Ozonated Oils For Autumn Skin Protection

Autumn can be quite a shock to your skin as the temperature rapidly drops and the wet and windy season sets in.

So it is absolutely imperative that your skin receives some extra care and protection now to shield it from the dryness and chapping that can so easily develop over the coming months.

Yet to achieve this, you don’t have to spend a fortune this autumn on all those over-priced brand name skincare products out in the shops. You can use the ozonated oils to care and protect your skin naturally, and save you money!

Face facts

Inexpensive ozonated oils can be used on the hands, feet, body, and face to provide highly effective moisturising and skin softening benefits throughout the year. Certain ozonated oils offer excellent protection against harsh weather conditions as well. It’s just a shame that many people are reluctant to use ozonated oils on their face because they believe that they will make a greasy, oily complexion even worse. However, this is not necessarily the case – unless you use too much of course.

Oily skin is usually caused by the over-production of sebum which is the skins natural lubricant, and this overproduction can often be the body’s response to external aggressors. These aggressive assailants may be found in alkaline soaps, or caused by dietary deficiencies, and often the weather which can launch an assault on the defensive layer of your skin, wreaking havoc.

The science bit

On the surface of the skin is a layer called the hydrolipidic film, and this protective layer is vital to the health of your skin. This layer retains moisture and is actually the first line of defence against any invading bacteria. Also known as the acid mantle, this layer consists of water, sebum, and a colony of friendly micro-bacteria that works to protect the skin and maintain the vital moisture your skin needs to remain soft and youthful.

The gentle application and massaging with the ozonated oils can help to support the natural pH of this crucial layer and bring things back into balance. When it comes to soft and supple skin, the importance of this protective barrier cannot be over-stated, and this is why many ozonated oils can be so beneficial for your skin, no matter what its ‘type’.

Some ozonated oils contain natural moisturising nutrients that actually resemble or mimic those found in the hydrolipidic layer of the skin, which makes them absolutely invaluable in your daily skincare regimen. Other ozonated oils are rich in poly-unsaturated fatty acids, including linoleic acid, Omega 6, and natural tocopherols, which also deliver a wide range of skin benefits.

Nourishing and protective ozonated oils

Palmitoleic acid is an essential fatty acid found in sebum, and there are very few plant materials that contain this most precious skin-nourishing ingredient. However, several ozonated oils do contain this vital skin-nutrient. Sweet almond ozonated oil typically contains a massive 20% of palmitoleic acid, making this an ideal ozonated oil to keep your skin protected during the autumn and winter months. Evening ozonated olive oils also contain valuable levels of this protective and nourishing constituent, together with many other essential fatty acids that provide deep moisturising and nourishing qualities for your skin.

Hemp seed ozonated oil for Autumn!

Hemp seed ozonated oil is the very finest choice for autumn and winter skin care, since it’s rich in proteins that normalises the production of sebum, tightens skin, and improves its elasticity. The rich, complex and unique chemical composition of hemp seed ozonated oil deeply nourishes the skin, helping to soften wrinkles and protect against the damaging effects of the weather and premature aging. This is why beauty experts refer to it as ‘liquid gold’!

Grapeseed ozonated oil also protects your skin from the harsh autumn weather and is a surprisingly non-greasy, highly emollient oil that moisturises and conditions without leaving your skin feeling like an oil slick. Other grapeseed ozonated oil benefits include its ability to unclog blocked pores on the face by dissolving the accumulated debris that collects there.

Grapeseed ozonated oil is a great overnight treatment because it is a natural antioxidant with excellent emollient properties. Even better, it is also a powerful skin cell regenerator that can help to soften fine lines and wrinkles. Evening grapeseed ozonated oils are excellent for relieving sensitive, red and irritated skin caused by adverse weather conditions.

When to apply ozonated oils

You can use your ozonated oils in the morning or evening, or really at any time that suits you. Only a small amount of oil is required, but you must use it regularly to obtain the maximum results, since it can take up to 30 days for a new layer of skin to grow during cellular renewal. A little and often is the best approach to keeping your skin smooth, soft and radiant when using ozonated oils.

After cleansing your skin, gently massage a few drops onto the face and neck area twice a day during the colder, windy weather and your skin will soon show the benefits. Don’t forget your legs need protection too since they are often the first to feel and show the effects of wind and cold.
