Water

Our skin needs water to maintain its proper function and many natural products contain water. There are various schools of thought on whether water in skincare formulations is beneficial for the skin, some citing that it helps boost hydration and others claiming it enhances dryness as the skin barrier is constantly trying to rebalance in accordance with its surroundings. Water makes a good base for moisturisers and lotions that require easy absorption so can be beneficial for those of us that don’t have as much time to wait for an oil to seep into the skin. It is important to note though, that water cannot be certified as organic and that it also forces any formulation with water in it to also include a preservative to prevent it from spoiling.
