The body comes from the earth as does any natural product so it stands to reason that natural products are best for it. Natural products are close to the ph level of the body so they do the best job of moisturizing the skin. Natural products also contain the elements which are found in the human body. These elements occur in the same ratio in the human body as they do in nature so natural products are best. 

If you need to use cosmetic products it only makes sense to use products which are pure and natural. Man made products are designed to give maximum profit to the manufacturer so they generally won’t give you any more of the good stuff than they absolutely have to.  Many times manufacturers will tout a natural property and its healing or restorative effects but will only use a small amount of the actual featured product. T

The human body is constantly bombarded with harmful elements and chemical compounds. These harmful chemicals are in the air that we breathe and in our food and water. They take a tremendous toll on the body over a period of time and we see their effects as we age. Whenever we breathe, eat, drink, swim, or even go outside we open ourselves up to an assault of harmful chemical compounds from all fronts. Sun, wind, and air all serve to dehydrate our skin. The ingestion of processed foods and alcohol also cause dehydration. Seeing that we subject our bodies to continuous assault from all sides we need to insure that we provide good quality protection to our skin.

Essential oils are better than man made moisturizers because they are oil based. The oil will remain on the skin or in the cells where they tend to remain for a long period of time. Water based moisturizers look good for just a little while but water will evaporate quickly. Many essential oils are so light that they do not feel heavy or greasy. They are absorbed very quickly into the skin cells where they remain in contact along with all of the good the trace elements that they contain. These elements constantly nourish they skin by giving excellent residual benefits.

Almond oil is my personal favorite oil to use as a moisturizer but vitamin E oil is also excellent in this respect. Shea butter is another wonderful natural product. If you use this product you will begin to see positive results in just a matter of a few days. Tea tree oil is an astringent which kills germs on contact. This product is so beneficial that it can also be used as a disinfectant yet it is gentle enough to be used on the skin. I use a mixture of aloe vera oil, vitamin e oil, almond oil, and black seed oil on my skin when I shave because my skin is extremely sensitive. These ingredients sooth the irritated skin and promote fast healing. They also smooth out the complexion with just a few days use.
