A frequently asked question is, "How do I find the right face serum and/or face oil for my skin type?" I have a great passion for the world of natural cosmetics and the amazing results that natural, high quality products can achieve on the skin. ➔ sustainable cosmetics
Understanding the purpose and benefits of serums and oils and how to optimise their functionality is unique to your skincare needs. With our huge selection of natural skincare products, you'll find the perfect addition to your current skincare regime.
What are serums?
Behind the skin-softening texture of a serum lies a highly concentrated wealth of amino acids, vitamins and hyaluronic acid. Serums are targeted, low molecular weight treatments that penetrate deep into the skin to improve its health. They can help treat and repair skin problems such as ageing, environmental damage, blemishes, dull skin, hyperpigmentation or loss of firmness. Serums optimise hydration and reduce sensitivity. ➔ Amala
Here is one of my favourite products:
- AMALA Blemish Clearing Purify + Prevent Serum: A dual action serum - it treats blemishes, unclogs pores and provides lasting results and a clear complexion.
What are oils?
Oils are usually ingredients with a larger molecular weight. They penetrate the upper layers of the skin and provide your skin with lipids to deliver moisture and nutrients. The most important property of lipids in skincare is their ability to restore and replenish the skin's moisture barrier, smooth skin texture and balance skin causes that can lead to dryness, such as environmental factors or harsh products.
Some oils also contain active ingredients for skin treatment and are used to replace or supplement moisturisers. Oils strengthen, protect and keep your skin healthy. ➔ The Glow
Here is one of our top products:
- THE GLOW Everything Oil: A rich multifunctional for daily use on face, body and hair. It gives you a rosy, radiant complexion and silky hair.
The best of both worlds
The good news is that it doesn't have to be either or. Both serums and oils have a place in your beauty routine. Hybrid products give you the benefits of both: the moisture of oils and the concentrated, active ingredients of serums. For example, THE ORGANIC PHARMACY Antioxidant Face Serum is a powerful anti-ageing product with an oil-based nutrient complex that repairs, clarifies, smoothes and hydrates the skin.
Conclusion
Both serums and oils play an important role in your skincare routine. While serums target skin problems and improve the health of your skin with their concentrated active ingredients, oils provide the skin with valuable lipids that moisturise and strengthen the natural protective barrier.
By choosing the right ENVI Naturals products to suit your individual needs, you can achieve the best results. Give your skin the care it deserves!
