Oily skin care tips

Oily skin is a kind of skin type which is characterized by excessive sebum production that results in oil all over your face. That in turn brings a lot of challenges for you to deal with and if left untreated it will lead to acne breakouts, blemishes, etc. This skin type usually gets clogged up due to excessive sebum production that needs urgent and regular treatment. Some of the oily skin care tips you need to follow:

1. Wash regularly

Washing your skin regularly can reduce the amount of oil production on your skin. The following things are recommended to treat oily skin:

  • You should regularly wash your skin with mild soap and lukewarm water.
  • Avoid using soaps with fragrances, or the use of harsh chemicals, which can easily irritate or even dry out your skin, making it respond to more sebum production.
  • Avoid using loofahs and any other rough washcloths, as it adds friction that may stimulate your entire skin to produce more oil.

2. Use a toner

Astringent toners that usually contain alcohol tend to dry out your skin. However, according to several clinical studies it has been established that natural astringents can have soothing properties on your skin.

3. Keep your face dry

You need to dry your face properly after each face wash. When drying your face after washing, you should gently pat your skin dry with a soft and clean towel.

      FAQs

      Which cream is best for oily skin for daily use?

      There is a myth among the masses that we should not moisturize oily skin, clearly, that didn’t turn out well as stated in many clinical research studies. You can go for green tea mattifying moisturizer to get your skin well treated. 

      When to use toner day or night?

      You should use toner twice a day at least in the morning and night, right after you are done with your cleansing. Remember to use your toner within a couple of minutes of your cleansing for your best results.

      How many times, to wash your face for oily skin?

      If your skin is too oily you may be of the view that you should wash your face multiple times during the day. But according to scientific studies you should wash your face only during the day and night.

      How to use a face serum with moisturizer?

      In most cases, it makes complete sense to apply the face serum before using moisturizer. This is because the serum is usually quite lightweight, whereas your moisturizer tends to be much thicker. Applying face serum first can give your skin much more opportunity to absorb these active ingredients. So moisturizer should be the last step in your skincare routine.

      How much moisturizer to use on the face?

      About an amount of nickel-sized moisturizer should be a good amount to cover up your face. If you are including your neck too then it may be best for you to use about a quarter-sized amount of moisturizer to ensure you can entirely cover up your face.
