Óleo ou Creme: qual devo escolher para passar no rosto?

Oil or Cream: which one should I choose to apply to my face?

Both oil and cream are essential in a skincare routine, helping with skin hydration, but they serve different functions. Understand.

Do you want to boost hydration but are unsure which clean beauty product to choose? Both oils and creams are essential in a skincare routine, but they serve different functions.


Facial oil

It can be extracted from plants, seeds, or fruits. In the case of Liquid Forest, a multi-benefit oil from Amakos da Amazônia, there is no addition of water or petroleum derivatives. Among its benefits:

  • Works as a sealant, as it prevents water loss and therefore boosts hydration;

  • Contains vitamins and antioxidants that promote cellular regeneration;

  • Improves skin elasticity;

  • Combats inflammation;

  • Balances oiliness;

  • Nourishes dry and parched skin;

  • Minimizes blemishes, wrinkles, and fine lines;

  • Can be used on oily and sensitive skin.


Amazonian facial cream

This product combines active ingredients, oil, and water, helping to nourish and moisturize. It is also free of petroleum derivatives. Among its benefits:

  • Boosts hydration due to the water in its composition;

  • Is quickly absorbed by the skin;

  • Can be formulated with different active ingredients, such as cacay (prevents premature aging and softens expression lines) and copaiba (brightens, calms, and adds more radiance to the skin).


Which one to choose?


  • Dry skin: it is possible to use both together. Apply the cream first to nourish and hydrate, and then the oil to “seal” and prevent water loss.
  • Oily skin: you can alternate between using the cream and the oil.
  • Combination skin (when the T-zone - forehead, nose, and chin - is oily, with enlarged pores and excessive sebum production): you can use the cream all over your face and apply the oil only to the parts that are drier or parched.
  • Sensitive skin: you can use a cream with soothing active ingredients and apply the oil once or twice a week.
