Women are often busy looking for care products that can moisturize the skin and nourish it to keep it healthy and soft. However, in fact rather than looking for various skin care products that are not necessarily proven and may contain chemicals that are not safe for the skin, in fact we can take advantage of some natural oils that are good for the skin. There are at least 5 natural oils or so-called beauty oil is very good for our skin beauty.
- Argan Oil
Argan oil contains a compound called squalene that can increase the production of collagen (a protein that makes skin taut and youthful). In addition, argan also contains linoleic acid, anti-inflammatory omega-6 fatty acids and vitamin E that serves to fight free radicals and UV rays, twice as much from olive oil. Argan oil is obtained from the extraction of Argania fruit trees grown in the region of Morocco.
Argan is also best used by people with oily skin because it can control sebum levels in people with oily skin. We can use argan oil on facial skin and hair at night after washing face and shampoo. But make sure we get Argan oil is pure and original.
- Coconut Oil
Coconut oil, especially virgin coconut oil is already famous as the best natural moisturizer for facial skin and body. Coconut oil contains a chain of medium fatty acids that can seep deep into the skin down to the fat tissue under the skin. This will help repair damaged skin tissue, increase collagen production and keep skin moist.
In addition coconut oil is also anti-bacterial and anti-viral so it is suitable for various types of skin even if the sensitive. Apply coconut oil on facial and body skin after bathing. This will help dry skin become more moist, remove the skin of the feet are cracked and make skin look more shiny and elastic. Coconut oil will generally freeze like butter, so we need to melt it first when going to wear it.
- Jojoba Oil
Jojoba oil contains structures or properties that are almost similar to our skin's natural sebum oil. For it is very good to moisturize our skin, both face and body and also able to cross the fine lines on the sensitive skin, like around the eyes. Jojoba is also very well used on the skin of fingers and toes because it can repair damaged cuticles that are usually not looking beautiful and can cause irritation.
Combine pure jojoba oil with other beauty oils, such as coconut oil or olive oil, to make oil to massage the body. Or apply directly on face and body after bathing. Jojoba oil is also very well used for cleansing the face, including lifting make-up, as it can deeply cleanse into the pores without making dry skin. Jojoba oil can also mimic collagen so it can help facial skin that is oily, acne or blackheads.
- Almond Oil
Almond oil is rich in vitamin E and K are also essential fatty acids that can protect the skin from free radicals, especially pollution attacks. Almond oil has a sweet and soft aroma, and can be used to soften and moisturize the face, hands and body.
Almond oil we can use by smearing it directly on the body and face. We can also make it a good mixture of masks to moisturize the face, by mixing 1 tablespoon of almond oil with 1 egg yolk and 1 teaspoon of honey. Apply on the face that has been washed clean, let stand about 15 minutes to dry then rinse thoroughly.
- Olive Oil
Olive oil is the most common type of beauty oil and is easy to obtain. Olive oil is rich in vitamins E, B, A, D and K so it is good for the skin. Use olive oil (for beauty) instead of lotion after bathing and before bed. This will make our skin feel dull, moist and well nourished.
