Great for skin and hair!
This is an awesome product. It is a mix of cold press oils plus other extra ingredients that makes the whole mix very moisturizing. It is great for skin and hair and I will breakdown the reasons for each one.<br /><br />Skin:<br />One pump is enough for your face. First time, I tried 2 pumps and it was very oily and took sometime to get absorbed. Since it's greasy, I only use it during my PM routine, to avoid excess of oil during the day and greasy look.<br />I ran the ingredients through the EWG database and they are all EWG 1, meaning they are low hazard for the skin. There are also no paraben, sulfates, or any other bad ingredients that are high hazard for skin such as fragrance that is a very common and very bad ingredient.<br /><br />Hair:<br />I have followed the Curly Girl Method (CGM) for over a year now, which recommends avoiding ingredients that are not too good for scalp and hair such as sulfates, drying alcohols, non-water soluble waxes, parabens and silicones. None of these are included in this product. I have been using this oil as pre-poo, which is basically adding 2 pumps into my scalp and 2 more into my hair (wavy, length half way back) before taking a shower and leaves my hair soft and moisturized.<br /><br />With the above explanation on ingredients I avoid for my skin and hair, it is difficult to find a product that meet both requirements, but this product does!!
Leaves Skin Feeling Soft!
I really like this face oil by Dose of Colors. It is fragrance free, but it has a light, pleasant smell to it. It does feel a bit oily, but that goes away after several minutes. I'm only using this at nighttime, because it's too heavy for daytime use in my opinion. It doesn't annoy my sensitive skin. It leaves my skin feeling super soft!
Feels soothing on your face
My skin is only semi-sensitive. This feels soothing and does provide extra moisture to the skin. Absorbs quickly for an oil.
Moisturizing but needs to be rubbed in
* I am in my early 30s with sensitive acne-prone skin with very very dry patches. I have some acne scars, discoloration and quite a bit of sebaceous filaments.<br /><br />Description of Product:<br />- Dose of Colors Cold Pressed Booster Multi-Use Oil 1oz<br />- This is a thicker oil - almost gel like, though it does eventually run if you tilt it<br />- It has a light herb-y scent that goes away<br />- The bottle has a rubberized texture, which is nice to hold and won't slip even if your hands are slippery with the oil which is a nice touch<br /><br />My Impression:<br />- After washing my face, I applied 1 pump of oil on my by-then very dry face<br />- It goes on easily but my hands became shiny and oily<br />- This did not absorb readily and I had to rub in the oil for quite a while until the shine subsided a bit<br /><br />Conclusion:<br />- For me, it was a bit too heavy - perhaps I'll try mixing this in with another moisturizer and apply it before bed as a sleep mask?<br />- It did not cause any redness, irritation or further breakouts but it did seem to cause my sebaceous filaments to swell a bit with the oil (shivers)<br />- Overall, very moisturizing and this would be good for those who want to lock in moisture that has very very dry skin
Best For PM As A Little Heavy & Greasy, Boosts Moisture Well & Skin Feels Soft, Light Lavender Scent
Dose of Colors Cold Pressed Booster Multi-Use Oil agrees well with my dry, sensitive skin. I do find this Booster oil a little heavier than some other facial oil blends, but it doesn’t bother me as I tend to use facial oil blends of this type at night, and my skin is dry enough that I can use this during the day. I just have to be careful not to apply too much. When I add a little oil to my cream, I get extra moisture and the oil makes my skin feel soft and look dewy.<br /><br />This Booster has a high percentage of squalane (about 44%). It’s one of my favorite ingredients as it adds extra moisture to my dry skin and makes my skin smooth and soft. For daytime, I do have 100% squalane that I tend to prefer to this Booster oil just because it’s so lightweight yet gives me that extra moisture and softness. But I’d rather use like the the Booster oil blend at night as it has additional ingredients beyond squalane that add benefits, such as antioxidant and fatty acid rich sunflower seed oil.<br /><br />At night, I’ve tried this Booster oil various ways. I’ve applied it after cleansing and toning but would rather use a regular serum. I’ve mixed it with my night cream and have also applied after my cream. I feel there’s no right or wrong way, but I like it best added after my night cream as I can use all my regular products yet I also get an extra boost of antioxidants and moisture that can soak protect and nourish my skin all night. I like waking up to skin that still feels hydrated and comfortable.<br /><br />I’m impressed that this Booster oil emphasizes natural and gentle ingredients, and it also lacks chemical fragrance. I do smell a hint of lavender oil. It can be an irritant form some and can give me headaches if it’s too strong. Luckily, it’s subtle enough not to cause an issue. In fact, this Booster oil doesn’t cause any irritation to my sensitive skin at all. Like it a lot. 4.5 stars. Made in Canada.
