Liquid Gold vs. Triple Threat: How to Choose the Right Oil for Your Skin
Liquid Gold vs. Triple Threat: Which One Does Your Skin Need?
We get asked this all the time — “What’s the difference between Liquid Gold and Triple Threat?”
At first glance, they both look like rich golden oils infused with healing botanicals. And while they share similar uses — cleansing, moisturizing, and glow-giving — they’re formulated for different skin needs and seasons.
Here’s how to choose the one that suits you best (and why so many Lunah lovers use both!).
✨ Triple Threat Oil Cleanser + Serum
Rich. Restorative. Perfect for dry or mature skin.
Triple Threat is our deeply nourishing, multitasking oil — designed to cleanse, moisturize, and replenish skin that craves hydration. Its rich, silky texture makes it ideal for dry, mature, or depleted complexions that need extra love.
Botanical Breakdown:
-
Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil – Antioxidant-rich, helps smooth fine lines and restore elasticity.
-
Calendula Officinalis – Soothes inflammation and supports healing for dry, stressed skin.
-
Rosa Canina (Rose Petals) – Softens, brightens, and supports healthy cell turnover.
-
Sambucus Nigra (Elderflower) – Boosts radiance and reduces dullness.
-
Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) – Mimics your skin’s natural sebum to balance and protect.
-
Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) – Leaves the skin supple, hydrated, and smooth.
How to Use:
-
As a cleanser: Oil cleanse onto dry skin (yes, even over eye makeup!) and gently remove with a warm cloth.
-
As a serum: Press a few drops into damp skin after toning or over your water-based serums.
Best for:
Dry, mature, or moisture-deprived skin — or anyone craving a rich, cocooning oil.
A must-have through fall and winter when your skin barrier needs extra support.
🌙 Liquid Gold Beauty Oil
Lightweight. Healing. Perfect for sensitive or acne-prone skin.
Liquid Gold is our lighter, silky elixir for skin that needs balance, calm, and a touch of glow. It’s ideal for oily, acne-prone, sensitive, or reactive skin types — even those with rosacea or dermatitis. Its calming, anti-inflammatory properties make it perfect for year-round use, especially in warmer months.
Botanical Breakdown:
-
Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil – Softens, heals, and locks in hydration.
-
Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot Kernel) Oil – Rich in vitamins A & E to brighten and support repair.
-
Golden Jojoba Oil – Balances oil production and helps prevent breakouts.
-
Calendula Infusion – Soothes irritation, redness, and post-sun inflammation.
How to Use:
-
As a cleanser: Oil cleanse onto dry skin to dissolve sunscreen, dirt, and makeup. Remove with a warm cloth.
-
As a serum: Apply a few drops to damp skin after toner or water-based serums.
-
Mix it up: Combine a drop of Liquid Gold with Triple Threat for a custom texture and added benefits.
Best for:
Sensitive, acne-prone, or inflamed skin types.
A beautiful choice in spring and summer when your skin prefers something lighter.
Also safe and gentle enough for babies and all-over body use — especially for redness, dryness, or minor burns.
