When you have oily skin, moisturising
isn’t an easy thing to do. Without the right formula and ingredients, you can
easily cause mayhem to your skin.
Apart from excessive oil, you can also end up
with acne, blackheads and other skin issues. And none of these things feel and
look good.
For your skin type, it’s extremely important to
pay close attention to the prints. Don’t believe what brands say.
Instead, read product labels and understand
ingredients.
Pick a product that’s non comedogenic and
unscented. Fragrances can be irritating and they can make your acne worse.
Water-based moisturizers are great for your skin
type, too. They are not that occlusive and they are quickly absorbed by the
skin.
Plus, they won’t add more grease and oil.
As for application, it’s best to use your
moisturizer every single day. This way, your skin won’t be forced to produce
more oil to compensate for its “dryness”.
Apply your moisturizer right after cleansing,
preferably while it's damp. This way, you’ll be able to lock in moisture.
