Oily & Blemish-Prone Skin | Chrissie

Oily skin produces more sebum than it needs: the consequences are shine that reappears a few hours after cleansing, more visible pores, especially in the T-zone, and a greater tendency to blemishes.

In this selection you will find cleansers, serums and gel creams formulated to rebalance sebum production and mattify without stripping. The key actives are niacinamide, which works on the appearance of pores and on shine, and salicylic acid, which acts inside the pore.

The most common mistake is using overly degreasing products: the skin responds by producing even more sebum. Better a gentle cleanse and a light cream that is nonetheless there, because oily skin needs hydration too.
