Multiply the bottles to nourish your ends, satin your legs and bring a little more comfort to your face? Very little for us. Especially when the bathroom is already starting to look like a Sephora annex.
The new 3-in-1 dry oil from Petit Olivier has been designed to move from one area to another without changing the product. A few drops on the skin, a few more on the lengths, and that’s it. All with a dry texture that promises to penetrate quickly.
Face, body, hair: one bottle for three routines
Petit Olivier 3-in-1 dry oil can be applied daily to the face and body, but also to dry lengths and ends. On the skin, a few drops heated between the hands are enough before massaging. On the hair, we stay light on the quantity and we mainly target the lengths.
It can even be used as an oil bath before shampooing: the brand then recommends spreading it over the hair and leaving it on for at least ten minutes. Another small practical use: a few drops can be massaged around the nails to finish a manicure.
Three precious oils to nourish without leaving a greasy film
In the bottle, we find a fairly classic but effective trio: argan oil, macadamia oil and sweet almond oil. Argan provides unsaturated fatty acids and antioxidant vitamin E, while macadamia and sweet almond oils contribute to the softening and softening side of the formula.
The argan oil used by the brand also comes from a fair partnership with a women’s cooperative from the Essaouira Solar Village. The formula has 95% ingredients of natural origin, does not contain silicone and currently obtains a score of 98/100 on Yuka. Its scent remains present, with floral and woody notes: pleasant if you like to transform the application into a little sensory moment.
Can you use a dry oil every day on the face?
Yes, as long as it suits your skin. A few drops are enough, ideally applied to skin that is still slightly damp or after a moisturizing serum. Very oily or blemish-prone skin will sometimes prefer to reserve oil for dry areas. And since the Petit Olivier formula is scented, particularly reactive skin may prefer to use it on the body.
How to apply dry oil without greasing your hair?
The secret lies above all in quantity. One or two drops heated in the hands then passed only on the lengths and ends keep the result light. Better to start with very little product and add more if necessary. For a more nourishing action, the oil can also be used before shampooing then rinsed.
What is the difference between dry oil and classic oil?
A dry oil is formulated to leave a much less greasy feel and more quickly absorbed. It provides the nourishing benefits of an oil while being easier to use during the day or before getting dressed. This does not mean that it is devoid of vegetable oils: it is mainly its feel after application that changes.
