Oil Control – The First Step to Healthy Skin
Overactive sebaceous glands are the primary cause of oily skin. When excess oil is not properly cleansed, it combines with dead skin cells, dirt, and bacteria, leading to clogged pores and acne. Many believe that frequent face washing will reduce oiliness, but this strips the skin of its natural moisture, triggering even more oil production.

Limit face washing to 2-3 times daily—morning, after sweating, or before bed. Opt for a gentle, alcohol-free, low-foam cleanser to avoid dryness. Follow with an alcohol-free toner to balance pH, tighten pores, and prep for hydration.
Sun protection is non-negotiable. Avoid oily sunscreens; choose oil-free, gel-based formulas with sebum control for optimal protection without greasiness.
Proper Hydration to Reduce Oil Production
A common myth is that oily skin doesn’t need moisture. Dehydration triggers excess oil, worsening shine. Hydration is essential for oil control.
Select lightweight gels or lotions with hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or niacinamide to hydrate, regulate sebum, and soften skin. Proper hydration reduces oiliness, prevents premature aging, and soothes irritation from strong oil-control products.
Instead of relying on blotting papers or astringent toners, maintain a thin layer of moisturizer to balance oil and water levels naturally.

Lifestyle Habits for Oily Skin Improvement
Combining proper skincare with healthy habits visibly improves oily, acne-prone skin: reduced shine, refined pores, and fewer breakouts.
