Our Day Defence Face & Makeup Oil is a daily nourishing oil that strengthens the skin barrier, protects against environmental damage, and delivers a healthy, radiant glow.

Powered by ceramide-rich plant oils and antioxidants, this lightweight blend is perfect for daily use. It helps your skin stay calm, balanced and resilient.

Best face oil benefits:

  • Strengthens the skin barrier with ceramide-rich plant oils to lock in moisture and guard against stressors
  • Deeply nourishes with jojoba and chia seed oil to combat dryness and dehydration
  • Fights free radical damage with acai and seabuckthorn oils for a revitalised, youthful-looking complexion
  • Antioxidant-rich with natural Vitamin E to protect against daily environmental stress
  • Lightweight and fast-absorbing — never greasy
  • Doubles as a radiance-boosting makeup oil
  • Refillable and sustainably packaged
  • Vegan, cruelty-free and Australian made

Please note: this oil contains almond (nut-derived) oil. Avoid if you have a nut allergy.

Is a face oil good for mature skin?

Yes. Mature skin produces less oil, so a nourishing facial oil helps restore softness and bounce. This lightweight blend absorbs quickly without clogging pores. It supports the skin barrier and leaves a healthy, natural glow.

Can I wear a face oil under makeup?

Yes. Press a few drops into clean skin and let it absorb. It creates a smooth, hydrated base so foundation applies evenly and looks radiant. You can also mix a drop into your foundation for extra glow.

What we leave out matters
