Why Fresh When Natural

Why Fresh When Natural

At LMB FRESH, we focus on making small batches of not just “natural” but fresh pure botanicals, delivered directly every month. While we all know that natural skincare is better for us, we want to emphasize why freshness is equally important. Here’s a nutshell summary of why fresh natural skincare matters:

1. Higher Potency & Efficacy

Only fresh natural ingredients retain their full spectrum of active compounds, such as antioxidants, vitamins, and essential oils, which can diminish or degrade through processing and prolonged storage. Freshly made botanicals maintain the highest levels of active ingredients, making skincare more potent and effective.

2. Enhanced Nutrient Retention

Natural ingredients degrade over time due to exposure to light, air, or heat. Fresh skincare products, produced in small batches, are not compromised by aging. As a result, they provide the skin with maximum nourishment.

3. Better Skin Compatibility

Fresh ingredients are often more bioavailable, meaning the skin can absorb and utilize them more effectively. Because these ingredients are closer to their original form, they interact with the skin in a more natural way, leading to improved hydration and repair.

4. No Preservatives or Additives

Fresh skincare doesn’t require synthetic preservatives because it is produced in smaller batches monthly and isn’t stored for long periods. This means there are no chemicals in the formulation, reducing the risk of irritation, allergic reactions, or buildup on the skin.

5. Sustainability & Ethical Sourcing

Fresh natural skincare is sustainable, as we use locally sourced ingredients. This creates a more ethical and environmentally conscious alternative to mass-produced "natural" skincare products.

6. Better Results Over Time

Because fresh skincare products deliver a higher concentration of active ingredients, the improvements to the skin are more noticeable. This leads to a more immediate and long-lasting transformation compared to natural products made with dried, processed, or preserved ingredients.

7. Sensory Experience

The vibrant scent and texture of fresh ingredients elevate the mood and enhance the overall experience of using fresh skincare. Retaining their aromatic and tactile qualities, fresh skincare products provide a luxurious, enjoyable ritual that also contributes to a sense of well-being.

We recognize that fresh natural skincare is not just about being "natural" but about ensuring that nature’s most powerful offerings reach your skin in their most effective and nourishing form. This leads to better results, a healthier skin microbiome, and a more sustainable approach to beauty.

The difference with fresh is simply remarkable!
