The Skincare Guide for Oily Skin: Morning, Day and Night
If you have oily skin, you know that keeping your complexion under control can feel like a constant battle against your sebaceous glands. Luckily, a few handy tricks can help you perfect your skincare routine and leave you feeling fresh and oil-free throughout the day.
Begin the Morning with Moisture
Start out by washing your face with a gentle foaming cleanser. Then exfoliate to rid your skin of dead cells and unclog your pores. A product with salicylic acid is a good choice, as its oil-soluble active ingredient can penetrate the layer of sebum on your skin to strip away buildup.
You may think that because your skin is so oily, you don’t need to add any excess moisture. But the truth is that drying out your skin kicks it into panic mode, causing it to produce even more oil! The trick here is to use a product that hydrates your skin without weighing it down. A gentle hydrating spray will keep you moisturized throughout the day without exposing your skin to thick, pore-clogging cream or harsh ingredients that could trigger more oil production.
Replenish Your Skin as You Sleep
In the evening, cleanse again to rid your face of the day’s makeup and dirt. Then apply a light, moisturizing serum to replenish your skin overnight and leave it fresh and ready for the next day.
Hyaluronic acid is one of the most effective moisturizing ingredients out there and an excellent choice for all skin types. When using a serum containing hyaluronic acid for oily skin, make sure to choose a pure formula that contains as few additives as possible. This prevents your skin from becoming irritated and producing oil as a defense.
