How much: 2-3 drops (oily skin: 2, dry skin: 3-4). Less is more.

🔬 Turmeric Science: How Face Oil Works
Occlusive sealing action: Face oil creates a protective barrier that locks in all the water-based products underneath (toner, serum, moisturizer). This is why oil must ALWAYS be the final step — applying water-based products over oil is ineffective because the oil barrier prevents penetration.
Why warming matters: Cold oil has a higher viscosity (thicker consistency) that sits on skin rather than absorbing. Warming between palms for 3-5 seconds reduces viscosity, allowing the oil to spread evenly and penetrate into the outer skin layers where curcumin can deliver its anti-inflammatory and brightening benefits.
Night vs. morning: During sleep, skin enters repair mode with increased cell turnover and collagen production. Applying oil at night supports this natural process by providing concentrated nutrients when skin is most receptive. Learn more about maximizing your oil application.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Cleanse Your Face
Use AMVital Turmeric Gel Cleanser or Turmeric Soap to remove all impurities. Pat completely dry — oil should be applied to dry skin, not wet.
Step 2: Apply Toner
Prep skin with AMVital Turmeric Toner for better absorption. Wait 30-60 seconds for toner to absorb. See our toner guide.
Step 3: Apply Serum
Smooth on 2-4 drops of Turmeric Serum. Wait approximately 60 seconds for complete serum absorption before oil. See our serum guide.
Step 4: Optional — Apply Moisturizer First
If using both Turmeric Cream and oil, apply cream first. Wait 2-3 minutes. Oil ALWAYS goes last — it seals everything underneath.
Step 5: Dispense 2-3 Drops of Oil ⭐
Take 2-3 drops of Turmeric Face Oil into your palms. Oily skin: 2 drops. Normal/dry skin: 3 drops. Don't over-apply — less is more with facial oils.
Step 6: Warm Between Palms (CRITICAL) ⭐
Rub oil between palms for 3-5 seconds. This crucial step warms the oil for better spreading and absorption. Cold oil sits on skin surface and absorbs poorly.
Step 7: Press Onto Face
Gently press warmed oil onto skin — forehead, cheeks, chin, and neck. Use pressing motion, not rubbing. Cover entire face and neck evenly.
Step 8: Massage with Upward Motions
Massage gently using upward circular motions for 30-60 seconds. Focus on dry areas. Avoid pulling or tugging skin. This boosts circulation for extra glow.
Step 9: Let It Absorb
Wait 2-3 minutes before applying makeup or sunscreen. Oil needs time to fully absorb into skin layers. If still greasy after 5 minutes, you used too much.
💡 Pro Tip
For lymphatic drainage benefit, massage from center of face outward toward ears, then down neck. This reduces puffiness and promotes circulation for extra glow.
Complete Layering Guide
🌙 Evening Routine (Recommended)
1. Cleanse: Turmeric Gel Cleanser or Soap

3. Treat: Turmeric Serum (wait 60 sec)
4. Moisturize (optional): Turmeric Cream (wait 2-3 min)

3. Treat: Turmeric Serum (wait 60 sec)
4. Seal: Turmeric Face Oil — use only 1-2 drops (wait 2-3 min)

⚠️ Critical Layering Rules
- Oil ALWAYS goes last: It's occlusive — seals everything underneath
- Never apply water-based products after oil: Oil barrier prevents penetration
- Wait between each layer: Rushing dramatically reduces effectiveness
- Morning SPF is mandatory: Wait 2-3 minutes after oil before applying SPF
How Much Oil to Use
| Skin Type | Amount | Frequency | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oily Skin | 1-2 drops max | Night only | Skip morning; focus on T-zone avoidance |
| Combination | 2 drops | Nightly | Focus on dry areas; light touch on T-zone |
| Normal Skin | 2-3 drops | Nightly or 2x daily | Standard application for optimal results |
| Dry Skin | 3-4 drops | 2x daily | Can layer over cream for extra nourishment |
| Very Dry/Winter | 4-5 drops | 2x daily | Consider two light applications vs one heavy |
Amount by Usage
- Face only: 2-3 drops
- Face + neck: 3-4 drops
- Face + neck + décolletage: 4-5 drops
- Spot treatment: 1 drop on problem areas
- Foundation mix: 1 drop mixed with foundation for dewy finish
💡 Pro Tip
Less is more with facial oils. Start small and add if needed. If skin feels greasy after 5 minutes, you used too much. Perfect amount: skin feels nourished but not shiny/slick. One bottle lasts 3-4 months with nightly 2-3 drop use.
💡 Key Takeaway
For best results with AMVital Turmeric Face Oil, always use as the absolute FINAL STEP in your routine — oil seals everything underneath and creates a protective barrier. Dispense only 2-3 drops (oily skin: 2, dry skin: 3-4) — more is not better. The critical warming step: rub between palms 3-5 seconds before applying — cold oil absorbs poorly. Press and pat onto face using gentle upward circular massage motions for 30-60 seconds — never rub harshly. Wait 2-3 minutes for full absorption before makeup or SPF. Night is best when skin repairs itself; can use morning if very dry but must follow with SPF 30+. Works beautifully alone OR layered over cream for extra nourishment. Apply consistently for visible glow, improved elasticity, and balanced tone within 2-3 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use Turmeric Face Oil daily?
Yes, it's gentle enough for daily use. Apply once at night (recommended) or twice daily if you have very dry skin. Most users find nightly application provides optimal results without any greasiness.
Should I use it before or after moisturizer?
ALWAYS after moisturizer as the absolute last step. Face oil is occlusive — it seals in everything underneath. If you apply cream after oil, the cream can't penetrate. Order: serum → cream (optional) → oil (final).
Will it make my skin oily or greasy?
No, when used correctly (2-3 drops, warmed, pressed in), the lightweight formula absorbs within 2-3 minutes leaving soft glow without greasiness. If it feels greasy, you're using too much or not warming it first.
Can I mix it with foundation?
Yes! Add 1 drop to your foundation for dewy, radiant finish. This is especially great for dry skin or achieving "glass skin" look. Mix in palm before applying to face.
Is it suitable for acne-prone skin?
Yes, it's non-comedogenic and won't clog pores when used properly. Turmeric's anti-inflammatory benefits actually help calm breakouts. Start with 1-2 drops and use only at night if concerned about oiliness. See our acne and dark spots guide.
Do I need to use both cream AND oil?
Not required — choose based on dryness. Very dry skin: use both (cream first, oil second). Normal/combo skin: choose one or the other. Oily skin: usually skip oil or use minimal amount (1-2 drops at night only). Both together provides maximum nourishment.
Can I use it in the morning?
Yes, but night is better. If using in morning: (1) use only 1-2 drops, (2) wait 2-3 minutes, (3) MUST apply SPF 30+ after. Oil can interfere with makeup application, so consider mixing with foundation instead.
How long does absorption take?
Properly warmed and pressed oil absorbs within 2-3 minutes. If still greasy after 5 minutes, you used too much. Always warm between palms first — cold oil takes much longer to absorb.
Can I use it around my eyes?
Yes, but very gently. Dab lightly around orbital bone (not directly on eyelid). The oil is safe for eye area and helps with fine lines. Avoid getting oil inside eyes.
When will I see results?
Immediate: Skin feels nourished, looks glowy after first use. Week 1-2: Improved hydration, softer texture, subtle brightening. Week 2-4: More even tone, improved elasticity, radiant glow. Best results: 4-6 weeks of consistent nightly use.
How long does one bottle last?
With proper 2-3 drop nightly use, one bottle lasts approximately 3-4 months. Using too much wastes product and doesn't improve results — less is more with facial oils.
Will it stain my skin or pillowcase?
When absorbed properly (2-3 minute wait time), staining is minimal. For extra precaution, use a dedicated pillowcase for "skincare nights" or wait 5 minutes before sleeping. Any faint yellow tint on fabric washes out normally. See our staining tips.
The Bottom Line
AMVital Turmeric Face Oil is your secret weapon for glowing, nourished skin. Key to success: always use as the FINAL step in your routine (oil seals everything underneath), warm between palms for 3-5 seconds before applying, use only 2-3 drops (less is more), and press/pat gently rather than rubbing. Night application is ideal when skin repairs itself; morning use is fine for dry skin but requires SPF 30+ after.
Combine with toner, serum, and optionally cream for complete results. With consistent nightly use, expect visible glow and improved skin texture within 2-3 weeks.
