Hazelnut oil is known for its astringent and penetrating qualities, which makes it an excellent facial oil for acneic skin conditions, or those looking to tone and tighten the skin. This oil prevents dehydration of the skin, leaving it soft, smooth and stimulating to the circulation. It is especially good at reducing puffiness around the eyes. We love blending hazelnut oil with sweet almond and red raspberry to assist with acne and inflammation.
