The speaker, Julia, talks about how to properly use facial oils. She emphasizes that oil should not replace moisturizer, but rather be used in addition to it. She recommends using universal oils such as almond, peach kernel, apricot kernel, argan, and jojoba oil. For dry or age-dehydrated skin, she suggests using wheat germ oil, avocado oil, or shea butter.
Julia advises using oil in moderation, 5-7 drops at a time, and applying it to steamed skin or after moisturizing. She warns against overusing oil, as it can cause a "greenhouse effect" and lead to skin problems.
She also emphasizes the importance of storing oil in a cool, dark place and not mixing oils without understanding their molecular structure. Julia advises beginners to start with simple and universal oils and experiment with them before adding other oils to their routine.
