Tips to overcome oily skin

Causes of shiny skin

Oily skin is caused by your skin producing more sebum than other skin types. Most people with oily skin tend to have a shiny T-zone and large pores. In addition, the skin also produces sweat, which can make your skin look shiny and moist.

Hot and humid weather can also cause excess sebum production.

Using the wrong skin care products can also cause excessive shine. For example, if you have oily skin and use a moisturizer that contains vegetable oil or mineral oil, the amount of shine can be doubled.

Over-cleansing and over-exfoliating can also increase sebum production.

Troubleshooting Tips

Use a gentle cleanser that contains salicylic acid (BHA) and don’t wash your face more than twice a day. Avoid bar soaps and wipes that contain alcohol.

You should only exfoliate once a week.

Toners with ingredients like glycolic acid and lactic acid can help dry up excess oil and reduce shine, while minimizing pores.

Use suitable makeup products and carry sebum-control powder when outdoors.

When your skin is moisturized, it will not produce too much sebum, so dermatologists recommend using a moisturizing lotion even at home. You can use gel products containing hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, and green tea.

Check out a clear sunscreen that's formulated with oil-free ingredients and ultra-fine zinc oxide to absorb excess oil.

Use clay mask once a week.
