Does The Quality of My Skincare Matter?

It is always good to question things in life, to make sure that we are getting the best that we can, and this also applies with using skincare. There are so many differing opinions over which skincare products to use, and we know that for some people skincare is not important to them and the quality does not matter. However, at Nakin we strongly believe that the quality of the skincare products that we use does matter. This is because our skin is a part of our whole biology and how we treat it can affect our whole health; it is also our largest organ and absorbs so much of what we put onto it.

At Nakin we are huge advocates of natural skincare and for us being natural is synonymous with quality skincare. This is because natural skincare is so easily accepted by our skin and is usually so well tolerated, whereas synthetic skincare can be more alien to our skin and not have the holistic element. There are so many reasons why using high quality natural skincare can benefit our skin and we have outlined them below.

• Nourishes Your Skin: Low-quality skincare products often contain harmful ingredients that can strip your skin's natural oils and cause irritation or inflammation. On the other hand, premium natural skincare is usually formulated with nourishing ingredients like antioxidants, vitamins, and actives that can replenish and protect the skin.
• Addresses Skin Concerns: High-quality skincare is specifically designed to target specific skin concerns such as dryness, acne, or signs of ageing, and doing this naturally is so much kinder to our skin. Good products contain natural active ingredients in effective concentrations, that can make a noticeable difference in your skin's appearance and overall health.
• Prevents Damage: Using low-quality skincare products can lead to more harm than good in the long run. Harsh chemicals and fillers used in these products can cause damage to the skin, making it more sensitive and prone to problems. High-quality natural skincare should be made with safe and effective ingredients that work gently on your skin without causing any harm.
• Long-term Benefits: Consistently using high-quality natural skincare over time can bring about long-lasting benefits for your skin's health and appearance. It can help maintain a healthy barrier function, keep your skin well-hydrated, and improve its texture and tone.
• Self-care Ritual: Skincare is not just about taking care of your physical appearance; it also has mental and emotional benefits. Having a regular skincare routine can be a form of self-care and help you relax, destress, and boost your overall mood.
• More Value for Money: While high-quality skincare may come at a higher cost, it is worth the investment in the long run. Cheaper products may seem like a more affordable option initially, but they often contain fewer effective ingredients and are more synthetic, meaning they can cause irritation or the performance is unlikely to be high.
