The Skin Care Routine for Oily Skin

I present an ideal skin care regimen for people with oily skin type:

Morning: This involves washing the oily skin at least once with a mild non – irritating soap which is useful in washing away excess oil without harming the skin. As for finding products suitable for acne-prone skin, one needs to look for active substances like salicylic acid.

• – Wash face with a mild alcohol and oil-free toner that contains ingredients such as witch hazel or glycolic acid that will help in deep cleansing of skin to eliminate the excess oils.

   

• – After the skin has dried up but is still slightly damp, gently dab it with a towel and put on some oil-free lotion as the skin requires a lot of moisture but not oil. It is also not recommended to use lotions that have an oily base because oil dissolves plastic and thus will have a detrimental effect on the bottle.

   

• – Employ a product that could act as a blot that is used before applying makeup in order to reduce the shine of oily skin.

   

– Avoid touching the face when applying makeup; if this is not practicable, use oil-free cosmetics.

evening: Cleanse the face with an oil-free makeup remover, focusing on the eye area, in order to ensure that all makeup has been removed.

• – He or she should wash the face each morning or use a morning wash and use cleansers containing alpha hydroxy acids or beta hydroxy acids in order to make sure that the skin pores are not blocked.

   

• – But use a serum containing niacinamide that may aide in controlling the secretion of oil on the skin.

   

• – Then apply some oil-free moisturizer on your skin Surface.

   

• – As for the daily care, it will suffice to cleanse the skin and apply a clay mask at least twice a week.

Here are some additional tips for controlling oily skin during the day:

• – Blotting papers come in handy throughout the day because it is impossible to wash the face frequently. Keep some of them in your purse or pocket or at your desk and use it every time you see that shine peeping through.
• – Other make-up preparation products including oil- blotting primers, loose or compressed powder, and setting mists reduce the shine. They should be mainly applied on the T-zones of the skin which include the forehead, the nose and the chin as these parts of the skin are always oily. Then, wear them again when necessary during the course of the day if you are going to expose yourself to more bacteria and viruses.
• – The skin should not be washed too often since this increases production of the oil; washing of the face should only be done twice, in the morning and at night. The cleanser used should be mild yet efficient on an oily skin type.
• – Another suggestion that aligns with the previous suggestion is to take much water. This is because a dry skin is an indication that the oil glands need oil to make sebum in larger quantities. However, it is wise to avoid soft drinks or foods containing sugars and caffeine because these cause increase in oiliness.
• – However, be certain to balance your diet with foods containing antioxidants and other foods rich in healthy fats like Avocado, nuts, and fatty fish. These nutrients help in the regulation of oil production. Limit the consumption of foods that contain sugars and refined carbohydrates.

Additionally:

• – At night, you should remove shine with the help of oil blotting paper during the day.
• – In order to prevent this, I make sure to use products such as setting powder on areas of the face that may turn shiny.
• – Do not wash too frequently as this tends to stimulate oil production; skin will be left with none.
• – Concerning the people’s diet, they should drink much and eat different and healthy meals.
