The Best Skin Tightening Products – You Can’t Go Without! ReView

Facial Treatment Oils have been around for a very long time, though not usually associated with The Best Skin Tightening Products! These are the little-known secrets to firm skin!

The Bare Truth About Natural Healing Oils

Skin tightening creams have been around for a long time, each claiming and delivering their many promises, or mostly so. Facial treatment oils, sometimes called “natural healing oils”, are usually not associated with skin tightening products as the connotation of the word “oil” itself is of a slippery non-absorbant, even “slimy” constitution.  And in many cases, that would be right.

But, there is a big BUT in this!  Several natural healing oils actually help restore the moisture to your face, make it supple, soft and actually tighten up the skin pores.  In fact, many of these oils are used as major ingredients in some of skin care’s best skin tightening products! Just that with their long and latin dermatological/scientific names you would not know them were you to read the label, unless you either are in “the know” of these terms, or the label advertises it clearly.

Usually, cosmetic companies will avoid mentioning too much about oils so to avoid the first connotation of pore-clogging, non-absorbing slimy lotioning cream – that would put off the majority of its clientele!

Some Historical Facts About Natural Healing Oils

Natural Healing Oils have bee around for thousands of years. Yes! without any fancy laboratories or fancy packaging. Simply, they were used in various cultures as the basis for skin care.

Down Under, (Australia), aboriginal tribes used emu oil as a moisturizer for an almost-inconceivable length of time—more than 40,000 years!

In Egypt, it was discovered from many burial sites and hieroglyphics, that ancient Egyptians used a big variety of plant-based oils on the skin, including castor, olive, and sesame oils (Cleopatra was reputed to favor the latter two).

Though people rarely lived to pass the age of 40 in those days, damage from the sun and sand was still undesirable. Such woes may have been treated with fenugreek and moringa oils, which boost circulation and deliver antioxidants. In ancient Egypt, oils were so valuable that records suggest they may have been used as a form of payment for labor!

In today’s cosmetic world there are some wonderful & natural based products that give us exactly what the ancients used…but even better! Here is a short ReView on three of the BEST!
