Taking care of oily face.
Oily skin is annoying all by itself, but it can also
make you more prone to acne. Oily skin is the
result of your sebaceous glands being too active,
resulting in oily skin clogged pores, and
potentially more bacteria affecting your skin,
leading to skin conditions like blackheads and
spots. Proper facial cleansing is important for
controlling oily skin and reducing acne and can
reduce your needs for other acne treatments. Use
these tips when washing your face.
1.Don't Over-Cleanse: While oily skin can make
you want to scrub your face every five minutes
that can make the problem worse. In general,
wash your face just twice a day, once in the
morning and once in the evening. However, if you
have been sweating, wash your face gently
immediately.
2.Pick an Appropriate Cleanser: Choose a
cleanser that is non-abrasive, gentle, and alcohol-
free. Avoid cleansers with sodium lauryl sulphate.
This ingredient is too effective, and will leave your
skin producing even more oil to replace what was
taken away. Rinse your face thoroughly after
cleansing with tepid water - never hot!
3.Don't Be Rough: Be gentle with your skin.
Scrubbing will irritate the skin and can
exacerbate acne, making for worse acne scarring.
Instead, just use your cleanser and apply it with
your fingertips.
4.Take Care of Your Hair: Oily hair can affect
your acne, so shampoo your hair regularly as
well.
5.Don't Forget to Moisturise: It might seem
counter-intuitive, but even oily skin can become
dry, and if it is, that can lead to even more oil
production. You will still want to use a
moisturiser, but choose one that is light and oil-
free.
6.Be Aware of Your Skin: Oily skin on one part of
your face can exist in combination with dry
patches in other areas. If you have this kind of
combination skin, make sure to use appropriate
products for the different areas.
