Learn when and how to layer Super Greens Nutrient Boost Oil in an ageing skin routine, from order of application to mixing with moisturiser.
Quick answer
Apply Super Greens Nutrient Boost Oil after your water-based serum and before or mixed with your moisturiser, using 2–3 drops on clean, slightly damp skin. For ageing skin, this order helps the oil seal in hydration without blocking lighter layers.
Why the order matters for ageing skin
As skin matures, its barrier can lose moisture more easily, so the goal is to layer hydration first and seal it with oil. Applying a face oil before serums can create a film that stops lighter formulas from absorbing, which is why the sequence below puts the oil near the end.
This oil is cold-pressed and organic, and it is described as nutrient-dense to reinforce the skin’s resilience against daily stressors. That makes it a supportive step rather than a replacement for targeted treatments.
When to choose oil with moisturiser versus oil before moisturiser
If your moisturiser is rich and you prefer a lighter feel, mix 2 drops of oil into your moisturiser in your palm and apply together. If your skin feels tight or you want a more occlusive finish, apply the oil first and follow with moisturiser. Neither method is wrong; the choice depends on how much richness your skin tolerates.
For daytime, a thin layer under sunscreen works for very dry skin, but be aware that oil can make some sunscreens pill. Test on a small area first.
A note on omega oils and ageing skin
The catalog describes this as a green juice for your complexion, but it does not list specific omega fatty acid content. If you are specifically looking for an omega oil for ageing skin, check the full ingredient list on the product page or patch test before committing to a full routine.
Step-by-step application
- Start with damp skin: Cleanse, then leave skin slightly damp from water or a hydrating mist. Apply your water-based serum next and let it absorb for 30 seconds. Damp skin helps the oil spread further and lock in moisture.
- Measure 2–3 drops: Warm the oil between your palms and press it gently over your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Start with 2 drops; add a third only if your skin still feels tight. More oil is not better—excess can leave a greasy film and waste product.
- Choose your moisturiser method: Either apply moisturiser over the oil, or mix 2 drops of oil into your moisturiser in your hand and apply together. Use the first method for very dry skin, the second for a lighter finish. Whichever you choose, apply sunscreen last in the morning.
- Use morning or evening: For daytime, follow with sunscreen. For evening, this can be your last skincare step. If your skin feels congested, use the oil only at night. Introduce it 3–4 times a week first, then increase to daily if skin feels comfortable.
