The best ingredients to nourish the skin

The skin needs to be nourished and protected in the right way; only then can it always have a healthy and radiant appearance.

When talking about skin nourishment, it specifically refers to the process of trying to restore the lipid film that the skin needs, thus providing oily or buttery ingredients, ideal for dry or mature skin.

The lack of lipids and everything that nourishes the skin leads to loss of tone, the classic tight skin, and especially to expression lines.

It is usually recommended to use a moisturizing day cream, which serves only to draw water from the deeper tissues, and a nourishing night cream, which has a more intense action on our skin.

Here are some of the best ingredients to give our skin the nourishment it needs to always be radiant.

Allantoin 

Allantoin is a chemical substance found in many plants and in the urea of almost all animals, including humans. It is the product of the oxidation of uric acid. Allantoin is found in soybean seeds, coffee leaves, and horse chestnut, but in most cases, it is used as a synthetic chemical product. It is used as a keratolytic and re-epithelizing agent, similar to urea, and is therefore intended to deeply hydrate the skin and nourish it to stimulate its regeneration. It is thus useful for combating skin spots, wrinkles, and speeding up the renewal process of scars.

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid plays a key role in every case and in every season.

It is a normal component of the skin capable of binding a high number of water molecules and keeping the skin firm and hydrated. However, as we age, hyaluronic acid decreases and the skin loses its normal hydration. Included in face creams, it aims to recompact the tissues through deep hydration and nourishment, thus limiting dryness and the appearance of wrinkles. By using a cream with this particular ingredient, day after day it will be possible to achieve fuller, nourished, and plumped skin, with redefined facial contours for a visibly younger appearance.

Vegetable oils 

Vegetable oils are natural products that can be used in cosmetics for their emollient, nourishing, and soothing cosmetic properties. They are used to soften the skin, prevent dehydration, combat the action of free radicals, and, in general, to improve the appearance of the skin on the face and body.

Some of the most nourishing vegetable oils for our facial skin are avocado oil, ideal for mature skin, Argan oil, high in antioxidant substances, and jojoba oil, ideal for treating combination, oily, and impure skin.

Furthermore, as can be read in the article "The foods that are friends to our skin", the ingredients to nourish our face to make it radiant and healthy can not only be found in the products we use daily for our skincare, such as in the night cream NIGHT BIOME DETOX, but also on our table!
