Non-greasy creams based on something other than plant mucilage generally contain ingredients that block the pores. The skin suffers and loses its smoothness if the treatment continues for some time. Oiling the skin, especially after a bath and washing with soap, is to be recommended, since soap removes the natural oil produced by the sebaceous glands. A good oil that stimulates the skin is indispensable in winter and whenever engaging in water sports.

It is imperative that the perfumes added to skin oils and creams be only from natural essential oils. Perfumes derived from chemicals can harm the skin. Also remember that the skin derives no benefit whatsoever from being covered with thick layers of all kinds of cosmetics. Healthy skin only needs a little help when greater demands are put on it through exposure to the sun, water, cold and wind. The wisdom expressed in the saying ‘You can have too much of a good thing’ applies to the care of your skin and cosmetics too.
