Taylor of Brooklyn reviews assert the brand works: its face oils reliably hydrate and absorb without clogging pores, though many users note a strong natural/earthy scent and a yellow-orange tint. Reviews praise travel‑secure locking bottles, lightweight non‑greasy textures, and noticeable morning glow, but call out scent intensity and small perceived bottle size as drawbacks — useful context for buyers deciding if a scented, botanical night oil fits their routine.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
I tried this at night after serums and before retinoids. It helped keep my skin moisturized and glowy. I didn't see any dramatic results, but the company sent me a sweet personalized note with my purchase which was really thoughtful. I think it's a bit spendy for me personally, but I really like the ingredients rose hip oils and sea buckthorn. It's definitely oily, but these are lighter on the skin than say, olive oil would be.

I really liked the oil, some of my other facial products are acids and harsh on my skin around my mouth so I used this oil whenever I had dry patches. I would love to be able to try some of their other products, but the price is quite high

I want to start by saying I really enjoy the branding and the packaging of this product. It made me laugh and I always need a laugh. The product itself goes on smooth and is very nourishing. I am happy I got the opportunity to try this because it is doing great things to my parched skin!

My skin has really benefitted from an addition of a regular oil at night, and I tried out this one and don't dislike it at all. I have a more favorite face oil, but that mostly comes down to personal preference around scent I think. This oil has a very natural, earthy scent, so if you have sensitive skin that is affected by fragrance, I think this could be a great choice for you! Functionally, this feels very hydrating, but still light. I will say, the packaging arrived a little messed up with these air bubbles under the label on the bottle.

I really liked this facial oil, I use it around once a week for some hydration. It’s not sticky and I use some moisturizer on top then finish w spf and I like my skin. It feels so healthy and hydrated. Also LOVED the packaging

I'm really enjoying All Day Slay. The glass packaging feels high end and the product is just as good. I love how lightweight the oil feels on my skin. It really does give a lovely glow and it has a nice light smell -- nothing too heavy in fragrance. It is still a bit too early to judge any significant differences to my skin texture, but I could definitely see myself repurchasing.

I have gotten the chance to try “Thirst Trap” for a week now and I really like it so far. I love the extra hydration. I am interested to see how my skin likes it after a few weeks. I also love the packaging, witty name and brand.

This is a great product for my nightly routine, I used this product in the night with my facial massager, it was smooth and I product sink in well without any break outs the next day. The reason I gave this a 4 star is because, the smell of this product is not to my liking so I started using this combined with some of my other night serums. I would suggest making some changes like using an additional essential oil for mild fragrance instead of parfumes.

My face tone is combination and I've been looking for a product to give me that good feeling and glow. Taylor of Brooklyn has All Day Slay and it gives me balance and protection. I love that it's fragrance free because I can use it around my eyes. All Day Slay leaves my face feeling refreshed with a beautiful glow. The combination of the oils is perfect to help heal my face .


Solid product overall. I love the packaging and the pump. I have acne prone skin and after a week of using this I have had no break outs. I use 2 pumps at night and I wake up with moisturized, glowing skin. It absorbs into my skin quite fast as well. The texture reminds me of a dry oil and smells somewhat earthy, like dried flowers or tea. Once you rub it in you don't really smell anything. I definitely recommend this for people that experience dry skin on those frosty cold nights.

The facial oil works great. It’s very thin and runny, one full pump is enough to cover the entire face. It leaves the face a bit greasy though. But I find my skin smooth and soft in the morning. I use it every other night, and I use my regular moisturizer on the remaining nights. Over all, I like it.

I must admit that at first, I wasn't too sure I'd like Thirst Trap. My very first thought when I saw the bright orange bottle was did the Vitamin C already oxidize?!! (those who use Vit C serums will understand lol). Hopefully the color is just due to one of the oils in the ingredients. I also have a small pet peeve of seeing new products not looking full, I understand that they contain the same fluid oz as advertised but that empty top layer is simply visually bothersome when purchasing a new item (yes, I'm picky). The first night I used it on top of a light moisturizer and the following morning the skin around my nose felt tight and needed a thick moisturizer. The following night I switched to a hyaluronic acid moisturizer prior to using the face oil and it turned out to be the best combination! My face is moisturized and glowy in the morning, I am thrilled and now love the product!

I was super excited to try this brand. I purchased the All Day Slay facial oil, and I love it. It gives my face a nice glow without looking greasy or sweaty. The product came in cute packaging, and even included a handwritten note, which I though was sweet!

I found my purchase experience from Taylor of Brooklyn to be very charming. From the confirmation email genuinely asking for feedback to the handwritten & personalized note included with the order, I found everything to be very sweet. I also appreciated the inexpensive and FAST shipping options. As for the Thirst Trap oil, I love the natural scent and how easily it absorbs into my skin! I apply it at night and my skin feels lovely when I wake up. And I find that one pump covers my whole face and neck so it should last a long time. My one note is that the bottle and label seem slightly cheap when you consider the price but overall I'm a fan and have already recommended this company to my friends!

I bought the thrist trap oil and it’s great. Truthfully, I threw the box out before reading the instructions, but I’ve been using it as the 3rd step in my 4 step nighttime routine - cleanse, serum, thirst trap, and squalane. I think it would work well as step 3 or 4, aka the hydrating ingredient or the seal at night. The smell is forest-y, nice, and the oil itself has a strong yellow undertone, which is actually fine for night. I am really impressed with the bottle. It locks really well. I brought it on a flight this week and had no issues with leaks. It feels reliable.

The Thirst Trap face oil has saved my skin from the overzealous furnace! I bought this oil in late Jan to deal with some real parched skin. I have been using it for about two months now. My skin is hydrated, smooth and glowing. I am a 46F, with combo skin and some fine lines. This formula doesn't make my t-zone oilier, absorbs quickly, and softens my fine lines with hydration. The best part is no clogged pores -- that is sometimes the trade off for hydration! Lovely and smart formula. The shipment came with the sweetest handwritten note too -- wishing this young company well. They are making a great product.

I've really liked using this product!! I loveeee a good serum and the thirst trap is really great! I was a bit weirded out by the smell at first but that immediately faded. I've been using this every night before I moisturize and I can tell the difference that my skin feels less dry when I wake up in the morning. I love an orange tint because it adds some color to your face which for the winter months - pleaseeee give me all the color back in my skin! I was nervous of how long this would last - but one pump goes a long way! I would repurchase this for sure!

I have drier skin so really try to moisturize well every night. The Thirst Trap oil is wonderful- soaks in beautifully, isn’t too heavy but really feels nourishing. There’s no artificial fragrance, and it smells sort of fresh, vegetal and grassy - in a good way. Love all the botanical ingredients and that it’s a woman and black - owned small business.

I am traditionally not an oil user but this has convinced me. It is a little thicker than a plain oil which I really like. It has a unique smell- not bad but I can't place it. It feels so hydrating though and when I wake up I do feel like it really soaked in. It also has a yellow/orange tint to it, which is a little weird but almost makes me look tan so that's fine! Also no one sees it as I am using at night so it''s fine. I would repurchase!!
