save nowStruggling with a super-shiny T-zone? Oily skin is a common concern amongst our customers, but with the right skincare regime for oily skin, you can help to keep the shine at bay.
Oily skin is characterised by its shiny, thick, and sometimes dull texture. Oily skin is also prone to enlarged pores, pimples, and blackheads due to the increased amount of sebum caused by overactive sebaceous glands.
The culprits causing oily skin can be diverse, from genetics and diet, to hormones, pregnancy, even your makeup choices and stress levels. But the great news is that many of these factors can be tackled, and with the right treatment and product choices, and a good face care routine for oily skin, you can say goodbye to the shine and hello to a healthy, balanced glow.
When it comes to your oily skin care routine, it’s important to choose your ingredients wisely to avoid drying out your skin. Your oily skin care regimen should consist of:
Cleansing
Your oily face care routine starts with cleansing twice daily – once in the morning, and once in the evening. Choose a gentle, oil-free cleanser specially formulated for oily skin. Look for ingredients like salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or niacinamide to keep your pores clear and excess oil at bay.
Toning
For the perfect balance in your skin routine for oily skin, forget any of those harsh, alcohol-based toners that disrupt your skin's natural balance. Instead, embrace alcohol-free toners that are packed with hydrating heroes like hyaluronic acid or witch hazel. These kinds of toners refresh and balance your skin without stripping it of its essential oils that we want to keep.
Exfoliating
Gently exfoliate your skin 2-3 days a week to remove dead skin cells and prevent clogged pores, but don't overdo it, as this can irritate your skin. Look for chemical exfoliants with BHAs (salicylic acid) or AHAs (glycolic acid) over harsh physical scrubs. If your skin is feeling sensitive, skip this step until it feels healthier and calmer again.
Targeted Treatments
Spot treatments are one of the secret weapons of your skincare routine: oily skin edition. To tackle breakouts, use targeted spot treatments with benzoyl peroxide or sulfur to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
Face Masking
Draw out excess oil and impurities with a clay mask once a week to keep your skin feeling fresh and shine-free.
Moisturising
A good skin regimen for oily skin also needs a moisturiser - but make it oil-free! Look for formulas with hyaluronic acid or glycerin that hydrate your skin without clogging your pores. Apply in the morning and at night for optimal balance.
Sun Protection
Sunscreen is always an essential in any daytime skincare routine, and for oily skin, non-comedogenic sunscreen will be your skin’s bestie. Look for sunscreens labelled "oil-free" or "non-greasy" to avoid clogging your pores.
