The precious liquids extracted from various seeds and plants help prevent water loss from the skin while incorporating nutrients. It also helps that many face oils are compatible with all skin types. They’re a final glowy step to the rest of your skincare routine. When it comes to these coveted consistencies, you’re probably most familiar with jojoba, argan, almond and rosehip, to name a few—but Beautyologie has searched far and wide to bring you some of the most innovative and unconventional oils on the planet.

Katari Black Seed Oil Black Seed

Black Seed Oil

You may be unfamiliar with black seed oil, but it likely rings a bell to anyone who works in medicine. The powerful liquid originated in ancient Egypt and was pressed from the seeds of Nigella sativa (better known as black cumin). It has massive healing properties, ranging from killing cancer cells to easing eczema and even aiding mosquito bites. When it comes to skincare in particular, it does wonders for people who are acne-prone. Our favorite is Katari Mediterranean Black Seed Oil.

 

Baobab Oil 

If versatility is your goal in a self-care purchase, Baobab oil is one of your best bets. The all-star liquid, pressed from the seeds of the Baobab tree, is indigenous to Africa, and boasts head-to-toe benefits. Known primarily for its hydrating properties, Baobab oil is heralded for healing dry cuticles, aiding dry scalp and providing a natural glow to the skin. It can be applied daily and worn alone or mixed with other products. We recommend Baobab Oil.

Cold-pressed from dried seeds on farms in Egypt’s Delta of the Nile, Granate also helps repair environmental damage while restoring skin to its natural pH levels.

Buriti oil (aka Aguaje oil) is a woman’s wonder oil! Not only is it the world’s richest source of Vitamin A (retinol), but it also balances hormones. Advised against using while pregnant (due to its photo-estrogen inclusion), this Peruvian oil rebuilds and hydrates skin cells and protects natural collagen and elastin, while restoring moisture to sun-damaged skin. Steer clear if you’re wearing light clothing, as the oil’s deep amber hue is known to stain. Check out Candela Aguaje Oil.
