Meet Your New Skin Savior for Ramadan

Fasting over Ramadan can be a challenge, especially in warmer climates where you need to stay hydrated and the same goes for your skin. Drinking 2-3 liters of water a day is known to increase elasticity in your skin, and keep you healthy from within, but if you will be observing Ramadan this year we have just the thing to stop your skin from being affected by your change in routine.

Skin oils are not a new concept but the questions we often ask ourselves when thinking about purchasing one are “will it make my skin break out? Do I really need another beauty product?” The answers are No, and Yes. Face oils are designed to make your skin look and feel better, hydrate it and target problem areas, leaving your skin smoother and softer – which also means you can also wear less makeup without having to worry about covering any skin issues that are bothering you.

Beauty oils are also multi-functional; not only do they make for a great moisturizer, you can use them to touch up your makeup – instead of adding more makeup, simply pat some oil on to resuscitate what you already have on. (Avoid the T-zone unless you have dry skin). You can also use your oil as a frizz fighter, cuticle softener, under eye cream and lip balm. Yes, all that magic from just one bottle!

During the month of Ramadan, a beauty oil will not only be your best friend, but will change your beauty regime altogether! We’ve picked the best 5 for an instantly amazing visage…
