Why Oils Are Actually Good for Your Skin

By

In the past, you may have been reluctant to put any type of oils on your skin for fear they would leave it greasy and unable to breathe. Let’s put some of those old myths to rest if you haven’t already! Oils in skincare are not a bad thing.

Certain oils in carefully crafted skincare products can actually be really good for all skin states because they are packed with nutrients and antioxidants that nourish and protect your skin. Your skin already makes oil. If it makes too much oil, your skin looks greasy and if it makes too little oil, it may feel dry. Oils that help balance your natural sebum productions are ideal. Here are a few ways oils are beneficial for your skin.

 Oils Help Dry Skin Stay Moisturized

As you switch to summer, you may notice that your skin feels drier and flakier, like the moisture is getting sucked out of your skin. If water is escaping your skin, a great body oil or facial oil that’s designed to leave your skin moisturized, soft, and smooth (not greasy) is a great addition to your lineup of products. If you find that a typical lotion or cream isn’t cutting it for you, seek out a face oil (and separate body oil) to help lock in moisture and nourish dry skin.

 Natural Pro Tip: Try dry brushing face and body skin to gently exfoliate and visibly improve the appearance of your skin. Dry brushing with a gentle-bristled dry brush is an easy ritual to perform after facial oil cleansing.

 Oils May Help Balance Out Oily, Acne-Prone Skin

People with oily skin once winced at the idea of putting oil on top of skin that already produces excess sebum. But because of the scientific principle of “like” dissolves “like,” oil face cleansers are great at dissolving impurities and clearing away oil-based makeup and sunscreen without stripping your skin and forcing it to overproduce sebum as a result.

Natural Pro Tip: To keep your natural moisture barrier healthy, try the age-old method of using a cleansing oil made specifically for those with oily or acne-prone skin states. Be sure to give your skin a gentle massage with your fingers while applying the cleansing oil to ensure grime comes off effectively.

 Oils Help Calm Down Irritated Skin

Many plant-based (and animal-based) oils have anti-inflammatory properties, which are ideal for tending to inflamed or irritated skin. Some oils high in anti-inflammatory properties include blue tansy, lemongrass, geranium, and tea tree oils. A toning spray with organic tea tree oil and lavender oil may help soothe sensitive skin, for example.

 Natural Pro Tip: If your underarms are also sensitive to irritation, consider trying a natural deodorant with tea tree oil and beeswax, both rich in anti-inflammatories. Oils from nature can truly support your skin from head to toe.
