How to improve oily skin? Besides oil control, what else can you do?

Oily skin is particularly prone to having a greasy complexion. The face has an active secretion of sebum, and the face is oily, shiny, and rough, somewhat like orange peel. Especially in the T-zone of the forehead, nose and chin, more oil is secreted, which makes acne and blackheads very likely to occur. However, compared to neutral and dry skin, it also has certain advantages.

According to surveys, oily skin is less likely to develop wrinkles, has a stronger tolerance to external stimuli, and does not look older than normal or dry skin.

The skin is oily from the beginning. If it is not improved and controlled, it will cause acne, pimples and other skin problems. At first, it may just be that the sebaceous glands are secreting more vigorously, producing a little more oil. Later, the capillaries are blocked and acne pops up one by one. If they are infected by bacteria, they will start to become inflamed, and then the acne will turn into pimples, and the situation will get out of control.

Oily skin is caused by dryness and lack of water in the human skin, which leads to skin damage. The body's self-repair and protection system will secrete oil to protect the skin. In order to fundamentally solve the problem of oil production, you need to pay attention to skin hydration and moisturizing, so as to fundamentally improve and protect damaged skin.

Balanced hydration, proper oil control

Oil control does not mean removing all oil, but keeping the oil and water secretions of normal skin in a balanced state. If you only control oil and ignore moisturizing, it will stimulate the sebaceous glands to secrete more oil.

Don’t wash your face too often

The more often you wash your skin, the drier and oilier it will become. If you wash too much, the oil secreted from your face will be washed away, which protects the skin. The drier the skin is, the more oil it will secrete. When the skin is extremely dehydrated and dry, it will become very oily, causing a serious imbalance of water and oil.

Use alcohol-free, refreshing lotion

To do a good job of cleaning to inhibit oil secretion, choose a toner that does not contain alcohol to control the oil on your face. If the toner contains alcohol, the alcohol will take away the heat from the skin surface when it evaporates on the face, shrinking the pores while producing more oil. This is something you must pay attention to.
