Natural vs. conventional skincare

Should you consider switching to natural cosmetic products, keep in mind that the skin usually needs 3-4 weeks to regenerate. Firstly, the skin loses water in response to the missing artificial film of conventional cosmetics. At the same time, it lacks enough moisture-retaining substances of its own, causing dry and irritated skin, so you might end up thinking that natural skincare is not the right choice for you. In fact, this is the naked truth covered by conventional cosmetics.

It takes nearly 4 weeks for the skin’s barrier layer, which protects the skin from external factors and transdermal water loss, to regenerate. Natural oils effectively support this process. Their lipid components regenerate the protective structures in the epidermis leading to desired moisture retention. Further to that, the increased moisture level triggers enzymatic processes, which activate the synthesis of other moisture-retaining substances. The result is visibly improved skin condition within a few weeks. Indeed, this is the fundamental goal of high-quality natural cosmetics - healthy skin.

For the reasons stated above, you’d better get familiar with these details before going for natural skincare products. Otherwise, you are very likely to misjudge the real cause for possible initial skin deterioration.

Luckily, not all of us react with symptoms such as dryness or itchiness. Or at least they do not last for weeks. The majority of cases responds with a slight, superficial scaling of the skin in the T-zone of the face (forehead, nose, chin), lasting for 3-4 days.

Natural skincare is and will always be the better choice for beautiful and healthy skin!
