Oil Is Our Future

OIL IS OUR FUTURE

What is oil? Why do we, at SKINNED, prefer it? What are the benefits vs lotions?

All valid questions and we're here to help answer some of them.. There are so many benefits to incorporating body oils into your daily routine and once you do, your skin, your wallet, and the environment will thank you. Body oil is our future, so let’s talk about it!

Swapping your everyday lotion for an oil can be intimidating. We get it. Most people are afraid of the way it might make their skin feel after applying it - too slippery, slimy, leaves a residue, etc. While water based emollients are hydrating and lightweight for an immediate effect, oils are more occlusive for long term skin health, penetrating the skin barrier directly. This retains moisture better while supplying the skin with nutrients, vitamins and antioxidants.

Because oils are, well, oil based, they don’t need additives, fillers, or preservatives as they are shelf stable for at least two years on their own. This means that you won’t have to worry about wasting product, benefiting the environment as well as your bank account. The nutrients are already packed in without the additives so oils tend to be made with simpler, cleaner ingredients as opposed from their counter product, lotions. It’s a win-win.

As if it couldn’t get any better, oils have their own built in sun protection. Some natural oils can even amount to 40 SPF. Since the skin is our largest organ, everything we put on externally directly affects us internally so when we are applying things on our skin, we need to be aware of the entire ingredient list.

SKINNED Sex Appeal Oil is engineered with responsibly sourced, nutrient-dense, and organic ingredients. While your skin drinks up the base of the oils, the rest are slowly absorbed, adding a protection layer against environmental stressors, leaving your skin nourished and hydrated. This oil is filled with vitamins and minerals that will invigorate dull-looking skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Our dedication to sustainability doesn’t just stop at a longer shelf life either. We use recycled, biodegradable, and ethically sourced resources where ever we can, being FSC & PETA certified.

Remember, less is more so consider throwing out all the extra steps and sticking with something that has a longterm effect on your skin health. Body oils are our future and our SKINNED Sex Appeal Oil is your fresh start.
