Why Oils are Good for Skin Health

Oils can be incredibly beneficial for your skin health, not just for the face but for your entire body. They have become an increasingly popular remedy for a variety of skin concerns—from dryness and redness to improving your overall complexion. The list of benefits is long! But we’ll name a few here: They have Vitamin E and other fatty acids that help nourish and moisturize the skin while protecting it from environmental damage like dust and dryness. They contain antioxidants that can help fight oxidative stress as well as protect against bacteria linked to troublesome breakouts. And they have natural anti-inflammatory properties, providing relief from skin conditions such as psoriasis or eczema and soothing sunburnt areas. Gilded & Co.’s range of Face and Body Oils all contain avocado, sunflower, and grape seed oil, a wonderful and healthy combination sure to delight and soothe stressed or tired skin.

Fatty acids

Fatty acids are an important factor in keeping the skin healthy and looking its best. Studies have shown that certain types of fatty acids, such as omega-3s, help maintain a skin’s clarity, reduce wrinkles, provide protection against oxidative stress caused by UV exposure, and keep the protective barrier of our skin intact. Fatty acids also play a key role in wound healing and act as an anti-inflammatory agent, soothing flare ups associated with various forms of eczema or other inflammatory conditions.

Antioxidants

Oils contain some of the most beneficial antioxidants for a healthy complexion. Going beyond just moisturising the skin, antioxidants protect the skin from free radical damage that can result in accelerated ageing or dryness from over-exposure to the sun or other harsh elements. With regular use, nourishing oils, with their beneficial antioxidants, are also thought to slow down collagen depletion. This is why countless beauty enthusiasts continue naming natural oils as their new besties!

Anti-inflammatory properties

Oils have long been important in the world of natural skin care due to their anti-inflammatory properties. Plant and nut oils, such as avocado oil or jojoba oil are high in vitamins A, D & E, which work together harmoniously to gently soothe inflamed areas on the surface of your skin, promoting a healthy glow and soothing even the most damaged skin. In addition to its anti-inflammatory benefits for the surface of the skin, with regular use, oils can also replenish your skin with nourishing moisture, alleviating dryness that may also cause inflammation.
