The reason we advocate using oil instead of soap to cleanse, is to support the natural balance of your skin rather than stripping it from its protective lipid barrier and microbiome.

The microbiome is individual to each person. The first major microbial encounter is when a baby receives microbe-rich bodily fluids from the mother during delivery.

After that a few factors contributing to your microbiome are where you live, what you eat, who you hang out with and what you put on your skin. But there is still so much we don't know about the human microbiome.

However, we do know that the microbiome is involved in keeping your skin healthy and defending the body from outside invaders.

Therefore, we believe it is of great value to support this clever system from birth and throughout life. We are doing this by making non-invasive skincare.
