Finding the right facial oil can be a turning point for your skin care routine as you move through your 60s and beyond. During this life stage, oil production naturally slows down, leading to a thinner skin barrier that may feel drier or appear more fragile than it once did.
High-quality organic facial oils are unique because they mirror the skin's natural sebum, allowing them to provide intense nourishment without feeling heavy. We have been pioneering organic beauty since 1997, creating targeted formulas that support the specific needs of mature, evolving skin.

What makes a good facial oil for mature skin?
A superior oil for mature skin should focus on more than just basic surface moisture. As collagen levels decrease, a well-formulated facial oil for over 60s should contain active botanicals that encourage skin firmness and support the skin’s structural integrity.
Look for oils rich in Omega-3 and 6 fatty acids, such as Rosehip and Pomegranate, which help to support the skin barrier. As well as nourishing the skin, plant oils work to "seal in" hydration from your moisturiser, preventing the trans-epidermal water loss that often leads to a dull or papery skin texture.
Why choose Green People for your facial oil?
We believe that mature skin deserves the purest ingredients, which is why our facial oils are formulated with a high percentage of organic plant actives.
Our commitment to organic standards means that you can trust our ingredients to be carefully chosen and responsibly grown. Many of our formulas are also dermatologically tested, ensuring they are kind to sensitive skin.
Best overall facial oil to boost collagen and firmness
Our recommendation for those seeking to revitalise their complexion is the Age Defy+ Collagen Boost Face Oil Elixir. This sophisticated blend is Organic Food Federation certified and focusses specifically on reviving the skin’s natural bounce using an elite mix of 11 super-seed oils.
The star ingredient is CO₂LLAGENEER® Bio, a patented active derived from White Lupin Seeds that helps to stimulate the synthesis of high-quality collagen. This oil is remarkably light and sinks in quickly, making it a perfect base for make-up or a luxurious final step in your evening ritual.

"With age, the skin's ability to retain moisture and produce collagen naturally declines, but the right botanical oils can provide the building blocks needed for a resilient, glowing complexion. I formulated our Age Defy+ range to blend the purity of nature with the science of healthy ageing."
