Oily skin, and how to control it
Oct
Having an oily skin type is exactly what it sounds like, the skin presents an excess of oil that produces a shiny and sometimes greasy appearance. Most people after identifying their skin type as oily tend to see it as an issue, but they shouldn’t. Like almost everything, oily skin has its pros and cons, some of the advantages of having oily skin are, elasticity and moisture, making the skin less prone to premature aging and sun damage. On the other side, this skin type has some difficulties with impurities, greasy t-zone (nose, forehead, and chin), and open pores that when not treated properly can become clogged and enlarged, letting blackheads and pimples appear.
We would like to recommend some natural masks and steps that will help to take care, control.
How to prevent oiliness on the skin?
Wash your skin regularly
Oily skin is characterized by open pores. With open pores, bacteria, sweat, and dirt are most likely to create acne and blackheads. We recommend washing your face twice a day with warm water to clean the pores and then with cold water to close them.
Moisturize the skin
While many people with oily skin fear that moisturizers will make their skin will look greasier, using the right moisturizers can actually help and benefit this skin type.
Exfoliate your skin weekly
Exfoliation will help eliminate dead cells that accumulate on the face and will help the pores to stay closed, controlling pimples and blackheads.
Natural mask for oily skin
It is common to read about masks that will help control oily skin, but some of them have short term benefits. Some facial masks may be beneficial for treating oily skin, like our Dead Sea Mud Mask with Dermatologically Tested Active Ingredients, which will help cleanse, purify, and restore the natural balance of the skin. Its natural minerals allow the necessary detoxification and oxygenation that the skin needs to eliminate dead cells and reduce pore size, preventing acne, blackheads, and eczema.
