Skincare for oily skin is all about balance, purifying any toxins and debris, while also clarifying and detoxing to reduce and prevent breakouts, blackheads, whiteheads, and any other acne or blemishes. Imbalances in the skin’s microbiome can contribute to the development of acne, while excessive sebum production can create an environment where acne-causing bacteria can thrive.
Salicylic acid—a BHA (beta hydroxy acid) is the go-to ingredient in most oily skincare products for its antibacterial, acne-fighting properties. Add this in a serum or a clarifying gel moisturizer for clinically proven acne-fighting, oil-balancing results. Charcoal and kaolin clay make for a great skin detox, purifying and exfoliating, while niacinamide is an essential for cleaning out and shrinking the appearance of pores, as well as fine lines and wrinkles.
For your oily skincare routine, starting and ending your day with a good oil-controlling cleanse to remove any excess dirt, toxins, pollution, or free radical buildup that can lead to acne is essential, as is following up with a smoothing, balancing serum and microbiome-balancing moisturizer. SPF is vital for every skin type and tone, so look to oil-free, physical sunscreens containing zinc oxide or titanium dioxide as these offer robust sun protection without blocking pores or causing further breakouts.
