Facial oil recommendations please

Super drug do their own brand facial oil it's reasonably priced and very good

I have read since that emus are bred for meat too and the oil is a bi-product.
The Americans farm them apparently, similar to ostrich.

I didn't know that, Jalima. I'm actually just using up some face cream with emu oil that I brought back from holiday a couple of years ago. I wouldn't have bought it if I'd known.

Please don't use emu oil!!

Emu Oil is extracted from the thick fat on the Emu's back. To remove the oil and the surrounding fat, the Emu has to be killed. Although edible, Emu meat is considered pretty unappetising and tough

I use (or in fact forget to use) Clarins Rebalancing Oil.

Pure emu oil from Australia , buy online, really gentle and lovely but get a good one, worth the money

Or the Incredible Hulk.

a bit reminiscent of Ann of Green Gables Maggie .

Probably slightly better though than when my DD1 recommended that one application a day sun cream to me and I put it on over my usual moisturiser. When I got out of the car at the coast the family burst out laughing, as my face had turned green.

I did try a rosehip oil that I bought via a shopping channel. That had a really unpleasant smell and left a feint tinge of yellow on my face. Not a good look!

Do try Googling Marula oil. I have been using it for a couple of months now and I love it. The only downside is that it is supposed to be odourless but it does have a faint smell . It doesn't bother me but DD didn't like it because of its scent.

Excellent! Thanks all for your advice, I think I'm going to try the Nuxe one first because I've still got some unused M & S vouchers from Christmas ! But the Waitrose one sounds a real bargain at £2.99! Thanks for the tip re Boots Maggie, now I've looked around, there are some good offers on the L'Oreal oil, certainly better than the £19.99 currently selling at in my local chemist.

You're a grand lot, Gransnetters!

Waitrose do a range called Pure, their facial oil is lovely, fragrance free and light on the skin. It's about £2.99 a bottle.
Prior to that I used Boots biological range, also very good, but with a perfume.

Though I don't know if you've noticed that the L'Oreal one is 30% off on Boots online at the moment, Chewbacca?

Yes, what Juggernaut says ^.

And Sanctuary Spa's Therapist's Secret Facial Oil.

I love Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Multipurpose Oil, it's great for face, body and (in very tiny amounts) hair!
It's available from M&S, 50ml costs £17-00 and the 100ml is £29-00. Although the 100ml bottle is obviously better value, if you're only going to be using it on your face it will last forever and a day, so you would be fine with the 50ml bottle!
Try it, it's wonderful, and it doesn't smell too 'oily' either IYSWIM!

They recommend using the oil to remove make up & then cleansing, but I just massage the oil in & then rinse off & put moisturiser on.
DHC is mail order & with each order they send you 4 free samples so it's a good way to try out their products.
Also you can get smaller sizes than the one in the link.
Yes I've put bio-oil on my face sometimes!

Can you use Bio Oil on the face jane? I've used that on elbows etc but not as a facial moisturiser. And what's DHC? Not heard of that.

I use DHC olive oil cleanser. They also do a version that you apply & leave on.
The other one I like is Bio-oil.
