REVIEW: The London Oil Company Sweet Cheeks Face Oil

You might have noticed that I have a bit of a thing for oils, particularly face oils. Sandra posted on her blog about Sweet Cheeks Face Oil from The London Oil Company and I was intrigued; it sounded wonderful. So when Vivien from The London Oil Company asked if I would like to try a sample myself, of course I said “yes, please!”

Oils from The London Oil Company are all hand-crafted in small batches and arrive beautifully packaged. They are made with completely natural ingredients, free from preservatives and absolutely not tested on animals! I love the product names; as well as face oils there are body oils such as Coffee Bum Bum and Morning Glory.

Sweet Cheeks Face Oil contains Organic Unrefined Avocado Oil, Apricot Kernel Oil, Organic Rosehip Seed Oil, Sea Buckthorn Oil, Organic Unrefined Jojoba Oil and Coffee Essential Oil which help to nourish and protect your skin.

I have been using this oil first thing in the morning after cleansing and before moisturising. To me it smells like warm rye bread as you apply the oil, then once absorbed you can’t smell anything at all. I put a drop on each cheek, my forehead, my chin and my neck then massage in. You only need to use such a small amount each time, I can see this bottle lasting a good while. It would be fab if the bottle had a dropper attached as that would make application so much easier.

The weather has gone so cold again so this oil is giving my skin an extra nourishing boost and protection against the harsh elements. The oil has a slightly amber tint to it which can give your skin a sun-kissed glow. It’s not drastic like you would get from a bronzer; it’s more of a subtle radiance. Since using this oil I have had friends and family tell me how well I look, which is amazing when you remember that I am mama to a teething 4 month old baby!

You can buy Sweet Cheeks Face Oil here in 30ml and 60ml bottles (£14 and £22). You can also try a 10ml sample bottle for £4.

Disclosure: I was sent The London Oil Company Sweet Cheeks Face Oil for free for review purposes, however all thoughts and opinion remain my own. With thanks to The London Oil Company for my sample.
