8 Powerful Beauty Oils You Haven't Tried Yet

The oil of the desert date (which grows in some of Africa's driest, harshest climates) has been used in natural skin care for thousands of years. The ancient Egyptians even relied on it to anoint the skin of royalty! Desert date oil is rich in antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and vitamin E. While its moisturizing properties are well documented, it wasn't until recently that it was also recognized as a powerful antiaging treatment, too.
