The Ordinary 100% Cold-Pressed Virgin Marula Oil

Virgin Marula Oil is a lightweight facial oil made from unrefined marula seed oil. Rich in fatty acids and naturally occurring antioxidants, it helps condition the skin and leaves it feeling softer, smoother and more nourished.

If your skin feels dry, rough or lacking comfort, adding a facial oil as the final step of your routine can help support a more supple-looking complexion. This 30ml formula is simple and concentrated, making it easy to add to both morning and evening skincare routines.

What Does Virgin Marula Oil Do?

Marula oil is valued for its emollient properties and naturally occurring antioxidant compounds. Applied to the skin, it helps reduce the feeling of dryness and leaves the surface feeling smoother and more conditioned.

Why Choose Cold-Pressed Virgin Marula Oil?

The oil is cold-pressed from marula seeds and remains unrefined. This helps retain naturally occurring components of the plant oil rather than extensively processing it.

Its simple ingredient profile also makes it easy to understand: you are primarily applying marula seed oil rather than a long blend of multiple oils and active ingredients.

The formula is particularly useful for people who prefer straightforward skincare and want to add nourishment without introducing several new treatment products at once.

How to Use Virgin Marula Oil

Use a few drops as the final step of your skincare routine, after water-based serums and moisturizer.

Gently press the oil into the skin rather than rubbing aggressively.

Suggested routine

Cleanser → Hydrating serum → Treatment serum → Moisturizer → Virgin Marula Oil

You can use it in the morning or evening. If using it during the day, always finish your routine with sunscreen.

For very dry skin, a few drops can also be mixed with your moisturizer before application.

Virgin Marula Oil for Dry Skin

Dry skin often benefits from combining hydration with emollient ingredients.

Water-based products such as hyaluronic acid can add hydration, while an oil can help make the skin feel softer and more comfortable.

This makes Virgin Marula Oil a useful addition to a dry-skin routine, particularly during colder or drier weather when the skin may feel rough or tight.

If your skin is oily or combination, you can still use a facial oil, but start with only a small amount. Too much product may feel unnecessarily heavy.

Is It Suitable for Pakistan’s Climate?

Pakistan’s climate changes considerably between seasons. During hot and humid weather, many people prefer lightweight skincare and may find a facial oil more comfortable when used sparingly.

During dry winter weather, air conditioning or exposure to dry environments can make skin feel less comfortable. A few drops of marula oil can then be used over moisturizer as part of a richer evening routine.

The key is adjusting the amount rather than assuming that facial oils are only suitable for dry skin.

Can I Use It With Other The Ordinary Products?

Yes. Facial oils can generally be incorporated after water-based serums and creams.

For hydration, pair it with Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 before applying the oil.

For barrier-focused moisture, follow your serum with Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA, then apply a few drops of marula oil if additional nourishment is needed.

If you use stronger treatments such as retinoids or direct acids, introduce products gradually and avoid changing several parts of your routine at the same time.

Virgin Marula Oil for Hair

Although this product is primarily used as a facial oil, a small amount of oil can also be applied to dry hair ends if desired.

Use very little, especially on fine hair, as excess oil can make the hair appear greasy. Apply it mainly to the ends rather than the scalp.
