The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other anti-aging skincare: serums, night creams, facial peels, wrinkle patches and anti-aging devices we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
['This 15ml facial oil from ELEMIS centers on pumpkin seed oil and other seed extracts, positioned as an antioxidant-rich elixir that supports the appearance of natural luminosity. The brand recommends 3 to 4 drops morning and evening, massaged over the face and neck before your moisturizer goes on.', 'It is formulated for dry skin but ELEMIS markets it as suitable for oily, dry, and mature skin types alike, with omega-rich nourishment meant to support moisture retention without a heavy, greasy finish. The rose scent adds a spa-like feel to the routine, though it will not suit anyone avoiding fragrance.', 'At $72 for 15ml, this is one of the pricier oils in the lineup, but the numbers back it up: a 4.6 rating from 2,273 reviews and roughly 50,000 units bought in the past month point to a product with real staying power among repeat buyers.']
Pros
- 4.6 rating across 2,273 reviews shows consistent buyer satisfaction
- About 50,000 units bought last month, an unusually high demand signal
- Lightweight, non-greasy formula that layers well under moisturizer
- Pumpkin seed oil and seed extracts offer omega-rich nourishment
- Simple 3 to 4 drop routine that is easy to fit into AM and PM skincare
Cons
- $72 for 15ml is expensive relative to other oils in this category
- Rose scent means it is not fragrance-free
- Small 15ml bottle may require reordering every few months with daily use
Performance notes
The core actives here are pumpkin seed oil and other seed extracts, both natural sources of fatty acids and antioxidants. These work primarily as moisture-retention and skin-conditioning agents rather than exfoliants, so the visible effect is more about a smoother, more radiant look over time than a fast, dramatic change.
What buyers say
A 4.6 average across 2,273 reviews is a strong result for a premium facial oil, and the roughly 50,000 units bought in the last month suggests this is a genuine bestseller rather than a niche pick. That combination of high rating and high volume is one of the more reassuring buyer signals in this category.

Frequently asked questions
Is ELEMIS Superfood Facial Oil good for oily skin?
ELEMIS markets this oil as suitable for oily, dry, and mature skin types, though it is formulated with dry skin in mind. Because it is lightweight and non-greasy, many oily-skin users apply it sparingly, but anyone very prone to breakouts may want to patch test first.
How many drops should I use?
The brand recommends 3 to 4 drops, applied morning and evening after cleansing and massaged over the face and neck before moisturizer. That is a fairly generous per-use amount, so plan on going through the 15ml bottle at a steady pace with twice-daily use.
Does it have a strong scent?
Yes, it is scented with rose, which gives the application a light, spa-like aroma. If you are sensitive to fragrance or prefer completely unscented skincare, this may not be the right fit.
