First let’s talk sebum. It’s the natural oily substance that lubricates the hair and skin. Generally speaking, oilier skin types produce more and drier skin types produce less. In some more oil is produce in the “T” zone or on other parts of the face.
Sebum is good and necessary but . . .
Everyday the natural sebum (oil) on your face traps dirt, impurities and environmental pollutants.
Water alone does not dissolve this oil and cannot remove the excess. If you wash your face with Water you need soap. And soap, not matter how gentle, is soap.
Chemists call oils lipophilic, meaning that they are naturally attracted to other oils, including the excess sebum.
Oil cleansing, which has been around for centuries, is not “washing” but a natural way to cleanse facial skin of excess sebum, bacteria, dead skin cells, dirt, impurities, environmental contaminants, even makeup and other debris while toning and moisturizing your face in a single step.
After cleansing your face feels clean with a refreshed complexion and a brighter more youthful glow.
