The Power of Oil Cleansing

 

One of the first things we'll always chat you up about is Oil Cleansing. Its the first step to balancing the health of your skin, while also getting some harsh chemicals out of your routine. 

 

Why should I be Oil Cleansing?

Ditching your traditional (foaming) cleansers for oil is the single best first step you can take to support the health of your skin. Traditional cleansers strip your skin of its natural microbiome and oils — all things bad and good – leaving you with that tight, dry, maybe even stinging feeling skin after you wash your face. A simple and clear sign that the face wash has gone too far. 

When you dehydrate the skin and remove all the good, naturally occurring bacteria and oil that supports your skins health the likelihood of experiencing skin challenges heightens. Your stripped skin is now an environment where foreign bacteria can thrive and your skin is left to rehydrate the skin, with oil production leading to things like acne, dry/oily skin, and irritation.

Whereas an Oil Cleanser gently removes dirt, makeup, and impurities from your skin, while leaving it soft and balanced. When these nutrient dense oils lather into the skin they deeply cleanse, while creating a healthy environment for the microbiome to thrive.  And you'll be left with clean skin that is supple, healing and soft.

 

Does Oil Cleansing work for my skin type?

The wonderful thing is that Oil Cleansing is great for all skin types. The oils from the cleanser and your natural microbiome work together to provide the skin what it needs. Whether you have dry skin needing more hydration, oily skin that needs to tone down oil production, acne prone skin that needs to be calmed, or all of the above - Oil Cleansing works wonderfully for it all.  

P.S. Our Oil Cleanser easily the best makeup remover we've ever used.

 

 

 

How do I Oil Cleanse?

The steps to incorporate Oil Cleansing into your skin-care routine are exceptionally simple, though slightly different from a traditional cleanser. We'll spell it out for you!

Step One: Gently massage the oil onto your dry skin. Enjoy the moment to slow down and work into the face and neck in circular motions. 

 Step Two: Take a small amount of warm water and massage it into the oil on your face to create a milky emulsion. There won't be a change in color of the cleanser, though it will feel a bit silky.

 Step Three: After you done enjoying this experience, simply rinse and pat dry! 

This tried and true ancient technique has been practiced for centuries. Simplify your skincare routine and enjoy as you watch nature work it's magic – You'll thank us!
