Why Natural Skincare Is Best for Your Skin – And What to Avoid

Your skin is more than just a surface – it's your body’s largest organ, absorbing up to 60% of what you apply to it. However, unfortunately we don't always treat it well by using skincare products that can damage our skin and even disrupt our body's internal balance and biology.

Many conventional skincare products are filled with synthetic chemicals, artificial fragrances, and harsh preservatives that can do more harm than good. Ingredients like parabens, phthalates, sulphates, and synthetic dyes can strip away your skin’s natural oils, disrupt your hormones, and even contribute to chronic conditions or breakouts.

We champion natural skincare in Malta and believe your skincare routine should be as clean and conscious as the food you eat. Natural skincare products made with plant-based oils, botanical extracts, and minerals are great for you since they work in harmony with your skin and are gentler, non-comedogenic, and rich in antioxidants - making them ideal for all skin types, especially sensitive skin.
