Discover the Secret to Beautiful Skin: Best Natural Face Moisturizers

If you’re among the countless individuals on a never ending hunt for the perfect natural skincare routine, you’re not alone. So many people want all natural skin care but they find that many products on the market simply fall short of getting the job done. Moisturizers are some of the trickiest products to get right. It’s often hard to find a natural face moisturizer that’s both good for your skin, has natural ingredients, and is good for the planet. While it may be hard, that doesn’t mean it’s impossible: enter Malie’s BotanyBeauty collection of clean skin care.

About Natural Moisturizers

The best natural face moisturizer will do more with less. There will be fewer unrecognizable ingredients and more of the good stuff. By harnessing the power of plant science and tapping into Earth’s natural resources, clean skin care companies like Malie deliver quality products that give you real results.

While all parts of a natural skin care routine matter, moisturizer is often seen as paramount. That’s because it creates a protective barrier between your skin and the rest of the elements you’re exposed to on a regular basis. Everyone’s day-to-day looks different and how you go out in the world is unique to you. What should be universal, however, is the protection you receive from a high quality moisturizer for your face.

At Malie, we believe that natural is the way to go. Our BotanyBeauty line of clean skin care products was designed to provide 360-degree benefits for your skin. From cleansing to moisturizing, you’ll have everything you need to let your natural glow shine through.

Why We Need Moisturizer

When it comes to moisturizer, it’s all about hydration. Sure, you may have heard about the importance of staying hydrated when it comes to drinking water, and that’s certainly super important. But for skin care, it’s not just about getting in your 64 oz of H20. Rather, it’s about how your body and your skin in particular use water to stay supple, hydrated, and properly nourished.

We need face moisturizers for a number of reasons. First, moisturizers help prevent dryness. Over time, excessively dry skin could lead to skin irritation and may make you more susceptible to fine lines, wrinkles, and other skin conditions.

Second, moisturizer is important for keeping your skin protected from the elements. Every environment comes with its own set of challenges. For example, living in tropical Hawai’i exposes you to tons of natural sunlight, which is a beautiful thing. The downside, however, is that a lot of sun can be drying.

Additionally, the UV rays that come with excessive sun exposure could be harmful over time. Another part of living in our version of paradise is that sand and dirt inevitably finds its way onto our skin when we spend so much time outdoors. You need something that will prevent dirt from clogging your pores so you can feel free to venture off into the sand and ocean worry-free.

People who live in more urban areas need moisturizer as well. Whether you’re rushing around city streets or you spend most of your time indoors, everyone could benefit from protection against wind, dirt, and debris.

Stll, it’s not enough to just use any old moisturizer. The secret to beautiful skin lies in finding the right blend and the right brand.

Why a Natural Skin Care Routine is Better

It’s easy to say that natural skin care products are always better, but that unfortunately isn’t the truth. Natural products come with plenty of benefits as long as they’re created with care, purpose, and intention. Remember, the overall goal is for your moisturizer to be effective. If it doesn’t actually provide the benefits you’re after, then it’s not doing its job.

The best natural skin care products offer the following benefits:

• No harsh ingredients
• No harmful chemicals
• Less risk of irritation and negative side effects
• Less likely to cause breakouts
• More connected to the planet and Earth’s natural elements

Clean skin care boasts a host of benefits and the ones we mentioned above are just some of them. As you establish your own routine and start to get into the groove of going natural, you’ll start to see more of the benefits for yourself.

How to Develop a Natural Skin Care Routine

Developing a natural skin care routine requires finding the right products, i.ie., ones that won’t irritate your skin but will actually replenish it.

The best thing to do is to go natural, with brands that prioritize integrity and effectiveness. Start by looking for recognizable ingredients within the products themselves. Organic plant oils, vitamins, and omegas are commonly found in many of the foods and items you may already use at home.

Even still, there are a lot of natural skin care brands out there. How do you know which ones will really deliver? The key is to find a company that cares about your overall state of being. That’s where Malie comes in. We know that the secret to effective natural skin care is in the ingredients within the product, the complementary products, and your overall skin care routine. A natural moisturizer is one of the most vital components of this routine. So if you’re looking to get the most out of your natural moisturizer and see its value in full, you’ve come to the right place.

Benefits of a Natural Moisturizer

Exploring the secrets to beautiful skin means understanding how the natural moisturizer you use can add value to you. As a quick recap, some of the benefits of using natural skincare include:

• Better texture
• Tend to be lightweight and nongreasy
• Cleaner ingredients
• Less risk of negative reactions
• Eco-friendly and better for the planet
• Trustworthy ingredients you recognize

So, what are those ingredients? We’ll break it all down for you below.

The Ingredients in Natural Moisturizers

The key with natural skin care is to understand what really matters and that’s the ingredients.  Every skin care company does things differently, but the goal of any natural moisturizer should be to prioritize authenticity. At Malie, that means using at least 70% organic ingredients in our products.

Powered by plant science, Malie Organics’ BotanyBeauty Collection contains moisturizers with plant extracts. This reduces the need for chemicals, some of which can be damaging for the skin.

Some of the most common ingredients you’ll find in our natural moisturizers include:

• Jojoba Oil

The benefits of jojoba oil for skin are plentiful. Oil-rich emollients help with dry, flaky skin while replenishing the skin barrier. The high vitamin E content of Jojoba Oil also helps soften so skin stays moisturized and supple. The result is better skin elasticity and a smoother surface overall.

• Kukui Nut Oil

Known for its anti-inflammatory properties, Kukui Nut OIl is also rich in antioxidants. This helps nourish the skin as it moisturizes it. Still, it does all this with a non-greasy feel so you don’t have to worry about a heaviness on your skin. Naturally rich in linoleic and oleic fatty acids, Kukui Nut Oil provides an added layer of protection to the skin’s barrier that helps prevent water loss.

• Avocado Oil

This natural moisturizer doesn’t just taste good in food- it’s also fantastic for your skin. Avocado Oil is known for being particularly effective for people with excessively dry skin. It can also help reduce signs of aging by potentially helping stimulate collagen production.

• Argan Oil

Many people know about using Argan Oil for hair but not as many are familiar with the benefits it offers in natural face moisturizers. The vitamin E compounds (tocopherols) found in Argan Oil may help with hyperpigmentation that often comes from sun exposure and natural aging.

• Omega Fatty Acids

An integral part of skin health is nutrition but that doesn’t just come from what you eat. Omega Fatty Acids in natural skin care products may be the secret to beautiful skin. Not only do they soften and soothe, but they may also be helpful for reducing signs of irritation that could come from certain forms of dermatitis. 

What You Won’t Find…

Just as important as what is in the best natural moisturizers is what is not in them. Specifically, we’re referring to harsh chemicals, fragrances, and more. Here’s what you won’t find in our skin care products:

• Paragens → NO!
• Sulfates → NO!
• Phthalates → No!
• Petrochemicals → NO!
• Mineral Oil → NO!
• Silicone → NO!
• Talc → NO!
• Alcohol → NO!
• PEGs → NO!
• Gluten → NO!

Equally important is how they’re made. There’s no way you can feel good about your skin if you know that the products you use on it were made in less than ethical ways. The best moisturizers and natural skin care products will always be cruelty-free and never tested on animals.

Our Favorite Natural Moisturizers

Suitable for individuals of all ages and skin types, the natural skin care products you’ll find in Malie’s BotanyBeauty are made with your best interests at heart. Our moisturizers deliver the power of plant science in a way that’s clean, sustainable, and effective.

• Illuminating Moisturizer

  Lightweight and long-lasting, the Illuminating Moisturizer is a nourishing daily drink for the skin. Natural ingredients work to cleanse pores and clear skin while creating a protective barrier.

  Soothing Aloe Vera  reduces the risk of irritation while potent Pineapple Fruit Extract helps restore firmness, supple smoothness, and a healthy, hydrated glow. Then there’s organic Lavender paired with Dimethyl Sulfone MSM, nature’s beauty mineral. This combination helps with collagen production. All the while, a balanced blend of Clove Essential Oil, Organic Juniper, and organic Cayenne help prevent excess oil production. This natural combination lets congested or blemished skin heal, repair and clarify without drying it out or adding redness or inflammation.

• Illuminating Serum

  Highly absorbent and highly effective, the Illuminating Serum contains an organic blend of  essential oils to balance oil production while moisturizing for a youthful glow. Antioxidant-rich oils nourish the skin as omega fatty acids and plant emollients help with absorption. Powerful plant ingredients reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while brightening skin tone. The result is skin that feels healthy, revitalized and rejuvenated.

• Firming Cream

  Rich and hydrating, this natural moisturizer uses five superior antioxidants that work in tandem to repair cell damage and neutralize the free radicals that contribute to signs of aging. These antioxidants also provide dynamic anti-inflammatory and natural antibacterial qualities to give the appearance of clear, fresh, glowing skin.

  What are these powerful antioxidants, you might ask? One of them is Hawaiian Coffee Fruit, which has more antioxidant power than any other fruit source. It contains five exceptional phenolic antioxidant acids developed by nature to work together and produce visible results. Chlorogenic & Caffeic Acid also contain powerful anti-inflammatory properties that help increase the appearance of firmness and tighten skin. Ferulic Acid helps combat free radical cell damage to reduce the effects of UV and environmental exposure. Finally, Quinic Acid & Trigonelline’s effective antibacterial properties cleanse skin and give the appearance of an even skin tone, which helps brighten skin.
