Why Oil-Based Moisturizers Are Best

Once you experience fine oil-based moisturizers, there is no going back.

You and your moisturizer should feel caught up in a love affair. Nothing less is good enough for your skin. -Gaelle

Nurturing Long Term Beauty

Our skin maintains a thin film of natural oils that helps retain moisture for suppleness and healthy barrier function. This essential layer of oils protects the deeper layers of dermis that generate collagen and elastin. As we age, our skin gradually produces less oil, becoming drier and more vulnerable to signs of aging.

Over time, production of collagen and elastin also declines, so skin will tend to become less firm and lines may start to appear.

Without oils to reinforce the natural barrier, our skin retains less water, gets drier, and is more prone to fine lines.

Fortunately, we can replenish our natural oils with cold-pressed oils that have similar composition and properties, making them the keystones of great anti-aging moisturizers.

The best moisturizers for dry and mature skin will work to compensate for lower oil production by replenishing the healthy oils we produce naturally. Otherwise, our skin risks showing signs of premature aging. That’s why, for mature or dry skin, the best moisturizers are oil-based.

Luscious emollient botanicals like Edelweiss Extract, Jojoba Oil and Evening Primrose Oil are just what your skin needs. Happily they are also rich in all kinds of other nutrients for the skin, promoting your skin’s smoothness and elasticity.

It’s for these reasons that we use natural oils, and a host of other highly-effective botanical ingredients, in our organic Body Crème Supérieure, Crème Supérieure and Ultra Sensitive Crème anti-aging moisturizers. Once your skin meets one of these luscious oil-based moisturizers, it will be love at first sight.

A 30-Second Facial for Radiant Skin

Our 30-second treatment with natural salts folded into rich emollients can leave your face glowing and radiant as if you’d just had a 1-hour facial.

You will see polished skin, radiant with health!

Dead cells are removed
Skin is smoothed
Pores are cleansed and disinfected
Circulation is stimulated
Breakouts are reduced

French spas have used sea salt as a natural exfoliator for centuries. They mill the coarse grains into a fine, mineral-rich powder, creating an exfoliator that is ideal for all skin types. The salts are used as a gentle face scrub to loosen dead cells that otherwise cause skin to look tired and dull. They deeply cleanse the pores, purifying and disinfecting them, while their gentle abrading action stimulates the skin’s surface circulation.

“The French use the heat of the summer sun to dry sea water, in timeless clay-lined pools, before they stone-grind the evaporated salt into a fine powder. They have known of its beauty benefits for generations, and French spas are renowned for their therapeutic use of these fine, natural salts.” How I Found The Best Exfoliant Ever

Exfoliant Supérieure combines French and Himalayan sea salts with organic emollients to moisturize while it exfoliates, leaving the face looking bright and feeling supple – as if you’ve just had a facial.

Routine exfoliation with a facial scrub like Exfoliant Supérieure is one of the best things you can do for your complexion. It is so easy to make it a habit. You will love the results.

One Cream Does It All

It might go against everything the market is telling you, but you do not need a whole shelf of moisturizing creams. You only need one good organic moisturizer. It should give all of your face the tender loving care it deserves – including the thinner, delicate skin under your eyes – as well as your neck and décolleté.

Day, Night, Eye, Face, BB, CC?

Moisturizing creams supposedly formulated for specialized purposes are great for grabbing your attention, but there’s hardly any real difference between them. A good moisturizer should protect and nourish every part of your face, including the delicate areas around the eyes.

I decided to test my cream on twenty of my fussiest friends who were using the most expensive beauty brands. This was no easy task, as they truly believed in all the hype – they thought that the more expensive the product, the better it must work… To my delight, 100% of them came back saying “this is the best moisturizer I’ve ever used.” – About Gaelle Organic

The Right Cream For You

The fact is, one cream is all you need, day or night, for all of your face, neck and décolleté – provided it is the right cream for your skin. The key is to find the right formulation for your skin, and stick to it to reap the long-term benefits.

You and your moisturizer should feel caught up in a love affair. Nothing less is good enough for your skin.” -Gaelle

How to Tell if a Moisturizer is Right for Your Skin

You can easily tell if your moisturizer is working for you. It should plump up your skin and make fine lines disappear – right away. The most obvious sign is that your skin will feel silky-smooth and look radiant. With time, these immediate results should continue to improve.

If you are not seeing these results, the solution is not to buy more products for different parts of your face, or for different times of day or night. The solution is to find a good organic moisturizer that works for you!

Judge By Your Results

Seeing is believing! If you are using the right cream for your skin, you should see results immediately, and your skin should become more and more beautiful the longer you use it. That is what we expect of the organic moisturizers we have formulated.

The Best Organic Moisturizers

The best organic moisturizers are oil-based. If you have tried organic moisturizers before, and did not see the results you wanted, it may be because the ones your tried contained alcohol as a preservative. Alcohol can be troublesome in skincare, especially on dry skin.

That’s why our organic anti-aging moisturizers – Crème Supérieure and, for extra sensitive skin, Ultra Sensitive Crème – are made from fine organic oils and botanical extracts, entirely free of alcohol. Their results speak for themselves!
