Results vary depending on the product and skin concern. On average, it may take 4–6 weeks of consistent use to see significant improvements.

Generally, yes, but different skin types have unique needs. For example, dry skin benefits from rich oils like argan oil, while oily skin does better with lightweight ingredients like aloe vera or jojoba oil.

- Are natural skin care products better for sensitive skin?

Often, yes! Natural products are free from synthetic fragrances, dyes, and preservatives, which are common irritants. However, it's important to patch-test products, as even natural ingredients (like essential oils) can cause reactions in some individuals.
