5 Truths That Prove How Effective Face Oils Are Compared To Creams
A comparison like this might seem a little preposterous, considering how both creams and oils are unique and beneficial in their own ways. But when it comes to thinning, aging skin, you’ll be surprised to learn which is better for you.
You would think creams are more hydrating as they have ‘aqua’ in them, so they’d be the obvious choice for ‘dry’ skin. And yes, they are hydrating as they draw water into your skin. But the presence of ‘aqua’ means massive use of preservatives and stabilizers that dilute the ingredients that actually yield results. And in most cases, preservatives mean bad chemicals, that aging, thinning skin should avoid!
What thinning aging skin truly needs is intense, skin-deep moisture. Moisture deep and intense enough to tame all dry skin woes.
Which is why, when it comes to dry, thin aging skin, oils are a real game-changer. As we age, it is the decreased production of natural oils in your skin that dries it up – making it super flaky and appear wrinkled. Oils are not foreign to your skin, the natural and innate process of oil formulation in the body makes the topical application of an oil a very smart thing to do to keep it moisturized and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Because, like we said earlier, with age there is a decreased production of natural oils in the skin, and what we need to do is add those oils back.
So, apart from the presence of rich & essential fatty acids and antioxidants that make oils such a healthy and effective choice for a potent skin moisturizer, here are
5 Reasons Why Oils Are A Better Friend To Your Skin Than Creams And Lotions
Sure, we understand moisturization is extremely important for the upkeep of the health of thinning skin, and oils seem like a smarter choice due to the absence of heavy chemicals, but what exactly makes oils a better choice?
Well, since the production of natural oils is an innate process of the body, oils are quickly absorbed into the top layers of the epidermis, which is extremely crucial for aging, thinning skin. This way, oils help re-introduce lost moisture in the skin!
“But there are face creams that are oil based, do they not support the skin’s lipid barrier?”, you might wonder.
These face creams contain only a small portion of oil in them, which is nowhere near to what our skin requires.
Also, oils are lipophilic in nature which means that they are attracted to fats! This property allows the oil to pass through our skin and fat layers much more easily than creams. Molecules of oils are smaller than those of creams, which also aid in deeper penetration into the skin. So, for deep moisturization that truly nourishes and enriches your skin, oils are the way to go!
Though most creams and lotions carry wax to form a barrier on the skin’s surface that would help retain moisture in the skin, it ends up clogging your pores instead. Heavy and occlusive wax layers can have a comedogenic effect, meaning they have the potential to clog pores. When pores are blocked, it becomes difficult for the skin to naturally shed dead skin cells, leading to the formation of bumps and milia.
Oils don’t contain wax. Oils get absorbed directly into the top layer of the skin, making them an instant improver of the lipid barrier function. And a healthy lipid barrier prevents dehydration by helping skin retain moisture. Oils do all of this without clogging pores!
Creams and lotions are water-based. They contain water for hydration. But water-based creams and lotions often require preservatives to prevent the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and molds. The presence of water in a formulation creates an environment conducive to microbial growth, and without preservatives, these products could become a breeding ground for harmful pathogens.
These preservatives lessen the concentration of the ingredients that’d actually help you with your skin and show positive results.
So, not only do you end up exposing your skin to chemicals and preservatives, but you also end up using creams that couldn’t possibly yield you desired results.
Oils, especially if they are meticulously COOKED Ayurvedic oils, contain perfectly proportioned amounts of herbs that ensure your skin is introduced to healthy, good-for-you herbs, without any preservatives or chemicals and you get the desired results in the healthiest way possible!
Also, oils are natural preservatives! Because they’re not super reactive, oils are not subject to spoilage or oxidation like water is. So, no extra added preservatives are needed to keep oils from going bad and they can be natural!
Oils provide a richer & thicker layer of moisturization as compared to creams, without feeling greasy. Pure oils are composed mainly of lipids (fats), which closely resemble the skin's natural sebum. The outermost layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum, is composed of lipids, including ceramides, fatty acids, and cholesterol. This lipid barrier plays a crucial role in maintaining skin hydration, protecting against environmental factors, and preventing water loss.
And oils, due to their specific composition, can closely resemble the lipids found in the skin! This allows oils to be easily absorbed into the skin, providing deep hydration and moisturization. And despite their richness, many natural oils have a lightweight and non-greasy feel. Oils that closely match the skin's natural lipids are absorbed well, leaving the skin feeling nourished without a heavy or sticky residue.
Authentic Ayurvedic polyherbal oils are targeted oils, made to fight skin troubles in the healthiest, most holistic way possible. They’re made by accurately following the prescribed methods of cooking these herbs together. Everything from the temperature at which these oils should be cooked to which herbs should be added when in the formulation – all is present and prescribed in the scriptures of Ayurveda – the 5000-year-old ‘Science of Life’!
When these prescriptions are followed to the T, you get benefits ranging from enriched and even-toned skin to reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines!
On this note, let’s introduce you to the perfect Ayurvedic polyherbal oil to take care of your thin, aging skin!

While oils alone are a great start, a better way to get even more targeted benefits for your skin and make it more specific to your unique Dosha is by cooking it with herbs and spices.
While natural skincare or even oils (almond, castor, argan etc) alone are a great start, a better way to get even more targeted benefits for your skin and to get it back to a healthy looking glow is by cooking it with herbs and spices.
Some of the best Ayurvedic ingredients specifically for dull, dry, and aging skin are:
BLACK GRAM
Also known as an ‘uber nourisher’ in ancient Ayurvedic texts, Black Gram is an extremely potent moisturizing and unctuous ingredient for an Ayurvedic oil that intensely moisturizes the skin and gives it a plump and supple look.
Although Black Gram found its fame as a staple food in South-East Asia and the Middle East, Ayurveda has known of its powers to deeply nourish skin, for centuries.
The oil derived from this nutritious kitchen-ingredient is known to promote youthful, firm and tight looking skin, and manage the appearance of sagginess and crepiness. Its intense moisturizing and nourishing powers, along with its smooth, non-sticky and non-greasy texture when added to an oil are what make it a suitable ingredient for any skincare – be that for the face or for the body!
SESAME OIL
The rich protein and zinc in sesame seed oil are just what your skin needs to feel moisturized and smooth.
Derived from the seeds of the flowering Sesame plant, Sesame seed oil has vitamin A and E which improve the look of skin’s texture and give it a youthful glow.
Not only that, like other carrier oils, Sesame seed oil is incredibly versatile, making it a delightful addition to one’s skin care routine
RICE BRAN
Extracted from the inner husk of rice, Rice Bran Oil contains Vitamins B and E which not just hydrate the skin and keep it moisturized, but also make the skin look supple, glowy and ‘bouncy’.
The benefits don’t stop there! It also contains squalene which is known to impart a young and smooth-looking, fresh glow to the skin.
NUTSEDGE
No discourse on herbs that manage saggy skin can be complete without mentioning Nutsedge.
A strong youthfulness promoter that helps soften the look of UV induced aging, Nutgrass has been in use in ancient Ayurvedic skincare for centuries because of its richness in fatty acids, vitamins and flavonoids.
It is known that the powdered extracts of the root of this grass are highly potent when it comes to reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and crepiness.
The cooling nature of this grass makes it a fine skincare ingredient for extremely dry skin that may cause further irritation. It is also known for supporting the skin’s barrier and promoting skin’s radiance and brightness.

"This product is fabulous!
I have very dry skin in the winter and have never found anything to completely manage this until now... my skin feels like velvet! I was very skeptical trying it as it is an oil, but it is by far the best facial product I have ever used. I also am using the Body Oil and am very pleased with its results as well. Highly recommend all"

"Youth Spring is Amazing
I LOVE this oil. I use it day and night on my face and neck. I have been using this for about two years and have noticed a difference in the way my skin looks and feels. My neck was getting creepy from not taking care of it in my younger days. The lines around my eyes and on my forehead were showing more - mostly because of aging and dryness. This oil has turned everything around!

"BEST MOISTURIZER EVER
I have tried many many many (did I mention many) moisturizers for my sensitive dry skin and winter is usually the worst. I have usually had to compromise by feeling like I have an extra layer on my face, or the smell, or I have to put it on multiple times a day or the perfumes or chemicals cause pain. This has changed my life. My skin is soft and smooth... I have not had to worry about dry skin since I started using this. I look forward to putting it on every day because it smells so good. I'm a customer for life."
