One of skin care's newest oils comes from a very familiar fruit: plum. We expect to see plum oil, which is considered more powerful than both argan and marula oil, popping up more frequently in products over the next year. Le Prunier is officially ahead of the curve with its Plum Beauty Oil, which is comprised of a patent-pending blend of plum varietals from their 100-year-old California plum farm.
Asarai comes to you from the land down under and was founded by a seasoned naturopath who's keen on bringing plant life to vanities across the world. The brand's fragrance-free Power Trip Vitamin Oil features camellia and sunflower seed oils, which are bolstered by vitamin E, vitamin C and linoleic acid. The result is hydrated, soothed, brightened skin.
If you're in the mood to really splurge, throw your cash at Shiseido's well-reviewed Future Solution LX Replenishing Treatment Oil. This luxury oil features an all-star blend of primrose, jojoba, macadamia nut, argan and safflower oils to soften and deeply hydrate skin. Add to that the brand's patented Skingenecell 1P, a synthetic amino acid that acts as a Serpin B3 inhibitor, which has been shown to correct existing UV-damage.
This multitasking elixir from Wander is thin and viscous, and skin happily drinks it up in seconds. It's made with shea butter and vitamin E, as well as primrose, camellia, meadowfoam, olive, castor, sunflower and raspberry oils. You'll love the inventive tube packaging, which makes it especially easy to travel with or to even keep in your purse or gym bag.
We're going out with a bang via La Mer, a brand that synonymous with luxury. The Renewal Oil costs $245 per ounce, but the string of five-star reviews claiming that it's "liquid gold" indicates it's worth every pretty penny. It's made with the brand's famous "Miracle Broth," which features sea-sourced active ingredients that help bolster collagen production and the skin's barrier for a more youthful appearance. It also contains a slew of rich oils, including meadowfoam, sweet almond, jojoba, sunflower, sesame and eucalyptus.
