minimize the appearance of wrinkles.
