I have this really nice hair oil and I was thinking of using it on my face as a moisterizer.
Te ingredients are:
olive oil
avocado oil
castor oil
sesame oil
jojoba oil
tea tree oil
black seed oil
exctracts of chamomile
hops
balm mint
horse tail
yarrow
methylparaben
propylparaben
fragrance
Is it safe to use on my face? |

You can check out using Argan Oil//Morroccon oil for hair its a huge hit on youtube on almost everywhere. I've also read using it on your face as well. For your list these may be clogging:
olive oil (Clogging?)
avocado oil (Clog for sure)
jojoba oil (works for some ppl it may break you out)
tea tree oil (Can irritate and dry your skin out)
methylparaben (irritant)
propylparaben (irritant)
fragrance (Possiblilty this can be an irritant |

I personally would not use this on my face. This blend would definitely break me out.
It could contain too high a % of Tea tree for your face, among so other possible irritants like mint and fragrance.
Also if castor is #3 on the list its probably too high of a % to use on your face. Castor is very emollient and is good in small % but can be a disaster if its at a high %. |

I find this website to be very helpful in determining what will clog pores.
