FAQs
How do natural butters help in skin care?
NamoMonk natural butters consist of plant-derived lipids rich in triglycerides, essential fatty acids, and fat‑soluble vitamins that support skin nourishment and conditioning. These compositions aid in deep softening while establishing a breathable, protective barrier on the skin's surface.
How do natural oils help your skin?
Botanical oils work to moisturize and repair the skin's surface, smoothing out minor imperfections and creating a protective lipid layer that boosts comfort and elasticity. These oils are rich in essential nutrients such as vitamins, polyphenols, and healthy fats that contribute to overall skin health.
How do butters & oils help my Indian skin type?
Well-chosen butters and oils reinforce the barrier, reduce transepidermal water loss, and help temper inflammatory cascades. Antioxidant lipids counter oxidative stress from UV and pollution. Used consistently alongside sunscreen, they improve suppleness and resilience while minimizing triggers that perpetuate pigmentation.
