WHY USE A FACE OIL?

What do you mean you haven’t tried a face oil yet?

There’s a reason that top skincare experts recommend a face oil. They know that it’s the secret to healthy cell renewal and a natural glow. If the idea of putting an oil on your face still makes you feel nervous then don’t be. Even for the oily skin types, there’s a face oil that can help your skin recover its natural balance and calm things down. And for more mature skin and skin that is prone to dryness then a face oil can really work wonders. Here’s why…

#1 Bolstering skin’s protective layer

One of skin’s most important is to act as effective barrier – keeping in the good stuff such as moisture and essential nutrients and protecting us from the harmful stuff as bacteria. When skin’s outer layer starts to break down the resulting water loss leaves skin feeling dry, flaky and lacklustre. Face oils work in tandem with skin’s own oils to help shore up this barrier, softening and sealing it and providing the essential nutrient it needs to stay plump and healthy

#2 Boosting cell renewal

Face oils can work wonders to keep skin looking young. Many oils, such as the Rosehip Seed we use in our Kiss the Moon face oils, are high in free-radical fighting, Vitamin A. This natural defence system for the skin cells helps fight off signs of ageing such as wrinkle and helps the cell renewal process stay productive and healthy

#3 Rebalancing skin’s natural equilibrium

We know it sounds counter-intuitive but oily skin does often benefit from a face oil. Skin naturally produces oils and lipids. They are the ‘glue’ that makes the outer layer of skin cells such an effective barrier. Skin that is over oily is a sign that these natural oil production processes have gone haywire. Skin starts pumping out more oil that it can cope with and the result is greasiness and a risk of breakouts and flare ups. The key is that the root-cause of this over production is that skin is craving oil, that’s’ why it starts pumping more and more of it out. Applying a face oil allows skin to press the pause button and return to normal. Over-production slows down then returns to balanced levels. Happy days
