Bonne Huile Wednesday: Gorgeous Gems from African Botanics, Sisley, Aesop and evanhealy

Press Samples & Purchased by me (Unaffiliated Links)

A couple of readers emailed me to ask what new beauty oils I was currently testing out, and I thought that I would do a post to share four of my new luxury oil loves. It will be a little while before you see my full reviews since I need to use each of these twinkling jewels longer, but I can tell you that each one is a true treasure. 

African Botanics Pure Marula Oil ($80.00 for 2 oz): Pure Marula Oil is a cold pressed, weightless, anti-aging botanical oil sourced from the remote pristine areas of South Africa's Marula Belt. Concentrated with powerful antioxidants, vitamins C + E  that help cells renew, resist and protect against free radical damage. Exceptionally high in Essential Fatty Acids (Omega 9 & Omega 6) that deeply hydrate skin and reduce redness while protecting against the elements. Softens the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, increases skin elasticity, plumps and revitalizes your complexion.

Ideal as an anti-aging moisturizer or as a serum booster on all skin types all year round. Super fine in texture it stimulates healthy collagen production leaving supple, dewy and deeply nourished skin. Can be used alone, layered or added to your existing beauty products to boost their efficacy.

African Botanics Pure Marula Oil is a gloriously lightweight and fast absorbing oil that deeply nourishes and hydrates the skin. It plumps fine lines and gives skin a pronounced luminosity. This is luxury oil perfection!

Sisley Black Rose Precious Face Oil ($235.00): Black Rose Precious Face Oil is Sisley’s first skin care oil for dry or mature skin. With a high concentration of active ingredients, this silky-smooth dry oil prepares, and nourishes with an anti-aging effect. 

Rich in omega 3 and 6, it prepares the skin to receive its daily skin care. This oil provides the essential elements for the skin’s vitality and youthfulness with its powerful blend of plant-based active ingredients that nourish, regenerate and protect (Padina pavonica, unsaponifiables of avocado and natural tocopherols). Plum and camelina oils maintain the lipid balance of the epidermis. 

Black Rose extract lies at the heart of the formula and lends a wonderful silky softness. It is combined with essential oils of Bulgarian rose and magnolia, which have toning and soothing properties for a delicious awakening of the senses. 

Visibly smooths wrinkles and fine lines, and revitalizes the skin for a radiant complexion.

Sisley Black Rose Precious Face Oil is an amazing dry oil that is formulated to nourish dry and/or mature skin. While I neither have dry, not mature skin-- I find this to be a miraculous performer! My skin feels like velvet whenever I use this antioxidant rich anti-aging powerhouse luxury oil. Skin is left toned and lifted and fine lines are softened. The scent is a gorgeous refined rose that is intoxicatingly beautiful-- it's so beautiful, in fact, that I periodically find myself opening the bottle to just smell its magnificence! It leaves skin with a noteworthy glow, and it is so nourishing and moisturizing that skin is radically transformed into its best version of itself!

Aesop Fabulous Face Oil ($57.00): A daily moisturizing botanical oil for normal, dull or congested skin. Nine carefully selected botanicals deliver exceptional hydrating and fortifying benefits to detoxify, smooth and balance normal or patchy skin, with a non-greasy finish. Suited to all seasons, cities and skin types.

Aesop Fabulous Face Oil is a very nourishing skin that not only leaves skin beautifully balanced and hydrated, bit the pronounced aromatherapeutic qualities of the very detectable Ylang Ylang is very soothing and relaxing to the spirit. This is a really lovely beauty oil that is a great find when you want to slip into a restful slumber at bedtime!

evanhealy Argan Intensive Facial Serum ($29.95): Featuring precious and exotic essential oils of ancient Sandalwood, night blooming Jasmine & Sacred Frankincense from Oman. Our Serum’s exceptional regenerative action comes from hand-pressed, certified organic argan oil exclusively produced by the small, self-governed Berber Women’s Co-Operatives of Morocco. Rich in saponins, Argan Intensive Facial Serum works to soften the skin and to minimize the appearance of brown spots, fine lines and wrinkles.

evanhealy Argan Intensive Facial Serum is a lovely blend of Sandalwood, Night Jasmine and Sacred Frankincense, and their lovely combination  treats the skin and the senses. I first experienced this lovely oil during my Luminescence Facial with Joan Uemura Shure (reviewed here), and I loved it so much that I ran right out and bought it!

You will be hearing a great deal more about all four of these oils, but I will say without reservation that they are all quite amazing!
