Ancient cultures in history used oil as an effective treatment for skin improvement. However, the cosmetic industry started to propagate the idea that these treatments were not beneficial for skin since 1920. Instead they started to promote the use of oil in water mixed with detergent as moisturizing treatment.

Cosmetic moisturizing lotions are made with low cost oils and water-soluble chemicals, they indeed moisturize skin but also damage the outer layer protein barrier of the skin. These lotions saturate skin with fats that hold skin from loosing water, for a while, these treatments moisturize skin for a short period of time but damage its ability to protect itself against bacteria and estranged substances. They also commit the mistake of adding already existing fatty elements in the skin.

Because of the chemicals components, most of these products retard the healing of irritated skin. They actually make the situation worse by inhibiting healthy skin repair, elevating skin inflammation and thus damaging skin.

Why does dry skin develop?

1. Damage to the skin's protective barrier that causes excessive water loss through the skin.

2. A reduction in the percentage of the dermal water holding sugars and proteins; the proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans.

Proteoglycans (PGs) are proteins linked to glucose chains called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). These GAGs are vital elements of connective tissues. They regulate the structure and control the functions of the skin.

When the proteoglycans (PGs) are renovated this action influences the production and differentiation of cells. The healing process also depends on the amount of PGs. If the amount is not enough this creates abnormal scars, and thus the PGs play an essential role in avoiding keloids and hypertrophic scars.

When the skin loses glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) the skin on the face and the body becomes flaccid. GAGs hold water and make up most of the intercellular space between collagen & elastin proteins.

The best skin treatment is one that protects skin surface and heals skin from within. While healing from the inside, the skin is provided the necessary nutrients and an environment in which natural skin repair can take place.
