Omega fatty acids are essential for your skin.

Maria Teresa Moneo

If you are still looking for the answer to clarify your doubts about what they are, the differences between them, and how to choose the best products with Omegas for your skin, today is your lucky day because we tell you all about it!

Omega Acids are Essential Fatty Acids present in food and are necessary to provide us above all, good health and well-being, one of the great reasons why adding them in our skin care treatments are essential, as we reinforce those acquired through our diet, thus providing that double benefit to our skin!

What are the Omega Fatty Acids and their differences?

There are 3 main fatty acids which are Omega 3, 6 and 9.

Linolenic Acid (Omega-3) and Linoleic Acid (Omega-6) are not biologically produced by the body, so they must be obtained through the diet.

On the other hand, we have the Oleic Acid (Omega-9) this is a fatty acid that our body can produce by itself, so it is classified as a "non-essential" and important fatty acid.

Where can we find them?

  • OMEGA-3: fish oil, vegetable oil, walnut oil, flaxseed oil, chia and flaxseed, leafy vegetables...
  • OMEGA-6: safflower oil, grape seed, sunflower, soybean, sesame, pumpkin...
  • OMEGA-9: olive oil, sunflower oil, flaxseed oil, macadamia nuts, avocado, olive, almond...

What are the benefits of applying them to our skin?

Research has shown that Omega Fatty Acids play a very important role thanks to the benefits they provide to maintain a healthy skin and in perfect well-being, among other things.

Its deficiency in the skin can lead to the loss of water and fat, causing dry skin, and can also cause the epidermal barrier to be insufficiently reinforced and vulnerable to pathogens, weakening its condition, causing irritation and sensitivity, and also influencing the appearance of blemishes and accelerated aging.

There is evidence that oily skin can be deficient in Omegas, causing a weakened skin barrier and an entry point for pathogens.
