Even though moisturizers keep the skin hydrated, healthy, and reduce signs of aging, it is no secret that many of them contain substantial amounts of petroleum by-products and synthetic chemical that can seriously harm our skin in the future. Oils, however, are made from various natural ingredients that are known to effectively prevent the evaporation of moisture while protecting the skin’s lipid barrier at the same time. These ingredients are commonly sourced from castors, sweet almonds, sunflower seeds, coconuts, avocados, apricots, and grape seeds.
