Oily skin care
People who have oily skin know that this type of skin is the result of excessive production of sebum ( naturally produced by skin oily substance). Excessive sebum leads to clogging of skin pores, which in turn results in accumulation of hence formation of pimples/acne and dead cells. Of course, oily skin care is as important as other skin types treatment.
First of all you need to remove excessive sebum or oil from the skin. But you need to remember that oily skin procedures should not remove oil completely. You will need a cleanser with salicylic acid - a beta-hydroxy acid that retards the rate of sebum production, acnezine, for example. You should cleanse your skin two times a day, and even more in humid and hot conditions.
Most of the products for oily skin care doesn’t contain oil, but you should check ingredients anyway to elude the worsening of the situation. This is very important when product is marked as a product for all skin types. But, if your skin is not too oily you can sometimes use skin care products marked “for all skin types”, and if your skin is extremely oily then you should stick to those marked “for oily skin” only. Everyday oily skin care may include an alcohol based toner (for an excessively oily skin). Remember that excessive toning may harm your skin.
After that you shold use a mild moisturiser. Again, the degree of oiliness of your skin will determine whether you need to include this in your oily skin care routine. If you do decide to include a moisturiser, be sure to use one that is oil-free, wax-free and lipid-free.
You could also use a clay mask (approximately once a week) as an oily skin care measure.
Sometimes you need to experimentally determine which of the oily skin products are better for your skin. If you haven’t achieved the desired result, don’t get upset. You should consult a good dermatologist for advice, he will definitely find a sloution for your problem by prescribing best skin care products, including sulphur creams, retinoids, vitamin A creams and many more. That’ll definitely help
you with your oily skin problems.
