Facial Oils

A good facial oil is one of the simplest ways to give your skin a little more of what nature already knows how to provide. Pressed and blended from plant seeds, nuts and fruits, a natural facial oil works with your skin’s own barrier rather than against it — softening, nourishing and helping lock in moisture through the day and overnight. At Nurme, every facial oil is made by hand in Estonia, vegan and cruelty-free, and free from synthetic fragrances, colourants, silicones and parabens. What you put on your face is simply what the plant gave, nothing hidden.

What a facial oil actually does

Skin loses moisture constantly, and an oil helps slow that loss while delivering fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants straight to the surface. A few drops pressed gently into damp skin can calm the feeling of tightness, add a soft glow and support a healthy barrier. Facial oils suit almost everyone: lighter, fast-absorbing oils feel weightless on combination or oily skin, while richer blends bring comfort to dry, mature or winter-stressed skin. Use one on its own in the evening, or add a drop to your usual moisturiser for extra nourishment.

Choosing the right oil for your skin

The best way to choose is to start with how your skin feels. If it tends to be dry or reactive, look for a nourishing, protective blend; if it is oily or breakout-prone, a lighter oil that absorbs quickly is more comfortable. Many of our facial oils are built on single-ingredient base oils, so you can keep your routine beautifully simple, and some carry a gentle botanical scent from carefully chosen essential oils rather than synthetic perfume.

Where an oil fits in your routine

Oil is the last leave-on step, sealing in everything underneath. Begin with clean skin — our facial cleansing range prepares the face gently — then warm two or three drops between your palms and press them in. It pairs naturally with the rest of our face care, and the same plant-based approach carries over to our body oils and butters if you would like the same nourishing ritual head to toe.

A ritual worth keeping

There is something quietly grounding about the evening moment when you press an oil into your skin — a small pause that belongs entirely to you. If you would like to share that feeling, a facial oil also makes a thoughtful present on its own or within one of our gift boxes.
