What the gurus are saying

Gurus praise this oil for its hydrating, nourishing power and its ability to lock in other skincare products when applied as a final evening step, especially during cooler months or when using actives like retinoids. The formula's smaller molecular profile means it absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy feel, so just a few drops go a long way. The main thing to keep in mind: applying an oil early in a routine can create a barrier that prevents other active ingredients from penetrating deeply, which is why experts suggest reserving it for the last step. Those with naturally dry skin tend to get the most benefit.

"I'm currently using the True Botanicals Pure Radiance Oil, love this. This sits by my bed so I do my skincare routine, let it all soak in, and then right before I go to bed I pat this in. This is soaked in and gives me a nice occlusive barrier so my skin can heal and regenerate over the nighttime. It's the perfect step for sealing in all your skincare and nourishing your skin overnight so you wake up with hydrated gorgeous skin, especially in the winter months. Two drops of a facial oil is really all you need."

"At the very end of my evening routine I always use a facial oil in the cooler months and this is the True Botanicals Pure Radiance Oil. This is divine. I keep a facial oil by my bed in the cooler months and I do it right before I go to bed. My skincare is already soaked in and it just locks it in before I go to sleep, and I wake up with gorgeous, hydrated skin and not all those dry flakies that I typically get when I'm using a retinoid, especially in the winter and fall months."

"This is so much more than just an oil. It's nutrient rich, powered by omega fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins that really help to replenish and restore skin. It makes my skin so incredibly soft, so hydrated, and it just gives this incredible radiance. For years, this is what I used as a moisturizer. I would only use my serums and put this on and I was done. When I was on this trip to the US, my face started to really act up. It was red. It was irritated. I think it was a new cleanser that was the culprit. So I stopped everything except this and sunscreen. And that's all I wore. And I'm telling you, this stuff is gold dust."

"True Botanicals is a brand that I have actually used long before I started this channel, and in particular one hero product which is the Pure Radiance Oil. I think I've been using this for about five years because my friend Leslee introduced me to it. In fact, it's the only thing I have on my face right now is the True Botanicals oil. I also adore the Chibola serum, which is an antioxidant serum, super potent. It's just so beautiful. I love True Botanicals. They're based in Northern California."

"My number one Holy Grail product from True Botanicals is the Pure Radiance Oil. I cannot express how much I love this product or how many of these jars I have recycled over the years. I have been using this oil for way longer than I've had this channel. It is not a standard oil; it is a blend of omega-3 fatty acids, it has 14 seed oils, it has an algae extract, it has alanin which helps to deliver a very hydrated, visibly plump and natural looking skin. I know that oils make a lot of people nervous, but it does not clog your pores because it's the smaller molecular profile. It just sinks into your skin and it's kind of gone. It's not oily. You only need a few drops, you just press it into the skin, and this is glow in a bottle."

"If I could only pick two products to have for the rest of my life one of them would be from these guys and that's the pure Radiance oil. I have used this for years. I mean way longer than I've had this channel. In fact all my girlfriends at home use it. Like she's an Old Faithful. She's multitasking and my mature skin loves her more than water. I mean my skin just drinks it up."

"It's their popular Pure Radiance Oil. It's $120, which does not surprise me, True Botanicals is a more luxury brand. This oil specifically has a ton of natural extracts like green tea, avocado oil, marula oil. It's really packed with a bunch of really beneficial natural extracts and seed oils. Here's my issue though: starting off your skincare routine with a face oil can be counterproductive to the rest of the products that you're going to be using in your routine because what they essentially do is create a seal over top of the skin to make sure that you're withholding any hydration that your skin already has and preventing any water in your skin from escaping. But if you're wanting to use like exfoliating ingredients or hydrating ingredients, with the barrier that a face oil puts on your skin it's going to make it more difficult for those ingredients to be able to deeply penetrate your skin and for you to get the full benefit of whatever active skin ingredients you're using, which is why usually face oils are best to apply as the last step of your skincare routine."
