PILI ANI Self-Care Night Recovery Oil is a nighttime antioxidant-rich face oil that is formulated to deeply nourish and hydrate the skin while reducing redness and irritation. It helps with breakouts, but since it is intended for all skin types it also softens the appearance of fine lines and leaves skin with pronounced clarity and a lovely luminosity. The oil is lightweight, fast absorbing and it melts into the skin leaving it soft, smooth, supple and hydrated. It is quite concentrated, and therefore only a small amount is needed for the face, neck and décolleté. I apply it to warm slightly damp skin right after I wash my face and it leaves behind no oily residue. In the morning my skin looks and feels fantastic. It has a very faint herbal aroma from the natural ingredients, not from added fragrance, but it is pleasant and not at all long-lasting.

According to PILI ANI,
