Choosing beauty products can be so overwhelming. There's just so much out there. These days I try to keep things simple. I've come to the conclusion that along with a good natural cleanser and moisturiser, a high quality face oil forms the basis of a good skincare regime. I've tried many over the last two decades, during my time as a fashion and beauty editor for both ES Magazine and Time Out, but these three are my absolute favourites, the first two being fairly recent discoveries.

Björk & Berries birch recovery face oil
Swedish brand Björk & Berries' gorgeous smelling, easily-absorbed oil is packed with birch leaf extract, borage and jojoba seed oil and vitamin E. I can practically hear my skin singing with joy when I apply it. In the morning and after the gym, I use this in place of moisturiser and in the evening, I apply a few luxurious drops before putting my night cream on. An absolute treat. £44 at www.bjorkandberries.com
This incredible oil has over 32 natural skin-boosting ingredients including argan kernel oil, macadamia seed oil and cranberry extract. It's gained a bit of a cult following recently with fans including Kate Moss and I can totally see why. Used in conjunction with Lumnity morning and night supplements, this is ideal for bolstering 40-plus skin. After a few months of use, I can confirm it helps achieve that hard-to-get inner glow. £48 at www.lumnitylife.co.uk
This is one of my tried and trusted favourites. Not only does it smell glorious but it's light, easily absorbed and can be used alone or mixed with a moisturiser for a richer layer and suits all skin types. A great value beauty product. £26 at www.nealsyardremedies.com
