Do you have an oily skin which leaves a greasy layer on your face? Is that annoying? Yes, it is. The oily skin makes you look sweaty and tired and is really difficult to manage. Skin produces sebum, more than required, which gives it an oily texture. The good news is oily skin is not a lifelong plague; a few minor changes in your grooming routine and you achieve the right skin balance. Here’s how
Mists
Facial mists are today’s toner. Conveniently available in spray forms, mist restores skin’s pH balance after cleansing and increases hydration levels of the face thus soaking up the excess grease. Herbal mists are especially good for men with large pores.
Cleanser
Using an ordinary soap can dry your skin and strip away the natural oils. Get an exfoliating face wash that poses no risk of over drying the skin – which is one of the reasons why face produces excess sebum. It’s always advisable for men who have a regular build-up of dirt and grime owing to their job, to err on the side of caution while using a face scrub. Use a face scrub no more than three times a week.
Lotion
A lotion is an instant fix for oil control, and is both, a short and long term solution. It absorbs grease, dries matte and reduces shine all day. Look out for a paraben-free cream which essentially acts as a preservative in beauty and men’s grooming products. What you need to look out for is actually silica that will help diffuse light, and will keep your skin relatively dry.
Masks
Masks do all the things that cleansers, moisturisers, toners and scrubs often need a little help with- meaning, getting rid of everything your body doesn’t need.
Oily skin can lead to unwanted pimples and breakouts, so getting rid of excess oils is vital for a healthy and charming appearance. Adhering to the above-mentioned things will help you get clear, healthy skin.
