Ingredient-Conscious Beauty

Skincare shopping is not the same as it used to be. Before products were bought based on the fact that the labeling told us it does x,y, and z, we’d check the price and call it a day. Now, product ingredients are being read before any price check whatsoever. Since the start of the clean beauty movement consumers have become hyperaware and intentional about what they put on their face. 

With social media we can now watch dermatologists discuss ingredients and help us better understand how different ingredients may interact with our skin. We have more access to information than we ever have before. What people are looking for now is total transparency when it comes to what they put on their skin. 

Simply Night Face Oil is made from a carefully selected blend of essential oils and cold-pressed botanical oils. The ingredients are clearly listed on the label, so you know exactly what you’re putting on your skin, without needing a chemistry degree to make sense of them. 

What Does “Ingredient-Conscious” Really Mean?

The clean beauty trend has not just stayed a trend. It has helped many people understand that when looking at a product you cannot rely on the labeling at face value alone. There is more thought taken into account when deciding on what to put on your skin. People with sensitive skin especially have to be meticulous when looking at skincare products. 

The last thing you want when reading a label is to be confused. Transparency is the key here when looking at becoming more ingredient-conscious. While the clean beauty trend has become a broad trend not only on industries but labels, being ingredient-conscious falls under its umbrella. It’s a personal choice of looking at a brand or product and truly understanding what it consists of and knowing exactly what you’re putting on your skin. But where clean beauty is about what a brand claims, being ingredient-conscious is about what you actually take the time to check yourself. 

Why Nighttime Matters for Skincare

A night routine for your skin is just as important as the prep in the morning.

During the day, our skin is exposed to factors such as sun, pollution and the environment. Evening skincare offers an opportunity to cleanse away the day and apply products chosen for overnight use.

Without daytime essentials such as makeup and SPF, an evening skincare routine can be kept simple and become part of winding down for the night.

By now, we’ve gathered that nighttime is an ideal window for skincare. This is why being intentional with what we put on our skin matters, knowing what ingredients we’re choosing and why. At night, without factors like makeup and SPF, our skincare routine can simply become part of winding down for the evening.

Having a Look at Simply Face Night Oil

At night, choosing a product based on what’s actually in it just makes sense. It feels better knowing exactly what you’re choosing to put on your skin.

With oils it's not a matter of them all being the same, because oils are different in the way they’re blended, what goes into them, if the oils are cold-pressed or heavily processed. These small details are often missed.

Simply Face Night Oil is an example of how face oils are made differently. From how it absorbs and feels on the skin to knowing exactly what you’re putting on your skin. The oil is designed to feel hydrating, with a blend of ingredients chosen with evening skin care in mind. For an evening routine, many people prefer something lightweight that absorbs easily rather than feeling heavy on the skin.

Simply Face Night Oil features botanical oils that naturally contain a variety of fatty acids and antioxidant compounds, along with:

• Apricot kernel oil
• Jojoba seed oil 
• Grape seed oil
• Pomegranate seed oil
• Camellia seed oil
• Ylang Ylang essential oil
• Helichrysum essential oil

Now with being ingredient-conscious it’s standard to research each ingredient that goes into the product that you’re buying. When researched, you’ll find these are ingredients commonly recognized in skincare for their nourishing properties. This makes it easier to understand what you are applying and why those ingredients were selected for the formula.
