Hi beauties,
So you have oily skin, you are prone to acne, blackheads and spots as well?
Your skin probably looks shiny and thick.
Just as with any skin type, taking certain precautions and special care can help reduce skin problems.
What is the best solution for it? :(
I will help you on few step to care of oily skin.
Let's jump into it.
- First what you need to do is to wash your face twice a day. once in the morning and once before bed. Washing more often can strip your skin of all the natural moisturizers and increase oil production. The only time you should wash your face more than twice a day is if you have been perspiring.
- Second is to use a gentle cleanser. If you need something stronger, look for ingredients specifically made for oily skin and acne, such as benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or beta-hydroxy acid. Although usually marketed
for acne, these products work well for oily skin too.
- Third if you are experimenting with different cleansers to find one that works for you, keep a notebook and write down the date, what cleanser you are using and keep track of how your skin looks after a few weeks. If you notice irritation, write that down so you know not to try that cleanser again. This is the best step of ALL TIME.
- Fourth is not to scrub your face as this can stimulate oil production.
- Fifth if you use a toner, use it only on areas that are oily, such as your T zone are. If you have areas that aren't oily, toners can create dry patches. Remember, Toner can create dry patches in the area that aren't oily.
- Sixth if you have oil build up in between facial washing, use a medicated pad or blotting paper to remove excess oil. These products have the added benefit of being portable, allowing you to freshen up your face no matter where you are. Some people might not know what is Blotting paper? It is a paper that can take off all of your oil excess. You can get them Online or Pharmacy store.
- Seventh is oily skin still needs to be moisturized, but be careful to choose the right moisturizer. Look for water based or oil-free moisturizers and stay away from creams and heavy moisturizers because after sometime your face will get more oil. Oil from the moisturizer and from the face.
- Eighth is to exfoliate once a week to help loosen and remove dirt and oil in your pores.
- Ninth is no matter how tempted, don’t pick, pop or squeeze pimples as it can cause scarring and leave red spots on your face.
NOTE : Having oily skin does have some benefits. Those with oily skin tend to age slower.
Oily skin tends to wrinkle less than those with dry or normal skin.
Happy now? :)
