Have you heard about all the benefits of waterless, water-free or anhydrous skincare products? If you look at the label on your favorite products, aqua (water) is most likely one of the first ingredients on the list. As fresh, clean, water becomes increasingly scarce, waterless beauty and skincare is more so a need rather than a trend to help conserve precious resources. Continue reading for all the benefits you need to know about waterless products!
Benefits of Waterless Skincare
More potent active ingredients
Products containing water typically have diluted ingredients which means you can reap all the amazing benefits of your active ingredients with waterless products. Waterless products use botanical extracts and hydrating oils to create a base to deliver a nourishing finish to protect your skin’s moisture. Since the ingredients are more concentrated, a little goes a long way with water-free products, and they will store much longer than products containing water.
No additives or preservatives
Water breeds bacteria and since waterless products contain no added water, the need for preservatives and extra additives is eliminated. This means your waterless products will last longer without harmful ingredients and is safe for sensitive, eczema-like skin. Keep in mind that bacteria can still enter your products through your hands or from other particles, so make sure your hands are clean and close your containers tightly after each use!
Water conservation
When you think of ways to conserve water, you may think of taking shorter showers, fixing leaky sinks, or perhaps reducing car washes. Another way you can reduce your carbon footprint is by investing in water-free beauty and skincare products. The little things count when it comes to environmental wellness, so switching to water-free products is another step you can take to help reduce your water usage.
Pure ingredients for a vegan, waterless balm
To create this water-free formula, most brands use beeswax. However, this formula would not be suitable for vegans or plant-based individuals. If you’re looking for a deeply hydrating, versatile, plant-based, vegan and waterless product, the Naturally Woww Waterless Miracle Baby Balm for face and body is exactly what you need. Formulated with candelilla wax instead of beeswax, this balm is a must-have for not only yourself, but for babies as well. Clean ingredients such as mango seed butter, shea butter, coconut oil, sweet almond oil, avocado oil, jojoba seed oil and tangerine peel oil are ideal for all baby and mommy needs.
