Four inexpensive skin oils for Moisturizing the face

Are you paying too much for skin moisturizers and anti-aging serums? While it’s tempting to buy into the glossy ads promising softer, younger looking skin, chances are the product won’t live up to its promises. The best skin moisturizers are often the simplest and most natural. Surprisingly, common oils you already have in your kitchen cabinet can provide excellent moisturizing properties at a very low cost. Here are four of the best skin oils for keeping skin soft and moist. These moisturizers will cost a lot less than what you find at the cosmetic counter.
 
Best Skin Oils: Coconut Oil
Coconut oil has long been used as a moisturizer in the tropics and is now being recognized worldwide for its moisturizing and skin softening properties. A study published in the journal Dermatitis showed that coconut oil was as effective as mineral oil for treating dry, rough, scaly skin. Although mineral oil has superior moisturizing properties, it’s derived from petroleum and can clog the pores. Coconut oil provides a safe and effective non-petroleum based alternative to mineral oil moisturizers.
 
Best Skin Oils: Pomegranate Seed Oil
Is there any end to the wonders of the pomegranate fruit? A recent study showed that antioxidant-rich pomegranate seed oil stimulates skin cells known as keratinocytes which help to regenerate the outer layer of the skin, the epidermis. This could play a role in preventing wrinkles and skin aging. It’s also a good overall moisturizer for dry skin. Pomegranate seed oil is now available in some health food stores and from online vitamin suppliers at a reasonable price.
 
Best Skin Oils: Almond Oil
Almond oil isn’t just for cooking anymore. This light oil is rich in essential fatty acids and has good moisturizing properties. It’s often used as a carrier oil for the preparation of massage oils and skin lotions due to its skin softening benefits. A study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology showed that almond oil applied to the skin of mice protected them against ultraviolet-induced light damage. If this is replicated in humans, almond could offer significant anti-aging skin benefits.
 
Best Skin Oils: Olive Oil
Olive oil has strong anti-inflammatory properties due to its high concentration of polyphenols and a substance known as oleocanthal. Inflammation is thought to play an important role in skin aging which olive oil may help to prevent. A Japanese study showed that extra virgin olive oil protects against skin cancer induced by ultraviolet light, at least in rats. No wonder so many commercial moisturizing products are olive oil based. There’s no need to buy the more expensive products when you have a bottle of extra virgin olive oil in your kitchen.
 
Keep in mind that some oils may be too heavy for certain skin types. If you have oily skin, use one of the lighter oils such as almond and only use it on the drier areas of your face and body to avoid breakouts. Enjoy using these inexpensive oils to moisturize your skin.
