by Joanne Millares January 12, 2018 How To's & DIY

There are many women who are oily. Some have even started from puberty. Various studies state that an estimated that up to 75% of people, ages 15-20, are affected by oily skin. 

Hormonal changes play a massive role in the production of oily skin, so you can even suffer from oiliness throughout your adult life as your body changes through time.

Here ware ways to take care of your oily skin:


Step 1: Cleanse
Cleanse your skin twice a day, morning and night, to relieve your skin of any pollutants, bacteria, and oil that creates a greasy face! 



Step 2: Tone
Use a toner after cleansing to balance out your skin’s pH and clear your skin of any oil or bacteria that has been left on the skin after cleansing.





Step 3: Exfoliate
Exfoliating 2-3 times a week is key to balancing out oily skin. Oily skin can be prone to having a thick layer of dead skin cells that build up on the surface which can cause an overproduction of oil and breakouts. Using a serum with salicylic acid or a fruit enzyme exfoliator is the best choice for oily skin.



Step 4: Moisturizer
Moisturizing your skin is the most important step to taking care of oily skin. Most people think that they don’t need moisturizer because their skin is already oily and that moisturizer will only make skin oilier. That is not true and actually it’s quite the opposite.

When you don’t moisturize, your skin is receiving signals that it needs moisture so it overcompensates and produces massive amounts of oil to keep skin supple. By moisturizing you can actually reduce your oiliness and keep your skin hydrated at a balanced level. Make sure to use a moisturizer day and night to keep your oil at bay.
