Why are these Omegas called “Essential Fatty Acids”?

At Becky Hume's Beauti Reflections, we understand that the health of your skin is deeply linked to the nutrients it absorbs, both from your diet and your skincare regimen. One of the most crucial components for maintaining vibrant, healthy skin are Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), specifically Omega 6 and Omega 3. But why are they called "essential"? Let’s dive into their vital roles and how you can best incorporate them into your skincare routine.


Understanding Essential Fatty Acids: What Are They?

Essential Fatty Acids are named for their crucial role in maintaining health, yet the human body cannot synthesize them on its own. This is why EFAs must be obtained through your diet or through topical skincare products. In our TruAura Beauty cleanser, Omega 6 and Omega 3 are incorporated not just for their health benefits related to brain function and heart health, but also for their ability to support and enhance skin structure and function.


The Role of EFAs in Skin Health

When applied topically, as in our TruAura Beauty Cleanser, EFAs provide multiple skin benefits. They help reinforce the skin’s barrier, smooth the skin’s texture, and calm redness and sensitivity. Additionally, they are effective in hydrating the skin, eliminating flakiness, and delivering antioxidants that combat the signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles.

While EFAs are beneficial in skincare products, incorporating them into your diet is equally important. Foods rich in Omega 3 and Omega 6, such as safflower, flaxseeds, walnuts, and fatty fish, help maintain a healthy balance and support overall skin health from the inside out.

EFAs and Your Beauty Routine

Incorporating EFAs into your beauty routine can significantly impact the health and appearance of your skin. Our TruAura Cleanser, enriched with these essential nutrients, mimics the natural moisturizing factors of the skin, ensuring these vital nutrients remain even after the product is rinsed off.



Benefits of EFAs for Anti-Aging and Radiant Skin

EFAs offer potent anti-aging properties. They not only help in reducing the visible signs of aging but also protect against environmental stressors due to their antioxidant properties. This results in a more radiant, youthful complexion.


Choosing the Right EFA-Enriched Products

Selecting the right skincare products enriched with EFAs can be pivotal in achieving optimal skin health. At Beauti Reflections, our TruAura Beauty Cleanser is designed to provide these essential nutrients in a form that’s gentle yet effective for all skin types.

TruAura Nourishing Cleanser

Omega 6 & Omega 3 found in TruAura Skin Care Cleanser help to:

  • Reinforce & smooth our skin                                   
  • Calm redness & sensitivity
  • Eliminates flaking skin that has been over dried
  • Deliver antioxidants that reduce fine lines & wrinkles
  • Offering free radicals repair


This is just a peek into the Fatty Acids found as ingredients in TruAura Beauty Cleanser. By the way, these do not rinse off after application thanks to NMF or the fact that the skin identical ingredients of our cleanser mimic natural moisturizing factor of the skin.


Integrating EFAs into Your Daily Diet for Optimal Health

To maximize the benefits of EFAs, consider both topical applications and dietary intake. A balanced approach ensures that your skin receives these essential nutrients from multiple sources, promoting overall health and vitality.
