Hey all! I am a major hoarder of the face serums and oils and I usually have loads of them in my closet at any given point of time. Interestingly, I ordered for Biotique ageless serum while I am typing away this post. Well, old habits die hard and if you find something interesting and inexpensive being raved about, how can you skip it? So, let me breakdown the products into face serums and oils.
Face Oils
Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate
Bought a long time back and I have not managed to reach even half of the bottle. You need just a bit and you are good to go. The oil is really light in texture and sometimes not enough to combat the dryness. Overall, I do not have much to say about it except it smells nice thanks to the lavender essential oil.
The Ordinary 100% Plant-Derived Squalene
I have used it a couple of times but honestly I am not very impressed. I am not sure if I know how to use the product correctly yet but it makes my skin too oily. Anyways, this is a product which is still under trial so reviews are yet to come.
Indulgeo Rose Gold Oil
One of my whim buys which I liked using but I have to use it regularly to say a word about it. For now, I like it as it makes my face glow.
Camellia Oil
I got this from Moksha lifestyle which is my go to place for essential oils. This oil is light and perfect for dry skin. It makes my skin silky smooth in fact. I would definitely suggest you to try it out.
Macademia Nut Oil
Well, I ordered this along with camellia oil from Moksha lifestyle. And, this was supposed to be for my hair as well. So, I have used it on my face and hair both. And, I love how it combats dryness in Delhi winters. It protects the skin from cracking and keeps it supple and glowing. Absolute must try again!

Face Serums
The Ordinary Marine Hyaluronics (Reviewed here)
Not much of a fan! But, experiencing a product of this kind asserts the importance of hydration in the skin care routine. Any serum with hyaluronic acid is a must.
Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair (Reviewed here)
My absolute favorite which works for all kinds of skin types and ages and keeps skin healthy and glowing. Definitely would recommend you to try it out.
Kiehl’s Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate (Reviewed here)
The first vitamin C serum I have tried which did not impress me enough but does bring out the beauty of using vitamin C serums as a accompaniment to the sunscreen.
The Ordinary Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12%
I have not yet started using the product. This is one of my The Ordinary’s products I got in June and I am really looking forward to trying it out. Fingers crossed!
Whoa! And, this list seems incomplete to me because I have skipped a few moisturizers on my shelf. I would probably take half of next year to get finished with all of them without adding any to the stash. And, oh I forgot to include the Arya Vaidya Sala’s kumkumadi oil in the above list. Using and reviewing so many products at the same time is impossible so for now I am just enjoying using them all at same or different times.
Do let me know if you would like to know more about any specific product and may be I could do a thorough reviewing after using it alone diligently. Till then, ciao!
Loved reading your stash of face oils and serums. I too have many of them currently. Would like a detailed review on the Camellia oil.
sure, will do!
