Every modern woman dreams of being beautiful. At a young age, this task is not difficult to cope with. Healthy, clean, smooth skin without wrinkles is one of the assets of youth. Unfortunately, with age, aging processes are inevitable. What to do?
The modern beauty industry is ready to offer thousands of products to choose from, declaring that they will help you restore youthful skin and get rid of wrinkles. In a few days or weeks. Sometimes a visible result can really be seen almost the first time. Unfortunately, the fabulous effect of such remedies ends with the end of the miracle remedy.
In most cases, such products contain hormonal complexes, which cause such a rapid effect of supposed skin rejuvenation. Such drugs, if their use is stopped, can even accelerate the reverse effect.
Is it possible to give up anti-wrinkle creams and still maintain youthful and elastic skin? Natural products are widely used in cosmetology to maintain skin elasticity and freshness. Among them, oils occupy a worthy place.
Advantages and disadvantages of oils
The main and undeniable advantage of oils is, of course, their naturalness and the absence of chemicals. Any oil is unique and contains trace elements, fatty acids and vitamins necessary to maintain beauty.
Taking care of your skin using oil recipes can be a creative and fun process. Having studied the type and properties of your skin, you can create compositions that will most effectively solve your specific problems.
Natural oils, while possessing a number of beneficial properties, also have their drawbacks. Oils do not contain water; their constant use can cause dry skin and flaking. The use of exclusively oils disrupts the mechanisms of the sebaceous glands and leads to the formation of enlarged sebaceous pores. High concentrations of some oils can cause irritation or even burns.
- You should only buy oils at a pharmacy, keep them in a cool, dry place, and do not use them after the specified shelf life has expired;
- apply oils to damp, clean skin;
- use not constantly, but in a course, with short breaks;
- combine essential oils in combination with base extracts;
- Before using a new oil, conduct a test to identify allergic reactions;
- do not completely abandon moisturizers in favor of oils;
- Use oils following the dosage according to the recipe.
Which ones are the best?
Natural oils are very popular in cosmetology as anti-aging agents.

- Orange oil Suitable for all skin types. Effectively smoothes the skin, making it elastic, smooth, normalizes oiliness, relieves muscle tension, and is included in anti-cellulite products. Orange oil increases blood circulation, which is why it has earned one of the first places in the ranking for combating the first wrinkles;

Flaxseed oil is used in cosmetic formulations as a base component. An excellent rejuvenating effect is obtained by using flaxseed oil on an empty stomach, 1 tablespoon in courses of 8-10 days.
- Wheat germ oil contains a whole bunch of vitamins and microelements that the skin needs to maintain freshness. Vitamins A, B, D, PP, polyunsaturated fatty acids, lecithin actively stimulate metabolic processes.

The use of this oil in combination with other components has a pronounced rejuvenating effect on sagging skin prone to dryness and irritation. This little one keeps for a very long time. It is known that jojoba oil was discovered in the Egyptian pyramids. Remaining untouched for such a long period, the oil has not lost its beneficial properties and effectiveness.

In order for the use of natural cosmetics to be effective, it is necessary to select and combine them correctly.
One of the main criteria is selection based on your skin type.
- For normal and combination skin, the following oils are suitable: grape seed, melon, jojoba, apricot, hazelnut;
- Coconut, almond, rosehip, mango, sandalwood, and borage oils are suitable for dry skin;

Rules of use and recipes
It is important to remember that the use of oil not in combination with other components can be not only ineffective, but even dangerous. Therefore, we only use oils prepared according to recipes.
Products prepared on the basis of natural oils can be of two types: masks, which are applied for a certain amount of time and then removed. Or cream-type compositions that remain on the skin for a long time, for example overnight.
In both cases, the composition should be applied to damp, cleansed skin. It is better to do this in the evening, before bed. Before using natural oils, it is advisable to treat the skin with a light, non-traumatic peeling, then the composition will be easily distributed evenly and will not clog the sebaceous glands, causing irritation.
To apply oils to the skin, pour a small amount of the composition into the palm of your hand, with the other hand grab a small amount onto your fingertips and distribute it over the surface of the skin with light massaging movements. We pay special attention to the décolleté area and the skin around the mouth and eyes, which are most susceptible to the formation of wrinkles.

Reviews from women
- My friend, she is already over 50 and looks at least 10 years old. For the last 6-7 years she has been constantly using castor oil. Simply take it on the tip of your finger and pat it on the skin around the eyes. I also started using it a year ago and already see improvements. I want to try other oils; in general, they say that it is most effective to use them in combination.
- I have very dry skin, and early mesh began to appear around my eyes. I've tried a bunch of creams. The coolest remedy is to take equal proportions of jojoba, grape seed and peach oil. I usually take a couple of drops per cut. It should be applied in the evening, at night. The effect is great in the morning!

Facial muscles make up to 15 thousand movements per day. This leads to creases or folds in the skin. In youth they quickly smooth out. But over time, the dermis loses its ability to recover. Because of this, deeper and deeper wrinkles appear. Anti-wrinkle facial oils will help fight them.
Essential and cosmetic oils are natural skin care products. They are produced by squeezing the “juice” from seeds, grains, sprouts, roots and other parts of various plants. The advantage of such cosmetics is its composition. Anti-wrinkle facial oils contain a set of beneficial natural ingredients. There are dozens of types - from apricot to coconut. These “elixirs of youth” are sold in pharmacies and cosmetic stores.
Which is better: store-bought cream or natural oil?
The peculiarity is that oils, especially essential ones, have to be combined with other components. You need to prepare special mixtures. And since stores now have a wide selection of high-quality cosmetics, many women find it easier to simply buy a ready-made anti-aging cream. But what is better for the face - industrial cream or natural oil? Each of these tools has its own strengths and weaknesses.
5 arguments in favor of oils
Some experts advise using only oil. They say that in this case the result will be faster and more lasting. The first changes are noticeable within a month. What else do these skin care products benefit from compared to store-bought cosmetics? There are five key benefits.
- Good price . Oil can be selected at a price of 150 rubles per 100 ml. For example, this is how much sea buckthorn squeeze costs. For 50 ml of anti-aging cream from a popular brand you will have to pay from 360 rubles.
- Versatile application. Plant extracts are needed not only for facial rejuvenation. In one bottle - care for hands, feet, and hair.
- Naturalness. The natural substances that make up the oils stimulate the production of collagen, protect the epidermis, and saturate it with oxygen and moisture. Store-bought cream cannot boast of such a noble composition. Fragrances, dyes, preservatives and other synthetics are added to creams.
- No addiction. Cosmetologists say that creams are addictive. And here there are two options for the development of events. First: you will have to use the same product all the time, since when you change the brand, all previously achieved improvements are leveled out. Second: on the contrary, it will be necessary to periodically change the brand, since wrinkles quickly “adapt” to the permanent cream and do not respond to “treatment”. Natural cosmetics are not addictive. It is effective both with constant use and with breaks.
- Long lasting effect. Oils solve the problem of skin aging at the cellular level. They reduce the depth of existing wrinkles and temporarily block the process of new ones appearing.
Disadvantages of natural cosmetics
Other experts believe that you should not use cosmetic oils on your face instead of creams. And this is how they argue their opinion.
- They act aggressively. Oils are high in fat, which can be harmful for women suffering from sebum production disorders. The composition of creams is more balanced. There are also fats here, but their amount does not exceed 40%. And the remaining components are selected depending on the skin type and other characteristics of the target audience.
- Pores clog. Facial oil instead of cream is not suitable for regular use for oily skin types. This product clogs the pores, causing acne to appear.
- Dry the skin. When a woman constantly applies anti-wrinkle oil to her face, natural fat metabolism is disrupted. This product creates a special film that prevents the skin from breathing and prevents excess moisture from evaporating. Metabolism slows down, skin becomes even drier.
Application: 3 rules
If a woman decides to use oil for wrinkles on her face, cosmetologists advise adhering to certain rules. This will allow you to get the maximum benefit from natural cosmetics and avoid side effects.
- Take breaks. It's better not to use it regularly. Apply oils in courses from time to time.
- The emphasis is on problem areas. Use the product point-wise, applying exclusively to problem areas.
- Alternative to cream. Sometimes, if you don’t have your cream on hand, you can use oil instead.
What types of oils are there?
What anti-wrinkle oils should I use for my face? Much depends on the condition of the skin and the expected results. So, some oils are used only to soften the skin under the eyes. Others can be applied to the entire face. Therefore, every woman has her own “best” anti-wrinkle facial oil.
When you start searching for a suitable product, please note that there are ready-made cosmetic oils for the face against wrinkles, and there are essential oils. It's not the same thing. They may even have the same name, but have different purposes. Therefore, you need to pay attention to the packaging, which indicates which group - essential or cosmetic - a particular product belongs to.
Cosmetic
For example, olive, jojoba, grape seed, sea buckthorn. This is a standalone product that can be used by simply opening the tube. This already includes base oils, esters, and extractives.
Recommended for aging, dry skin and under the eyes. Some are also suitable for oily types, as they can relieve inflammation.
How to use? Apply with a cotton pad to wrinkled areas. To remove excess oil after the procedure, a paper napkin will do. This oil is also used to create handmade face cream. You can add a few drops to the finished product.
Essential
These are, for example, fir, clove, orange, lemon. Essential oils for the face against wrinkles are distinguished from cosmetic oils by their consistency. They are concentrated, have a characteristic smell and evaporate in the room. Esters are used for aromatization, treatment, and relaxation. And, conversely, to increase mental activity and become more alert.
Essential oils for the face must be combined with other components, otherwise there will be irritation. You can, for example, add it to washing foam. But not in cream.
Review of facial oils for wrinkles
Some types of oils are better for treating wrinkles on the forehead and nasolabial triangle, while others are needed for treating the area around the eyes. Which “elixir” is best suited for what purposes?
For the forehead, bridge of the nose and nasolabial triangle
Wrinkles appear even in young women. This is due to the quality of cosmetics, stress, and bad habits. Oils in the early stages of the formation of such depressions are especially effective. Here is a list of those that can be used to lubricate your face.
- Camphor. In cosmetology, white camphor oil is most often used. Suitable for those with oily skin and a lot of acne. Helps regulate the functioning of the sebaceous glands, fights acne, and prevents their appearance.
- Linen. You should take the unrefined one, because it contains more vitamins - retinol, tocopherol, vitamin F. Flaxseed “juice” softens and nourishes, and has a peeling effect.
- Jojoba. Soothes, relieves irritation, removes redness and pimples. It is thick, so it is better to dilute it. In its pure form, only certain areas can be processed.
- Cocoa . Helps rejuvenate and make aging skin more elastic. It is recommended to use it in winter to protect against chapping. It is solid, but melts instantly upon contact with the skin.
- Coconut. This product will help quickly eliminate flaking, dryness, and prevent roughness. Smoothes and removes shallow wrinkles. It is applied before going to the beach to ensure an even tan. And also afterwards to cool and soothe the skin.
For areas around the eyes
The skin around the eyes is thin. There are no sebaceous glands, so fine wrinkles form easily. They are also called "crow's feet." Some types of natural oils will help get rid of “paws”.
- Castor. Prepared from castor bean seeds. Suitable for dry skin. Nourishes it, softens it, copes with peeling and roughness.
- Olive. Softens dry skin, nourishes, helps retain water, but does not clog pores.
- Peach. Removes dryness and flaking, smoothes wrinkles, relieves inflammation.
- Rosehip oil . It contains about 15 types of acids, but most of all - linoleic, oleic, linolenic. They are needed for elasticity. If the body lacks these substances, the skin wrinkles prematurely.
- Apricot. Essential for skin that suffers from a lack of nutrients and moisture. Tones, softens, nourishes, smoothes wrinkles.
- Wheat germ. Record holder for the amount of beauty vitamin - tocopherol. Helps if your lips are chapped.
- Sesame. Prevents the formation of new wrinkles, removes flaking, soothes irritated skin, relieves itching and swelling of the eyelids. The composition contains lecithin, which softens and moisturizes. And protein helps maintain elasticity.
- Sea buckthorn. Removes wrinkles, softens, moisturizes, “erases” freckles. It is recommended to use it in combination with other oils.
As a rule, anti-wrinkle facial oil does not cause allergies. However, individual intolerance is possible, so you should always check the reaction at the bend of the elbow.

Natural facial oils for wrinkles: pros and cons
Preparing mixtures of natural oils for facial skin care requires additional time and effort. Wherein oils are difficult to wash off from the skin and have a short shelf life. But all these disadvantages cover such positive aspects as:
- accessibility and versatility;
- natural composition and hypoallergenic;
- solving problems at a deep level;
- duration of effect.
Rules of application
To achieve maximum effect from the use of oils, you must adhere to certain rules:
- Purchase only in specialized stores or pharmacies.
- Store at room temperature no higher than 20 °C in a tightly closed container.
- Do not apply the same composition to your face for more than 21 days in a row. After the course of procedures, you need to give your skin a rest for 1 – 2 weeks.
- Mix no more than 7 different types of oils.
IMPORTANT! Any essential oils have a high concentration, so before applying them to the face they need to be diluted with base oils (for example, sunflower or linseed).
How to get rid of wrinkles at home?
Wrinkles become visible on the face due to loss of skin elasticity, withering due to lack of moisture in the pores and poor ecology. Delicate facial skin needs regular maintenance of its health and elasticity. Oils made from natural ingredients serve as an excellent means for performing massage manipulations on sensitive areas of the face.
At the same time, you can always do a set of exercises for the eyes, mouth and forehead at home to smooth out facial wrinkles and even out the tone of your face.
REFERENCE! In combination with correctly selected oil components, facial massage will give an immediate effect after the first week of its implementation.
Can oil be used instead of face cream?
The oil perfectly nourishes and moisturizes delicate facial skin due to the plant extracts it contains. But you shouldn’t overuse oils without using cream at all, for several reasons:
- There is no water in natural oil, and the skin needs hydration to supply moisture to the epidermis. Creams contain the necessary amount of liquid, which prevents the skin from drying and flaking.
- The use of oils without creams can cause expansion and contamination of pores due to disruption of the sebaceous glands.
- Creams used in conjunction with oils help maintain the natural barrier of the epidermis and prevent the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays on the skin.
Factory cream for aging skin: pros and cons
The manufacturer of creams provides a variety of options to choose from, depending on the composition and age of use. Any factory creams have their positive aspects:
- a wide selection to suit every taste and budget;
- ease of use (there are always instructions available with all the necessary information);
- saving time (no need to prepare and mix ingredients, you can just buy and start using).
In addition to the significant advantages of using creams, there are also significant negative aspects:
- natural and effective creams are always expensive, and when buying inexpensive products, you are never sure of their effectiveness and safety;
- cause the skin to quickly become accustomed to the components, and therefore require regular changes of the creams used;
- have a superficial effect on wrinkles without solving underlying problems with skin aging;
- contain synthetic components that are addictive to the skin and disrupt its immunity.
