Oily skin and shine
Oily skin still needs gentle care: harsh washing and skipping moisturizer can backfire.
Ingredients that help
- Salicylic, glycolic, and lactic acids can reduce oiliness, but can be harsh: cut back if your skin gets irritated
- Niacinamide, zinc, and clays are also widely used to control shine
What dermatologists recommend
- Wash up to twice a day and after sweating with a gentle foaming cleanser, without scrubbing.
- Choose products labeled oil-free and non-comedogenic, including makeup.
- Still moisturize, ideally with a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher moisturizer.
- Blot oil by pressing blotting paper on your face, rather than rubbing.
