Best oils for dry skin

People with dry don’t produce enough sebum, which waterproofs and lubricates our skin. “Oils improve the skin’s barrier function through an occlusive effect,” says Dr. Skotnicki. This means it stays on the skin and is easily absorbed. Dry skin benefits from pretty much every oil, but some—such as almond, jojoba and avocado— are richer and more hydrating.
