Founded by celebrity makeup artist Rose Marie Swift, rms beauty has long enjoyed a loyal celebrity following (including Gisele Bündchen, Miranda Kerr, and Zoe Saldana) and cult status in niche boutiques from New York to Paris. With its first skincare product, devotees now have one more reason to love the brand. This radiance-boosting face oil softens and delays the signs of aging with a potent cocktail of antioxidants.
I've read a lot about RMS, and I prefer their natural ingredients. This oil is wonderful, hydrating, healing, and just feels great to apply. I use it after washing and toning, and it leaves me with a great glow. I use it day and/or night, in addition to the RMS beauty concealer for under eye. Again, that product is so rich, yet light and hydrating.
5I've used face oils before, but never stuck with them. I was not impressed. Most oils just kind of sat on top of my skin. The first night I used this oil, my skin looked amazing (for me) in the morning. My skin looked clearer, more plumped up. A week or two later, I went to Nordstrom where a very helpful beauty consultant recommended Kate Sommerville Dermal Quench before applying my face oil. What a difference! I thought I loved this oil before, but now ... wow! Apparently, my face wasn't dry, it was dehydrated. Who knew? Even my melasma is fading. Worth every penny. Seriously. I know some people are bothered by the smell, but I love it and look forward to it every night (and most mornings).
5I had never tried a facial oil before, and was worried about what it would do to my combination skin, but I love the rms concealer, so I took the plunge and bought a bottle. That was a year ago and it was the best thing I have ever done for my face, truly truly! After about two weeks I stopped wearing primer because, well, I just didn't need it anymore. My face got brighter, redness diminished, my PORES SHRUNK (wow!), and old acne scars were starting to fade. I use Retin-A for adult acne and it used to be I would get a couple pimples if I missed even one night- now I can miss a week and not break out! I use it around my eyes at night, and all over my face and neck morning and night. I used less in the summer, and now in the winter am layering it on. I really like the smell, but I would describe it as organic smell, so I could understand why some people might be put off. Just put a few drops of lavender essential oil in it if you must, but definitely try this product!
