HOW TO KEEP OILY SKIN HEALTHY
Why do we have oily skin?
Oily skin is the result of a disproportionate production of sebum. Sebum tends to clog the pores and prevent your skin from breathing. This disordered mechanism subsequently causes various things such as the appearance of pimples and blackheads, excessive shine and a feeling of thickness on the face. You may be wondering what is at the origin of this disorder of the epidermis? It can be caused by several factors.
Internal causes
At first, the causes of excess sebum can be internal. You should know that during adolescence, and especially in women, the imbalance of hormones is an inevitable process. Starting at around age 12 these hormonal imbalances can be responsible for many problems such as oily skin and acne. Despite popular belief, this problem can persist into adulthood. Note also that over-stimulation of the sebaceous glands can also be caused by stress and anxiety.
External causes
Pollution, summer heat, or humidity, all upset the functioning of our epidermis. This can be enough to trigger the appearance of oily and dehydrated skin.
How do we moisturize oily skin?
Many people think that oily skin does not need to be hydrated. However, water should not be confused with fat. Oily skin can be completely dehydrated. Hydration step with serums is a must in any oily skincare routine such as creams, gel
How to Clean oily skin
Above all, always cleanse your facial skin gently. For this, it is recommended to avoid aggressive products such as peeling. These can leave you with a feeling of great cleanliness, before causing the appearance of new imperfections.
