Why you should start using oils in your daily beauty routine
Are you still doubting whether you should use oils in you daily beauty routine? Are you worried about oils clogging your pores? Here are some reasons that may help decide.
Oils are completely natural
Oils are 100% natural, and if you buy premium quality oils from a trusted source, they will not have any additives, chemicals or toxins. Unlike creams and over the counter moisturizers, oils do not need preservatives or additives to maintain their quality.Oils are an effective beauty remedy
Oils have been used for thousands of years, in different parts of the world, for their healing and nourishing properties. Whether as health or beauty remedies, they have been shown as effective - otherwise, we would not still be using them thousands of years later, right?Oils prevent dehydration of the skin and hair (anti-aging)
Our cell membrane consists of lipid chains. A healthy lipid barrier prevents dehydration by helping skin retain moisture. As we age, the production of oils in our bodies decreases and the regeneration of cells slows down as well. So we should help our body regenerate by adding natural oils to our daily beauty routine.Oils do not clog your pores
Contrary to popular belief (or simply false rumors), oils do not clog pores. In fact, some oils actually help to clean the pores and remove bacteria and debris that can cause acne and blemishes. In contrast, waxes and chemicals that are commonly found in skin and hair care products do clog the pores.
Oils are nutrient rich
Oils are naturally rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. Because of their nature, oils can easily penetrate through the cell membrane (as they have the same structure) and help to nourish the skin from the inside out, delivering essential nutrients that can keep skin healthy, hydrated and glowing.Oils have anti-inflammatory properties
By balancing out the production of excess skin sebum, oils help get rid of inflammation, acne and more serious conditions like eczema, psoriasis and rosacea.
