The Best Natural Oils for Your Face and Body

Natural oils, such as coconut oil, Shea butter, and olive oil, have been used for skin care and hair care for centuries. And the natural benefits continue to be touted for various moisturizing, protective, and antibacterial qualities. these basic substances have often been overlooked.

Many oils are claimed to be beneficial for the skin. But which ones are most effective for improving skin health and quality? Whether you’re interested in moisturizing, protecting, or cleansing your skin, oils could be the key to enhancing your skincare routine.

Each type of oil has its own benefits and may affect your skin in different ways. At Savage Soaps, we focus on creating the most natural skincare products, so we look for oils that work best for all skin types. Here we’ve created a resource of the best natural oils for your face to help find one that suits your skin type and needs.

Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is one of the best natural oils for your face because it has many benefits for the skin. It is rich in medium-chain fatty acids and has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. The fatty acids help moisturize dry skin and prevent premature signs of aging. The oil is also shown to reduce acne due to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.

Coconut oil can be used in many different ways to benefit your skin. We get our coconut oil through sustainable harvesting methods and it creates the luxurious lather in our Savage soaps line.

Olive Oil

Olive oil is made by pressing olive fruits and extracting their oil. This kitchen staple is one of the best natural oils for your face because it contains vitamins A, D, E, and K, antioxidants, and squalane. It hydrates dry skin, fights free radical damage, and slows skin aging.

Olive oil stands out from other plant-based oils due to its potential ability to fight cancer. In one study, mice that had olive oil applied to their skin experienced lower rates of tumors caused by ultraviolet rays. While most people benefit from olive oil’s emollient and protective properties, those with super sensitive skin may need to test this oil as it can cause allergies in some people.

Shea Butter

Although not exactly an oil, shea butter melts on contact with your skin. This fat is extracted from the nuts of the shea tree, which are native to West Africa. Shea butter makes our list of good oils for your face because it has significant levels of vitamins A, E, and F which help relieve skin inflammation, and reduces the appearance of scars and wrinkles.

Shea butter stands out from other plant-based oils due to its possession of triterpenes. These naturally occurring chemical compounds inhibit the destruction of collagen fibers, keeping your skin young and firm for as long as possible. Formulated with organic shea butter, our Lizard Queen soap helps super dry skin issues and the inclusion of shea butter also helps protect the structural integrity of your skin.
