Especially during winters, My face tend to get dry on certain areas resulting in patches. So, to combat dryness, In addition to my moisturizer I always add a facial oil to give that extra boost to my skin!

“Applying vitamins topically is just as important as taking a daily multi-vitamin supplement. Certain vitamins need one another to reach maximum potency. That’s why I wanted to formulate a treatment oil with six key vitamins that would deliver six key benefits for total skin rejuvenation. The result is Multi-Vitamin Infusion Oil, a potent blend of vitamins A, B, C, D, E, and F. This noncomedogenic treatment oil for all skin types helps activate recovery where skin needs it.”—Dr. Murad
