The Forgotten Heroes of Skincare

The Forgotten Heroes of Skincare

Somewhere along the way, we forgot what works.
We traded olive oil’s silky cushion for lab-made silicone. We swapped glycerine’s quiet persistence for synthetic humectants. We chose perfume over plant.
The truth? The simplest ingredients often work the hardest.
Olive oil softens and shields. Glycerine binds water to the skin. Essential oils scent with subtlety, not force.
These are not trends. They are timeless tools — and they deserve the spotlight again.

Other ways to embrace natural care:

  • Choose skincare with short, purposeful ingredient lists.

  • Avoid artificial fragrances if you have sensitive skin.

  • Learn to read product labels — look for plant-based oils and humectants.

  • Pair topical care with nutrient-rich foods like avocado, berries, and leafy greens.
