Oil softens as you sleep

The Body Shop is touting its Vitamin E Overnight Serum-in-Oil as an overnight skin treatment that combines the power of a serum and oil to replenish and recharge skin with moisture while you sleep. The non-greasy, fast-absorbing formula contains the company’s highest concentration of wheat-germ oil to leave skin soft and radiant.

We say: “Softer skin while we sleep? Sign us up!” Our tester was nervous about trying an overnight face oil on her combination/ acne-prone skin, but she was thrilled with the results. The easily absorbed oil has a luxurious scent and leaves skin feeling lighter, brighter and fully moisturized. While this product might be too oil-based for those with super-slick skin, those battling dry areas or overall dull skin woes will find an ally with this new hybrid serum.

Price: $28 at Thebodyshop.ca or The Body Shop stores.
