The 16 Best Face Oils for Every Skin Type, Tested and Reviewed
They’re a beauty editor secret weapon.
When I think about face oils my mind goes straight to greasy, slick, suffocating, and sticky. But after extensively testing the best face oils on the market, I've learned that they're anything but. A well-formulated oil has the power to treat my skin issues (looking at you, acne) and are masters of maintaining skin hydration. You just have to pick the right player (read: jojoba oil, marula oil, moringa oil—the list goes on) to get the results you're after, but once you do, it inevitably leaves you with healthy, hydrated, and glowy skin. Trust me—I have the photos to prove it.
"Facial oils can provide benefits to the skin by acting as occlusives (which act like sealants to keep water in the skin) and emollients (which soften and strengthen the outer layer of the skin by filling in spaces between skin cells)," explains board-certified dermatologist Melissa Kanchanapoomi Levin, M.D. FAAD. "Skincare oils often form a protective barrier on the outer layer of the skin, providing antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and skin barrier repair properties."
Questioning my oil-loving antics? Try some of the best face oils for yourself. Some of the Marie Claire team and I are sharing our favorite products for oily, sensitive, dry, broken-out, and yes, even normal skin. If you’ve never given a face oil the time of day, consider this the perfect place to start.
The Best Face Oils for Every Skin Type
- Best Face Oil Overall: Drunk Elephant Marula Oil
- Best Overnight Face Oil: Dr. Brandt The Glow Overnight Retinol Oil
- Best Radiance-Boosting Face Oil: Acaderma Rainbow Radiance Face Oil
- Best Face Oil for Environmental Protection: Klur Unseasonal Kind Lipid Replenish Oil
- Best Face Oil for Sensitive Skin: Tata Harper Bio-Shield Face Oil
I credit this oil for curing my out-of-whack, ultra-sensitive skin a few years back. The formula is extremely rich in fatty acids, which help keep the moisture barrier healthy. It regulated my oil production to help my skin become glowy and no longer greasy. Perhaps the best part about this oil is the unmatched glow. I like to go heavy on the oil in the evenings and use just a few drops in my foundation in the morning for an extra bit of shine.
Key Ingredients: Marula seed oil (hydrating)
Size: 1 fl. oz.
Who It’s For: Containing nothing but 100% marula oil, this nourishing and fast-absorbing formula is great for all skin types, including oily, acne-prone, and even sensitive.
What We Love: One-ingredient formula; Non-comedogenic; Fragrance-free; Good for sensitive skin; Editor-approved
What We Don’t: Some say it sits on the skin
Review for MC: “I was first introduced to the Drunk Elephant Marula Oil by an icon in the beauty industry: former editor-in-chief of Essence Magazine, Susan Taylor. Of course, any beauty recommendation that comes from the mouth of legend is one that I immediately have to partake in, so I went out and got my own bottle. I don’t typically use oils in my routine, as I try to keep it as simple as possible. However, when my skin feels particularly dry or looks dull, this oil ALWAYS saves the day. It doesn’t break me out, which is a big deal for my acne-prone skin, and it brings life back to my skin. I will always keep a bottle in my skin-care cabinet and highly recommend you do, too.” — Ariel Baker, Freelance Beauty Writer
If you’ve ever been weary of retinol because of its somewhat harsh nature, let me introduce you to this new must-have formula from Dr. Brandt. Designed to target dullness, fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven texture while you catch up on your beauty sleep, it couples retinol and hydroxy pinacolone retinoate (HPR), an innovative retinoid that’s potent yet gentle, with hydrating squalane to nourish, not irritate, the skin. What’s more, it contains a special antioxidant-rich superfood complex, Oxiblock-SF, to further increase your glow.
Key Ingredients: Hydroxy pinacolone retinoate (rejuvenating), Oxiblock-SF (antioxidant), retinol (rejuvenating), squalane (hydrating)
Size: 1 fl. oz.
Who It’s For: Anyone who has previously avoided retinol products will appreciate the delightfully nourishing feel of this non-irritating, skin-rejuvenating oil—even those with sensitive skin!
What We Love: Non-irritating formula; Super nourishing feel; Editor-approved
What We Don’t: Can only be used at night
Review for MC: “My skin can handle retinoids pretty well (I use Tretinoin twice a week), but I was still amazed at how gentle this formula was. It acts more like a treatment than a moisturizer—it doesn’t instantly absorb—but feels soothing and nourishing. It’s fully soaked in by morning and I wake up with smooth, supple skin and the healthiest-looking glow. This has earned a permanent spot in my night routine.” — Jenna Igneri, Freelance Beauty Writer
Acaderma really packed the glow-inducing, antioxidant-rich ingredients into this advanced formula, which was designed to target signs of photoaging, such as fine lines and wrinkles, dullness, and loss of firmness and elasticity. Despite its potency, however, it feels ultra-lightweight and gentle upon application, absorbing into the skin without a trace.
Key Ingredients: Phytofluene (anti-photoaging), idebenone (antioxidant), spilanthes (fine line reducing), sweet dani basil (protective), green tea (antioxidant), grape seed (hydrating), blueberry (softening, plumping)
Size: 1 fl. Oz.
Who It’s For: Whether you’re looking for a quick glow boost or looking to reverse more prominent sun damage, this non-greasy antioxidant-packed oil will do the trick—and it works well with most skin types.
What We Love: Targets photoaging; Packed with antioxidants; Ultra-lightweight formula; Editor-approved
What We Don’t: Has a strong scent
Review for MC: “This might be one of the lightest face oils I’ve ever used—my skin drinks it up. It leaves behind virtually no residue, just a radiant glow. While I’d need to use it for longer to witness its anti-photoaging effects, it nourishes my skin—I have no winter flaking. It also smells like a creamsicle, which I definitely don’t mind.” — Jenna Igneri, Freelance Beauty Writer
Think of this face oil as your armor against the outside world. Thanks to a powerful blend of squalane, coq10, and vitamins C and E, this formula is brimming with antioxidants and mimics the skin’s natural protection mechanisms. It’s also rich in nutrients and lipids that deeply nourish, replenish, and reenergize while fortifying the natural moisture barrier for strong, healthy skin.
Key Ingredients: Squalane (hydrating), coq10 (firming), vitamin C (brightening), vitamin E (protective)
Size: 1 fl. oz.
Who It’s For: This nourishing oil is designed to be suitable for all skin types, and its protective nature makes it an extra beneficial option for people who live in high-pollution areas like cities.
What We Love: Reinforces the skin barrier; High in antioxidants; Deeply replenishing formula; Editor-approved
What We Don’t: It leaves a slightly greasy residue
Review for MC: “I’ve been using Klur’s Unseasonal Kind Lipid Replenishment Oil on and off for years now, and this stuff is magic in a bottle. My skin gets really dull and dry during the colder months of the year, and this oil instantly infuses life back into it. Living in NYC, my complexion can use an extra layer of protection. I like to put it on first thing in the morning so by the time I get around to doing my makeup, my skin is glowy, plump, and smooth.” — Jenna Igneri, Freelance Beauty Writer

Review for MC: “When I need a good skin day, I reach for this lightweight silky face oil. It’s made to work, especially for sensitive skin like mine: It’s free of over 85+ common irritants, but the magic is in all the powerful but gentle-on-skin ingredients Harper included, like adaptogens from reishi mushroom and holy basil, fruit-based vitamins C and E, oat ceramides, and plant-derived omega fatty acids. I smooth it on twice a day, and my skin is totally moisturized, soothed, and protected against the harsh winter weather. (I also love patting in a few drops as a midday pick-me-up to refresh my makeup). The gorgeous green-and-gold glass bottle looks stunning on my bathroom counter and delights me every time I reach for it.” — Brianna Peters, Freelance Beauty Writer

Some face oils run on the heavier side and should be reserved for nightly use. This one? Slather it on in the morning—it’s lightweight and packed with loads of ingredients designed to protect your skin from environmental aggressors like pollution, blue light, and free radicals.

Applying face oil to acne-prone skin may not seem intuitive, but the right formula can make a world of difference. Take this powerhouse oil from Environ, which is formulated with essential vitamins to help control blemishes while leaving skin hydrated, refreshed, and balanced. “This is an ideal facial oil for those prone to breakouts and looking for a lightweight formula,” says board-certified dermatologist and dermatologic surgeon Anetta Reszko, M.D. FAAD. “It combines vitamins A, C, and E to refine skin texture and help balance oil production.”

Le Prunier’s Plum Beauty Oil only contains one ingredient—you guessed it, plum oil—which is a nutrient powerhouse. Brimming with antioxidants, omega fatty acids, vitamins A and E, and polyphenols, this multifunctional oil deeply nourishes, protects, and seals in moisture. Beyond using it as just a face oil, it makes a great primer or a glow-boosting additive to your foundation—plus, you can use it to protect hair against heat damage, soften cuticles, or soothe dry patches.

It’s simple and fuss-free, but the natural-origin oil is highly effective at hydrating the skin and reducing signs of photoaging.

This face oil may be pricey, but it’s truly effective at infusing life back into dry skin, thanks to superstar vitamins like vitamins C and E—which firm, heal, and protect the skin from free radicals—and soothing and strengthening rosehip oil. For this reason, Marie Claire E-commerce Editor Julia Marzovilla is a big fan, noting how well it leaves her dry and dehydrated skin plump, soft, and glowing. “I also spent two weeks in Los Angeles (a famously dry place) with just this face oil and my regular moisturizer and made it through with flying colors,” she notes.
Key Ingredients: Rosehip oil (hydrating), jojoba oil (hydrating), vitamin C (firming), vitamin E (healing)
Size: 1 fl. oz.

Calling all combination skin types! This particular option from True Botanicals can replace your moisturizer and provide thorough, albeit lightweight hydration to keep your temperamental skin in check.

What to Look For in Face Oil
- Type of Oil
There is a wide range of oils to choose from—and the best one for you is closely related to your specific skin type and concern. "For example, for sun-damaged skin, rosehip oil is one of my favorite oils since it has a high ratio of linoleic acid, which has not only been shown to be beneficial for those with acne, but also has been shown to reverse UV-induced hyperpigmentation," explains Dr. Levin.
Oily skin and acne-prone skin, on the other hand, are best off with jojoba oil. "Its structure mimics your own skin's natural sebum, which is appropriate for oily and acne-prone skin while providing moisturization," she adds. Tea tree oil is also a great facial oil alternative to acne-fighting ingredients such as salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide. (There is a rare chance of allergic contact dermatitis with tea tree oil so if you develop a rash, it’s important to see a board-certified dermatologist.)
- Treatment
More often than not, these products are packed with additional ingredients that provide supplementary benefits. "Since some facial oils are antioxidants and have vitamins like C and E, they neutralize free radicals to slow the aging process," says Dr. Levin. "Certain facial oils have hydration properties and can be used as a moisturizer to help restore the natural oils in the skin and hair, improve skin hydration, and restore and strengthen the skin’s natural protective barrier."
- Fragrance
If you're not sensitive, then by all means, go straight for the deliciously smelling products. If you are sensitive? Steer clear. "Fragrant plant-based oils or essential oils can cause skin irritation, photosensitivity, and even cause allergic reactions," says Dr. Levin. Those with known plant-based allergies or sensitive skin in general should avoid fragrant essential oils. Look for jojoba oil, plum oil, argan oil, or grapeseed oil options.
How to Use Face Oil
When it comes to face oil, a little goes a long way, notes Dr. Reszko. “Apply two to three drops of the face oil to your fingers and gently pat it into your skin, starting from the neck and working your way up and outwards,” she says. As a rule of thumb, face oil should be the very last step in your nighttime skincare routine, and for daytime use, it should be applied after your serums and moisturizers and before your sunscreen and makeup.
However, Dr. Levin notes that you should exercise caution when applying it in the morning. "When using an oil during the day, you do need to be careful about how it interferes with your SPF, as oils have the ability to break down or dilute your sun protection," she says. If you're new to the oil game, stick with nighttime application to start as you grow accustomed to the formula.
Can I Use a Face Oil If I Have Oily Skin?
"It used to be widely believed that using oil in your skin-care routine was a no-no for acne or oily-prone skin. We now understand well that not all oils are the same, and while some facial oils can clog skin and worsen acne, the right oils can actually re-balance the skin's sebum and water ratio as well as help hydrate and moisturize the skin," says Dr. Levin.
That being said, it’s all about finding the right oil, says Dr. Reszko. “Look for lightweight, non-comedogenic oils like jojoba or squalane, which won’t feel heavy when applied or greasy to the touch, to help balance and promote the regulation of sebum production without clogging pores.” Argan, marula, and rosehip oils are also great non-comedogenic choices.
Why Trust Us
To compile this list of the best face oils, we scoured the internet and combed through countless customer reviews to find the top-rated options on the market. We also asked the Marie Claire team to share their holy grail picks, tapped dermatologists for their go-to formulas and insights, and asked independent and staff testers to test a mix of cult favorites and new launches.
How We Tested
For each face oil we tested, we assessed the formula's texture and finish, how well it absorbed, and its overall efficacy in delivering its promised benefits—whether that was to hydrate, plump fine lines, or boost radiance deeply.
