Women over 50 are turning to dry oils as a hydrating and non-greasy alternative to traditional oils and creams. Dry oils, such as jojoba, argan, grapeseed, rosehip seed, and sunflower oil, provide quick absorption, boost hydration, reduce redness and inflammation, and protect the skin from free radical damage. They are loaded with essential fatty acids that nourish skin cells and promote tissue and cell regeneration. Dry oils can lock in moisture, act as a barrier against environmental triggers, combat sun spots and uneven skin, protect against skin cancer and sun damage, and keep breakouts at bay. They can be used as a finishing step in skincare routines and can also be applied to hair, cuticles, and other areas that need moisturizing. Some recommended dry oils include e.l.f. SKIN Nourishing Facial Oil, Neutrogena Fragrance-Free Body Oil, and Pura D'Or Rosehip Oil.
