“Face oils help protect skin against damage from the effects of winter. For example, cold, dry winter air
and wind can dehydrate and damage your skin’s natural moisture barrier. Indoor heating or long soaks in hot tubs can also dehydrate skin and break down its protective barrier, which is why a humidifier can help counteract dryness in the air indoors. To protect and nourish our skin’s natural lipid barrier, it is important to use face oils that are rich in omega fatty acids and antioxidants, which will help keep skin balanced with a healthy-looking texture and glow. Skin needs replenishing ingredients like oils and lipids to reinforce the skin barrier and protect us from external aggressors like wind, cold, heat, and dryness.” — Mila Moursi, celebrity aesthetician
