Natural Footprints Body Butters are very nourishing for the skin and a little goes a long way!

Coconut oil may be linked to some potential benefits for skin, including reducing inflammation, keeping skin moisturized and helping heal wounds. The medium-chain fatty acids found in coconut oil also possess antimicrobial properties that can help treat acne and protect the skin from harmful bacteria.

Shea butter is an excellent moisturizing agent that melts on contact with the skin, protects against

water loss and outside weathering (sun, snow, rain and wind), and boosts the protective layer and

barrier repair function of the skin. It hydrates, moisturizes, softens and smooths dry, dehydrated

and damaged skin.

Hemp oil, especially hemp seed oil, is rich in unsaturated fats such as linoleic acid, γ-linolenic acid, and α-linolenic acid.

These three fatty acids may help improve skin structure by helping the skin retain moisture. They also have a beneficial effect on dry, rough skin and can influence the fluidity of cell membranes and transport of electrolytes.

10 Reasons we use Sunflower Oil:

1. It hydrates.

Like the skin’s own natural oil, or sebum, sunflower oil is an emollient, meaning it adds hydration and smooths. That makes it a perfect moisturizer as it helps skin to retain water.

2. It’s rich in antioxidants.

Sunflower oil is rich in vitamin E, a protective antioxidant. It also contains vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin K and vitamin D, which help to protector from environmental stressors that can cause premature aging.

3. It helps to unclog pores.

This smooth, nourishing oil is non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog pores. Sunflower oil can actually help to decongest pores by clearing them of dead skin cells and creating a refreshed, revitalized appearance.

4. It can minimize signs of aging.

With protective antioxidants and its ability to retain moisture, sunflower oil can help minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles. It can also help protect your skin against further damage.

5. It’s soothing.

Sunflower oil is known for its ability to soothe irritated skin. It works for all skin types and provides gentle moisture and protection.

6. It can help calm temporary redness.

Sunflower oil can actually alleviate temporary redness in sensitive or dry skin.

7. It protects skin.

Sunflower oil provides a protective barrier against environmental stressors, helping your skin stay clean and free from dirt and toxins.

8. It can help even out skin tone and texture.

Easily absorbed into skin, sunflower oil can even out the look of your skin’s surface and even temporarily shrink the appearance of pores.

9. It’s a natural botanical.

All good things grow in the garden! Sunflower oil has been around for thousands of years and is free from nasty chemicals or toxins.

10. It’s gentle.

For those with sensitive or mature skin, the benefits of sunflower oil include its gentle, calming properties and ability to soothe.
