Omegas 3, 6, 7 and 9 are important dietary fats generally thought to be the best fatty acids for promoting smoother, younger looking skin with a healthier complexion regardless of age or skin type.
They are good fats as your body also needs them to function at its best.
Benefits of Omegas 3, 6, 7 and 9 for the Skin.
People with Essential fatty acid deficiency, (EFAD) experience loss of moisture, causing dry, flaky and damaged skin, but topical application of oils rich in these fatty acids Omegas 3, 6, 7 and 9, help to improve hydration.
These fatty acids help to keep the outermost layer of the skin strong and healthy and prevent moisture from escaping, smoothing the surface of the skin, they have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.
A Skincare product containing Omegas 3, 6, 7 and 9 helps with the following:
Supporting the skin’s barrier function
Visibly plumping the skin
Aiding in skin repair and regeneration
Increasing radiance
Preventing moisture loss
Reducing redness and irritation caused by environmental aggressors
Strengthening the skin
Whilst EFAs are important for healthy skin, they also help to prevent other health problems such as heart disease, high cholesterol, stroke and diabetes.
Where are Omegas found?
Omegas 3 and 6 are are polyunsaturated, “essential†fatty acids because the body can not produce them, therefore you get them from your diet or topically.
Omegas 7 and 9 are monounsaturated, “nonessential†fatty acids because the body can naturally produce them, however it is still recommended that you include them in your diet.
To get the full benefits for your skin, you should take them orally (in food or supplements) and apply them topically.
Omega 3 Fatty Acids: The most common in this category is Alpha-linolenic acid, found in green vegetables.
Omega 6 Fatty Acids: The most common in this category is Linoleic acid, found in vegetable oils.
Omega 7 Fatty Acids: The most common in this category is Palmitoleic acid found in plants and fish.
Omega 9 Fatty Acids: The most common in this category is Oleic acid found in seeds and nuts.
Omega 3 Fatty Acids
Impact on overall health: Omega 3 reduces inflammation, improves heart health, reduces high risk of cholesterol, supports an efficient metabolism, and helps manage depression.
Impact on skin health: Omega 3 helps reduce sun sensitivity, reducing inflammation and acne flare ups and improves the skin’s barrier function by keeping moisture locked in. Omega 3 is typically thought to be the best fatty acid for skin.
Best food sources of omega 3: Because the body does not produce omega 3 naturally, it is recommended that you get at least two servings weekly of this essential nutrient.
These food sources are especially rich in omega 3 fatty acids:
Fish – Salmon, Tuna, Halibut, Trout, Mackerel and Anchovies
Seeds – Chia and Flax seeds
Seaweed and Algae
Green vegetables – Kale, Brussel Sprouts, Spinach and Broccoli
Soybeans
To ensure you are getting plenty of omega 3, you could also consider supplements.
Omega 6 Fatty Acids
Impact on overall health: Omega 6 helps with heart health, joints, bones, healthy cholesterol, weight management and improves energy levels.
Impact on skin health: Omega 6 (specifically Linoleic acid) improves skin’s ability to retain moisture.
Best food sources of omega 6:
Seeds – Hemp, Grape and Sunflower
Nuts – Almonds, Walnuts, Cashews and Pistachios
Tofu
Eggs
Avocado
Omega 7 Fatty Acids
Omega 7 is not such a commonly seen Omega in skincare, it is in Sea Buckthorn, an Ingredient used by us in our Certified Organic Intense Serum.
Impact on overall health: Omega 7 helps reduce bad cholesterol, levels, and promotes an increase in good cholesterol, contributes to good hydration of dry skin and mucous membranes (nasal, vaginal, ocular, oral and digestive).
Impact on skin health: Omega 7 promotes healthy moisturised skin, hair and nails helping nourish from within.
Best food sources of omega 7: Unlike omegas 3 and 6, fatty acids are not considered “essential,†because the body can produce them, however, they do have health benefits and are considered better for you than many other kinds of fat.
Some healthy ways to get omega 7 into your diet include:
Macadamia nuts
Avocado
Olives
Fish – Salmon, Herring, and Mackerel
Omega 9 Fatty Acids
Impact on overall health: Omega 9 helps reduce inflammation, raise good cholesterol and lower bad cholesterol levels, raise energy levels and help control blood sugar levels.
Impact on skin health: Omega 9 can help maintain skin’s moisture level and improve skin’s elasticity.
Best food sources of omega 9: Unlike omega 3 and 6, fatty acids are not considered “essential,†because the body can produce them, however, they do have health benefits and are considered better for you than many other kinds of fat.
Some healthy ways to get omega 9 in your diet include:
Olives
Seeds – Sesame and Chia
Nuts – Pistachios, Almonds, Walnuts, Peanuts and Cashews
Avocado
Eggs
Almost all animal meat
Topical applications have been shown to be an effective method of delivering EFAs directly to the skin.
This is why many quality skincare products add omegas 3, 6, 7 and 9 fatty acids.
Utilising topical use and diet is the best answer for great skincare.
Apply skincare products that are naturally high in Omega acids.
Since Omega acids benefit skin in so many ways, these essential ingredients can help to keep you looking your very best.
Omega Oils are contained in all The PÜRE Collection’s oil based products.

The word antioxidant certainly is a much used buzzword throughout the skincare industry.
Antioxidants are naturally occurring Vitamins (such as Vitamins A, C and E) that help to protect the skin’s surface from environmental stresses.
Antioxidants are not just one ingredient, you will not see the word antioxidant in your skincare ingredients list, it refers to a group of ingredients all working the same way to ‘fight free radical damage’.
An Antioxidant is a substance that inhibits oxidation by removing potentially damaging oxidising agents such as free radicals in a living organism.
Free radicals are molecules in the environment that damage your skin, coming from air pollutants, chemicals, and cigarette smoke.
Antioxidants neutralise the free radicals to help protect your skin from damage.
What are the Benefits of Antioxidants for the skin?
Environmental stresses can accelerate the development of signs of ageing by breaking down collagen, slowing down the skin’s natural repair process and triggering inflammation.
Antioxidants can help and delay these visible signs of ageing.
All antioxidants have anti-inflammatory properties and help protect against sun damage.
Free radicals and frequent exposure to the sun can also trigger changes in our skin’s melanin production, which can cause dark spots and uneven skin tone, antioxidants can help prevent abnormal skin pigmentation.
A great example is seeing a sliced apple turn brown as it is exposed to the air, this is the process of oxidation, caused by free radicals.
Most Effective Skincare Antioxidants:
Vitamin A or Retinol: Smooths fine lines, fills in wrinkles, softens bumps and rough patches, brightens skin, fades scars and dark marks, and drastically reduces acne.
Vitamin C: Renowned for its brightening properties, Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that promotes a glowing complexion, it helps to boost collagen production, helping to even skin tone and minimise the appearance of dark spots, it also helps to tighten the feel of skin and reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
Vitamin E: A natural anti-inflammatory, and a strong shield against free radicals and premature ageing, it keeps skin soft and supple.
Botanical extracts (phytoextracts): There are many botanical extracts used in skincare for their antioxidant properties, including Prickly Pear, Blue Tansy and Myrrh.
Niacinamide: Also known as Vitamin B3, Niacinamide improves skin tone and texture, and helps fades dark marks.

One of our most popular products is our PhytoHealth Revitalising Serum.
One of the oils we use in this product is Tamanu Oil for its antibiotic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties.
The Tamanu tree is native to South East Asia, with unusual black bark and shiny leaves, it blooms twice a year with white, fragrant flowers that produce a fruit that looks like a small apple.
As the fruit ripens, it turns from green to yellow and then hardens and turns to brown and eventually shrivels up, at this stage the seed (kernel) is removed from the fruit and dried in the sun for several weeks before the oil is extracted by cold press.
100 kilograms of Tamanu fruit are required to produce just 5 kilograms of oil.
The oil contains a unique fatty acid Calophyllic acid which is a natural antibiotic called Lactone, it also contains a natural, non-steroid anti-inflammatory called Calophyllolide, this is what sets Tamanu oil apart from other oils as it is not found in any other oil.
It has a low comedogenic rating of 2, which means it is less likely to clog your pores.
Tamanu is another expensive ingredient that we use, because of its cost, we know other skincare companies might skip using Tamanu oil as an ingredient, but we know the benefits are worth it and our customers expect the only the finest from us.
