Fat Skin: No more excess Sebum

Oily skin can be very bothersome. It is a type of skin that becomes shiny quickly, leaving an unpleasant sensation on the face. The oiliness that appears on the surface layers of the skin is related to excessive sebum production.

To counter this phenomenon, specific solutions can be adopted that help rebalance the production of sebum by the skin.

From the use of gentle cleansers to the application of sebum-normalizing creams, let's see together what can be done to take care of oily skin.

Use gentle detergents.

Oily skin undoubtedly needs thorough cleansing and cleaning. Eliminating the oiliness of the skin is indeed important to get rid of that annoying feeling that can also lead to the appearance of pimples and impurities. Contrary to what one might commonly imagine, however, excess sebum should only be fought with gentle cleansers. The choice of overly aggressive products risks achieving a counterproductive result.

Apply a clay-based mask.

Clay is an ingredient that is increasingly present in dermocosmetic treatments. Its properties are indeed numerous, and its action against oily skin is truly effective. Clay, thanks to its purifying and detoxifying action, is able to counteract the small impurities that often accompany oily skin. Furthermore, excess sebum is countered thanks to its balancing and mineralizing properties, linked to the high content of salts, ions, and metals present within it.

Astringent lotion for pores

As we mentioned a little while ago, oily skin often presents itself as rich in imperfections. To counteract the onset of these unsightly elements, once a week one might consider indulging in a steam treatment. The latter helps to open the pores, simplifying the cleaning of the skin. This operation should always be completed with the application of a gentle yet powerful toner, to ensure that the pores tighten and prevent the entry of external pollutants present in the air, makeup residues, and dirt.

Application of a light sebo-normalizing cream

The choice of a daily cream for oily skin should focus on something not too heavy, but rather delicate and complete. Contrary to what one might commonly think, oily skin also needs hydration. Therefore, the right choice is a lightweight cream that can deeply hydrate but also has antibacterial and astringent action for the pores.
