Smitten with Sunday Riley: Face Oils of the Goddesses

I have confessed my love of beauty oils in the past, mentioning that my dry 40+ year old skin has an affinity for them, it just drinks them up and they make my skin glow. And although this is a burgeoning niche in the beauty skincare landscape, not all oils are created equally. As a beauty editor, I have tried my fair share of face oil serums and there are only a select few that I deem RAVE worthy.

What am I looking from a face oil? A light/dry texture (NOT heavy or greasy), instant absorption, skin loving ingredients, ability to transform, and a yummy fresh smell and boy have I discovered the Motherlode with Sunday Riley Hydroactive Cellular Face Oils!!! These are divine swoon worthy oils of the Goddesses and not only do they meet my oil requirements, they surpass them! Sunday Riley Face Oils are made with proprietary oil blends that combine the best and latest biotechnology with 99% pure active ingredients which creates highly effective, results oriented, obsession worthy, celebrity coveted anti-aging face oil serums. Let me tell you more about these beautiful products.

Juno Hydroactive Cellular Face Oil ($125) is Sunday Riley’s original obsession-worthy glow giving radiance face oil. This unctuous transformative lipid serum is packed with a gorgeous blend of lightweight, fast absorbing antioxidant rich superfood oils, which are extremely high in natural retinol, Omega-3, 6, & 9, essential amino acids, Vitamin C, UV shields, and natural anti-inflammatory agents. To give you a sense of how special these products are, here are some of beautiful oils used in the Juno Serum: Meadowfoam Oil, Broccoli Oil, Carrot Oil, Chardonnay Grape Oil, Black Cumin Oil, Cranberry Seed Oil and Berry Seed Blend (Blackberry, Blueberry, Raspberry Oils.) Yummy Goodness for your skin!

Juno is an absolutely gorgeous product! It was love at first use with this oil. It smells like a fresh garden, absorbs instantly, plumps your skin and makes it luminous, supple and radiant. It’s like a magic cocktail for your face and I can’t RAVE about it enough! This is definitely an all time fav.

Artemis Hydroactive Cellular Face Oil ($125) is a sparkling, bright, lemon-scented complexion-balancing clarifying serum made with a refreshing blend of detoxifying oils that clean and tone your skin. The Artemis Oil is made with an essential oil blend of Australian medicinal plants like Lemon Ironbark and Lemon Myrtle for anti-inflammatory, purifying, and cleansing support; Milk thistle seed oil, black cumin seed oil, and pink grapefruit essential oil to help fight redness and premature aging caused by toxins and inflammation; and pomegranate seed oil for elasticity and moisture and Omega 3 rich Flax Seed Oil for calming and soothing.

This fabulous citrus based face oil serum is ideal for summer. It’s refreshing and detoxifying and the perfect way to treat your skin during the hot summer months. I think this oil might also be a great place to start if the thought of putting oils on your face sounds scary because it’s a bit lighter and more refreshing.

Isis Hydroactive Cellular Face Oil ($125) is a lovely hydrating nourishing anti-wrinkle oil blend packed with a wonderful array of Rose Oils to rejuvenate your skin. The Isis Face Oil contains Russian, Bulgarian, and Turkish rose oils which provide broad spectrum protection and anti-wrinkle support, while Rose Geranium and Palma Rosa encourage gentle lymphatic detoxification and boost production of natural oils, for soft and supple skin. It also contains the swoon worthy Rosehip seed oil, a natural source of retinol which facilitates skin regeneration as well as a blend of skin perfecting botanical lipids to help erase the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Oh Mighty Isis! I adore this deeply moisturizing oil that restores youthful radiance, texture, and hydration on a cellular level. When my skin is feeling parched, this is will be my new go to serum because it’s very nourishing. I plan on using this serum religiously during the moisture zapping winter months.

Disclosure: Sunday Riley sent me these oils for editorial consideration, but supple skin and divine insights are my own.
