Oily skin is probably the most problematic: choosing the right products so that there is no greasiness and shine, and at the same time not overdrying it, is not an easy task. We talk about the best, according to Healthy-Food, products for oily skin from Garnier, from the line with the eloquent name “Clear Skin”.
How to take care of oily skin
Purification
This is one of the main stages of skin care, prone to oily, acne and pimples. Everything matters, starting with the temperature of the water: it should be warm, but not hot, so as not to stimulate the activity of the sebaceous glands. If oily skin is also sensitive, it is better to abandon washing with running water altogether and switch to thermal water. To find out your ideal skin cleansing regimen, take our quiz.
For cleansing, use soft foams, lotions and gels with a neutral pH and anti-inflammatory and matting (salicylic acid, zinc and others) components in the composition. But with aggressive cleansing, it’s better to be careful: it can dry out the skin, disrupt the hydrolipid balance and, as a result, provoke even more sebum production.
1-2 times a week, do a light peeling scrub or cleanse the skin with mineral masks for oily and problem skin, film masks. It is good if they contain coal, clay and fruit acids. But keep in mind that the latter can increase sensitivity to ultraviolet light, so it is very important to use them in conjunction with sunscreen.
humidification
It has long been dispelled the myth that oily skin does not need moisture. More as needed! Without life-giving moisture, it will become even more problematic. Just give preference to products with a light, weightless texture – fluids, emulsions, water-based gels.
Cream with what composition is considered the most effective? Oily skin will definitely like hyaluronic acid – it is able to retain moisture in the skin. And also – extracts of seaweed, chamomile, aloe. The main thing is that the packaging should be marked: non-comedogenic or suitable for oily and problem skin.
Fighting imperfections
Just cleansers and moisturizers are not enough. Therefore, it is worth adding matting products to the day care program – lotion, tonic, serum, all with the same salicylic acid, lipohydroxy acids, zinc, clay, licorice, sage, chestnut extracts, juniper and cypress essential oils. As well as SOS-means against imperfections – they are applied pointwise and act aimingly.
