Why should facial oil go on damp skin?

Short answer

On damp skin, the oil forms a micro-emulsion that spreads evenly, absorbs better and doesn't leave a greasy film.

Explanation

The book recommends 2–3 drops of the Omega-Renewal Facial Elixir pressed into damp skin. The oil is anhydrous and needs no preservative; it's bottled in amber or cobalt glass, rested 24–48 hours, stored at 18–22 °C rather than in the fridge, and keeps 9–12 months.

What to do

  • Use completely dry tools when making oil blends: moisture causes spoilage.
