Oily skin? Tips to improve your skin!
Oily skin requires special care and protection in order to look healthy and radiant. Daily care and hydration play an important role in oily skin care as it is the only solution to the problem.
Oily skin: What is the cause?
Oily skin is characterised by the excessive production of sebum by the sebaceous glands. The sebaceous glands are located under the pores of the skin and their main function is to maintain the health and hydration of the face. When the glands are too active, more sebum is produced than normal resulting in the skin secreting more oil.
How do we know that a skin is oily?
The oiliness of the skin is perceived by the shine that our skin presents. This is the first symptom with which it appears. If not treated immediately then there is a risk of clogging the pores of the skin resulting in black annoying and unsightly spots mainly on the nose, chin and forehead. This type of skin appears, mainly in adolescence but also at a later age where the presence of acne pimples makes the problem even bigger.
How is oily skin treated?
The main goal of treating an oily skin is to minimise the excessive sebum production, which is responsible for all the unpleasant marks on the surface of our skin. For this purpose, it is important to use appropriate cleaning and makeup products.
Important tips for dealing with oiliness:
- Face wash morning and evening
- Selection of products without oil
- Use a mild and sparkling soap to wash your face
- Use cleaners without oil and alcohol
- Apply moisturiser on a daily basis
- Use sunscreen daily and especially during the summer months
- Choice of water-based makeup without oil
