What is the cause of oily T-zone and blackheads?

The T-zone is prone to acne and oiliness, so the skin needs to be well cared for. So what is the reason for oiliness and blackheads in the T-zone? What should I do if my T-zone is oily and has blackheads?

What is the reason for oily T-zone and blackheads?

Before solving the problem, let's first roughly figure out the cause of the problem. Why is the T-zone oily and has blackheads? First of all, the T-zone itself is a part that is prone to oiliness. The T-zone has many pores and sweat glands, so it produces more oil. Secondly, why are there blackheads? Blackheads are actually the result of not cleaning the skin in time when it is oily. Therefore, as long as you solve the problem of oily T-zone, blackheads will naturally not bother you.

What to do if the T-zone is oily and has blackheads

1. First of all, you should know that it is impossible for the T-zone not to produce oil. It is always the most oily part of the face. However, we can reduce its oil production. The most direct way is to clean the skin. The reason why there are blackheads in the T-zone is that after the skin produces oil, it is not cleaned in time, resulting in oxidation reaction of the oil exposed outside the skin, thus producing blackheads. Therefore, if your T-zone is prone to oiliness, it is best to use a facial cleanser once in the morning and once in the evening, preferably an oil-control type. You should always carry oil-absorbing paper with you. When your skin produces too much oil, use the oil-absorbing paper to absorb the oil to prevent the oil from oxidizing or clogging the pores.

2. Strengthen hydration. When the skin releases more oil, it means that there is a serious imbalance of water and oil in the skin, and it is dry inside and oily outside. Therefore, by strengthening hydration, the production of oil can be well controlled. Hydration is both internal and external. Hydration from the inside includes drinking more water, eating more fruits and vegetables, and eating more foods high in water and vitamins; hydration from the outside includes using hydrating skin care products, hydrating masks, hydrating essences, etc.

3. Shrink pores. A big reason for oily T-zone and blackheads is enlarged pores. This is actually a vicious cycle. When the T-zone is oily, it is not cleaned in time, causing oil to clog the pores, making the pores enlarged and starting to grow blackheads. The larger the pores, the more oil is produced and the more blackheads there will be. Therefore, as long as the pores are reduced, the amount of oil production will also be reduced. In daily life, after cleansing, you can apply a toner with the effect of shrinking pores for 5 minutes, or make a homemade mask to shrink pores. This way you only need to apply it on the T-zone area, which is also very convenient.

4. Recommend flour mask to shrink pores

Materials: barley flour, water, mask stick, mask brush. Method: Take an appropriate amount of barley flour and put it into a clean container. Note that if you only apply it to the T-zone, put a little flour. Add an appropriate amount of clean water to the flour, stirring with a mask stick while adding. After the flour becomes a paste, you can use a mask brush to apply the mask to the T-zone, wait for 10-15 minutes, and then wash it off with clean water. Efficacy: Flour is rich in protein and is edible, so it has little irritation to the skin. Flour becomes firm when it comes into contact with water, so it has a good astringent effect and can effectively shrink pores and tighten the skin.

5. It is recommended to wash your face with lemon slices to shrink pores

Ingredients: a slice of fresh lemon, warm water at about 30 degrees. Method: Wash your face with warm water at about 30 degrees. Add a slice of fresh lemon to the warm water. Squeeze the lemon with your hands to help the lemon water come out. After squeezing, wash your face normally. Efficacy: Lemon is rich in vitamins and amino acids. Vitamins A, C, and E have many functions such as whitening, freckle removal, and anti-aging. The citric acid contained in lemon also has a cleansing effect. It can remove skin oil and shrink pores.
