Jojoba Oil
What is it?
Jojoba oil is extracted from North American plants. It is used in treating several skin conditions, such as sunburns and psoriasis. However, jojoba oil is not really oil. It is a botanical extract that is formed from liquid wax esters. Jojoba oil is chemically and structurally similar to human sebum. In fact, it almost mimics the skin structure.
Why does it work?
Jojoba oil is almost similar to the human skin structure. This allows it to dissolve or replicate naturally occurring oil. This is based on whether your skin underproduces or overproduces oil. Jojoba oil can easily even out sebum production and reduce acne and other skin conditions. It is comprised of several beneficial nutrients and minerals that works as an emollient for soothing the skin and providing all-day moisture.
How to use?
You can use a few drops of jojoba oil if you have an oily complexion. This can be done in the morning or at night for moisturizing the skin and balancing out the skin tone. Jojoba oil is a poignant alternative to body lotion for people with sensitive skin.
Coconut oil
What is it?
Coconut oil is a sweet-smelling oil that is edible in nature. It can be used in everything from smoothies to skin care products. The oil is made by pressing coconut meat for its fat. It has gained significant popularity in recent years for its therapeutic purposes.
Why does it work?
Coconut oil is full of vitamin E which allows it to be used as a traditional moisturizer. The oil is full of fatty acids that acts as a barrier of sorts on the skin. It helps keep moisture locked in. Coconut oil is naturally antibacterial and antifungal in nature. It helps in protecting the hair and skin from elements. This is especially true during the harsh winter months. The best part is that coconut oil smells delicious.
How to use?
Coconut oil has a melting point of about 75°F making it solid at room temperature. It has a similar texture to petroleum jelly when kept at room temperature. The oil melts into your skin as you apply it. Coconut oil is not recommended for people with oilier complexion.
Face Benefits of Vitamin E
Vitamin E can help you in several ways when you use it on the face:
Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation is the excess of melanin in your body which can cause dark patches on the skin. This is usually triggered by hormones. This condition is called melasma and can be treated through topical application of vitamin E.
Prevents wrinkles and aging
Vitamin E improves blood circulation being high in antioxidants. You may notice a difference in structure and firmness of your skin after using this oil.
