It may seem counterintuitive to use an oil to cleanse the skin. But, in reality, good oils like the Sunflower oil found in our Citrus Cleansing Oil are great for the skin.
Oil-based cleansers
Sunflower Oil in particular is a natural emollient that softens and soothes. Plus, with a low comedogenic rating of 0-2, it won’t clog pores.
Sunflower oil works directly to improve the health of our skin. The natural fatty acids found in it help maintain the skin’s natural moisture barrier. Its lightweight texture allows it to penetrate the skin easily, making it great for hydration. It soothes irritated areas and works to decrease inflammation. The Vitamins E, A, and D found in Sunflower Oil keep the skin supple, help skin cells to regenerate, and work to prevent acne.
Sunflower oil is non-abrasive, and its lightweight nature allows it to penetrate and hydrate the skin without leaving it feeling greasy. Your skin will feel great to the touch, with greater moisture, firmness, and elasticity.
Sunflower Oil helps neutralize free radicals that can cause signs of premature aging, like wrinkles and fine lines. It exfoliates dead and dull skin cells, revealing a brighter, healthier looking skin tone. It doesn’t cause redness or inflammation. In fact, its anti-inflammatory properties soothe irritated skin and promote a more youthful complexion.
