Striking Oil with MAC

Oils have long gotten a bad rap in the beauty world. No one wants skin that looks or feels greasy and it's a common misconception that oils will do just that. The truth of the matter, is that oils for your skin and hair are actually extremely beneficial and won't leave you looking like a greaseball. They're super-hydrating and are able to sink deep into your skin to provide long-lasting hydration and skin replenishment.

We can't get enough of these new Care Blends Essential Oils by MAC. Not only do they moisturize and heal dry skin, they also provide you with a healthy glow and a dose of potent aromatherapy. Available in Sweet Orange + Lavender and Grapefruit + Chamomile, the versatile oils are infused with natural healing properties derived from their namesake plants. They can be used alone or mixed in directly with your skin care creams to provide an energizing and moisturizing boost.

You can also mix them into your makeup. We know, it sounds weird, but the brand swears that adding a little drop of oil to everything from your foundation to your eyeshadow can help increase the emolliency and comfort of the product and even sheer down a color or increase the longevity of it. Like we said, they're nothing if not versatile.

The tiny bottles are the perfect size to keep in your purse or desk for a quick midday pick-me-up-just dab a drop on your temples, massage them in and breathe in the stress-busting goodness.
