Frequently Asked Questions
What should a skincare routine for oily skin look like?
Morning: gel cleanser, toner, niacinamide serum, a lightweight moisturizer, and an oil-free SPF. Evening: cleanser, BHA 2-3 times a week, and a lightweight moisturizer. The key is to balance sebum, not strip the skin.
Should oily skin use a moisturizer?
Absolutely yes. When oily skin is left without enough moisture, it tends to produce more sebum to compensate. A gel or fluid-textured, non-comedogenic moisturizer doesn't increase shine — it can actually help balance it.
Which ingredients work well for oily skin?
Niacinamide may support sebum balance, salicylic acid may help with pore cleansing, and zinc may support a more matte appearance. It's best to avoid heavy oils and opt for water-based, non-comedogenic formulas.
Why does the face look constantly shiny?
Genetic predisposition, hormonal fluctuations, hot weather, and overly drying skincare are the most common reasons. Harsh cleansers can dry out the skin and trigger more sebum production — gentle cleansing and balancing skincare tend to give better results.
