Oily skin care
To start the discussion on oily skin care, it's imperative to
first understand the cause behind oily skin. Put simply, oily
skin is a result of excessive production of sebum (an oily
substance that is naturally produced by skin). As is known to
everyone, excess of everything is bad; so excessive sebum is bad
too. It leads to clogging of skin pores, resulting in
accumulation of dead cells and hence formation of pimples/acne.
Moreover, oily skin spoils your looks too. So, 'oily skin care'
is as important as the 'skin care' for other types of skin.
The basic aim of 'oily skin care' is the removal of excessive
sebum or oil from the skin. However, oily skin care procedures
should not lead to complete removal of oil. 'Oily skin care'
starts with the use of a cleanser. However, not all cleansers
will work. You need a cleanser which contains salicylic acid
i.e. a beta-hydroxy acid that retards the rate of sebum
production. Cleansing should be done twice a day (and even more
in hot and humid conditions).
Most of the oily skin care products are oil-free; however, it is
always good to check the ingredients of the product, before you
actually buy it. This is especially important if a product is
marked as 'suitable for all skin types', instead of 'oily skin
care product'. 'Oily skin care' is also dependent on the degree
of oiliness, if you aren't too oily, so some of these 'suitable
for all'- type of
products might be work for you too. For
extremely oily skin, only oily skin care products are suitable.
Your oily skin care routine can include an alcohol based toner
(for an extremely oily skin). This can be the second step in
your oily skin care routine i.e. just after cleansing. However,
excessive toning can harm your skin.
The next step in your oily skin care routine can be a mild
moisturiser. Again, the degree of oiliness of your skin will
determine whether you need to include this in your oily skin
care routine. If you do decide to include a moisturiser, be sure
to use one that is oil-free, wax-free and lipid-free. You could
also use a clay mask (say once a week) as an oily skin care
measure.
As far as the oily skin care products go, you might need to try
out a few before you arrive at the one that is really suitable
for your skin.
In case these measures don't give you the desired result,
consult a good dermatologist for advice. He could prescribe
stronger oily skin care products like vitamin A creams,
retinoids, sulphur creams etc , which can help counter the
problems of oily skin.
