Even though I have dry skin, I don't use oils much on my face. The reason is very simple; I don't feel comfortable leaving my face greasy. In winter I use oils to massage and moisturize my skin once a month or so, finishing with a hot towel to wipe extra oils on my skin, but not in summer.
But recently I use this argan oil as a moisturizer or a serum. Because argan oil is very light unlike other oils, it penetrates into skin quickly. Argan oil is extracted from argan trees in Morocco and the oil prevents sunburn. It's got vitamin E 3 times more than olive oil which prevent oxidization including dryness and aging.
But you have to be careful when you use it. It stimulates your breakouts as well, so when you have pimples on your skin, you should avoid using it.
When I feel my skin is dehydrated, I put this right after washing my face then massage into skin gently. Then I put a warm towel on my face and leave it for 30 seconds. When the towel gets cold, heat it up in microwave then put it on my face again for another 30 seconds. Then I move to the moisturizing process with lotion, moisturizer and cream.
It leaves my skin soft and hydrated. It's light so you can use it in the morning as well before putting make-up on. Do you use oils daily? How do you use them? Let me know if you have thoughts!
This serum is amazing. The best serum I've ever used....for my scalp!
Yes, this serum is for your scalp. It contains vitamin B3, B5, B6 and E which hydrate your scalp and prevent dandruff and itchiness. The package is suggestive of Hawaii -yes that is the concept of this brand Moe Moe.
It's more like lotion than serum as it's very watery. You put about 2 to 3 ml at a time over all your scalp after shampoo and conditioner, and massage into it gently then dry your hair. You will notice the fantastic scent which I cannot even describe. It smells of flowers but not too sweet, and smells very clean. It contains essential oils but I caught more of perfume-y type of smell.
It makes your whole head and hair smell so amazing. Even on a hot humid day, my hair smells so good all day. And it hydrate your scalp so if you're suffering from dry scalp or dandruff which could be caused by dryness too, you should try it out.
They have many different types of shampoos and conditioners which you can choose depending on your hair type. They all smell fantastic, I'm thinking of trying their shampoo next time I've got a chance!

Shampoo and Conditioner without silicone is very popular in Japan nowadays. The reason is because silicone especially in shampoo blocks pores on your scalp and could be a cause of troubles like fallen hair, scurf and itch. Also if you have pimples on your back, it could be silicone which stuck on your back when you wash shampoo or conditioner off.
I have been using none-silicone-shamppo and conditioner for years now. This shampoo called "Jamianne" is the one I tried most recently. It's got collagen, amino acid and caviar extract to make your hair silky and shiny.
I had never tried shampoo which has caviar extract in it. I was very curious if it smells of caviar, but it didn't smell at all instead it's got gorgeous rosy scent which is quite relaxing while washing hair.
It's actually two-in-one shampoo, which you don't need to use conditioner with it. I have fine and soft hair which get tangled easily, so I had never used two-in-one shampoo before. This shampoo doesn't make your hair coarse although it doesn't contain silicone which coats hair. It doesn't leave the rosy scent for long on your hair so you can enjoy your own perfume. I'm not sure how caviar extract is working on my hair, but I liked the idea itself!
