Omega Enriched Face Booster Oil
Revitalize depleted skin with a deeply penetrating omega essential oil boost.
I crafted my Omega Enriched Face Booster Oil for a dear friend who has extremely dry and sensitive skin. I used my 25+ years of clinical dermatology experience to create a therapeutic botanically-based Face Oil free from notorious botanical allergens. It's become one of our most popular products here at Dr. Bailey Skin Care.

All the oils in my Omega Enriched Face Oil are organic and of the highest quality to maximize key active components scientifically proven to benefit skin.
Rich in skin healing ingredients, these beautiful oils absorb into your skin to leave it soft and soothed, never slick or oily. My Face Oil is fast-absorbing for a “STAT” recharge to balance hydration and load your skin with organic antioxidant and vitamin rich botanical actives.
Use my Omega Enriched Face Booster Oil alone or mix a few drops with your favorite moisturizer or other skin care products to boost results. It’s the perfect facial booster oil and ultimate beard oil too!
I formulated my Omega Enriched Face Booster Oil specifically with botanical oils known to strengthen and benefit your skin's barrier. These oils include:
-
Organic sea buckthorn oil
This helps improve skin’s water-holding capacity to resist dehydration that causes crepey skin and can lead to chapping and irritation.
-
Organic borage oil
This is one of the best sources of the essential fatty acid gamma-linoleic acid (GLA) proven to have strong anti-inflammatory benefits. (Essential fatty acids are oils that your skin can’t make but needs and must be supplied by you for optimal skin health!)
GLA is also critically important to your skin’s health for maintenance of proper skin barrier function and a healthy appearance. Your skin can’t make its own gamma-linoleic acid and applying borage oil has been shown in scientific studies to benefit skin lipid and immune balance.
GLA is also important in modulating your skin’s inflammatory response both in dermal (lower) and epidermal (top) living layers. Skin readily absorbs GLA from topical application of GLA rich oils, and borage oil is the best botanical source in my opinion. Borage oil is also considered by some to improve eczema, fight skin inflammation and improve skin texture and appearance. The borage oil in my Omega Enriched Booster Oil is organic and of the highest quality – because it’s a detail that matters!
-
Cypress essential oil
This is antiseptic and anti-oxidant containing flavonoids, phenolic compounds. It also imparts a subtle woodland scent to this enriched facial booster oil.
-
Other, key ingredients
These include carefully sourced organic blend of kukui nut oil, argan oil, pomegranate seed oil, rosehip seed oil, jojoba oil, sunflower seed oil, castor seed oil.
The Omega Enriched Face Booster Oil (and beard oil) is fast absorbing, never slick and won’t clog pores for most skin types.
