Is it beneficial to use facial oils in humid weather?

The woefully high humidity levels in Singapore can make picking out the best beauty products for your skin a difficult challenge. You may believe that using overly-moisturising products can cause clogged pores and promote greasiness. So when it comes to the question of using facial oils in the tropics, one might hesitate to include it in their beauty routine. We’re here to tell you that there is no need to balk at the use of facial oils. If used correctly, they could actually help with the problem of dull and congested skin. The key, really, is to use an effective and high-quality oil that can combat the basic problems of dryness and aging.

The benefits of using facial oils

At first thought, it might seem bizarre and downright crazy to want to add an oil-based product to your routine, but believe us when we say that a facial oil can significantly reduce the damage done to your skin through constant exposure to an air-conditioned environment and polluted atmosphere. Such external aggressors can cause dehydration, premature aging, fine lines and wrinkles.

Not only will a good quality facial oil help promote a more youthful appearance, it can also help balance the sebum that your face secretes, thus preventing breakouts in the long-run. You won’t have to worry about clogged pores and congestion once your skin settles down and adapts to the effects of the oil.

So, you may be asking: “What’s a suitable facial oil and how should I be using it?”

The History of Whoo’s Cheongidan Hwa Hyun Wild Ginseng Ampoule Oil

Even the Korean beauty experts at The History of Whoo believe that humid weather shouldn’t stop you from adding a facial oil to your routine. One of their most effective oils is the Hwa Hyun Wild Ginseng Ampoule Oil, from their restorative Cheongidan line that harnesses the powerful anti-aging properties of rare and potent oriental ingredients.

The Hwa Hyun Wild Ginseng Ampoule Oil is an intensively concentrated premium herbal ampoule oil that features the powerful natural benefits of 7-year-old wild ginseng. In fact, 54% of the contents in this product is made up of nourishing organic 7-year-old wild ginseng oil. Along with a cocktail of 32 revitalising oriental herbs to boost radiance and promote blood circulation, the hydrating ginseng-based elixir creates a fantastic barrier that sits between your skin and the harsh environment. Say goodbye to dull skin and free radicals, and hello to youthful, resilient and well-balanced skin.

Using the ampoule oil for maximum benefits

Usage is simple. Twice a day (morning and evening), dispense a small amount of the oil onto your palms and gently rub your hands together to warm it up, then gently press onto skin in a soft patting motion until the luxurious product is fully absorbed. Easy! Not only that, the ampoule oil can also be mixed with your favourite liquid foundation in a 3-parts-foundation-to-1-part-oil ratio for an extremely nourishing base that will leave your skin protected from the elements and looking flawless and dewy.
