Sebaceous glands become overactive and produce too much sebum, leading to shiny, greasy-looking faces and skin conditions like acne, blackheads and whiteheads, enlarged or clogged pores etc. Oily skin may help get through tough times – however those with extremely oily skin may develop comedones (skin lumps) due to pollution and grime exposure – but the solution for that lies within adhering to some easy skin care and beauty advice for oily skin types.

As soon as you become aware that having oily skin can bring advantages, be mindful that oil traps moisture within the epidermis – the outermost layer of your skin. As such, oily skin tends to retain more hydration, decreasing wrinkles and other indications of aging significantly.

Below Are 4 Oily Skin Tips To Keep Your Beauty at its Peak:

1. Always Consider Moisturizer

Contrary to popular belief, oily skin needs moisture-rich moisturizers in order to remain hydrated and moisturised. Otherwise, sebaceous glands will produce even more oil to compensate for what moisture has been lost through being stripped away by stripping. Select a water-based, non-comedogenic moisturizer that is free from oils for best results.

2. Cleansing

Maintaining cleanliness on an ongoing basis is one of the key ways of controlling excess oil production. In order to remove all accumulated dirt and oil that causes clogged pores, acne, etc., washing twice or three times per day with gel- or foam-based cleansers that contain oil-free cleansers can be very helpful for oily skin types; medicated soaps can be helpful too; harsh methods can dehydrate skin further leading to the sebaceous glands producing even more sebum; look for products containing honey, neem turmeric tea tree oil salicylic acid or honey within their formulation.

3. Don’t Skipp Wearing Sunscreen

Many ladies with oily skin avoid sunscreen out of fear it will make them look greasy; but sun exposure leads to brown patches, pigmentation and freckles – so select a sunscreen with a gel base, which will leave your face matte while providing ample sun protection. Also avoid processed and sugary meals; drink lots of water to flush out toxins; avoid junk food; consume at least one fruit daily as well as incorporate green-leaved vegetables in your diet; these measures should all help control how much oil your skin produces.

4. Oily Skin Needs Scrubbing

Exfoliating oily skin once or twice weekly is key. Excess sebum production causes dead skin cells to accumulate on its surface, potentially leading to breakouts, acne, whiteheads, blackheads and dull-looking skin. Exfoliation can remove this debris as well as refresh its surface – but remember, be gentle when exfoliating with scrubs as this could irritate sensitive skin!
