Oily Skin | Which Moisturizer Will Suit Your Skin?

 

There are 5 main types of skin - dry, normal, oily, combination and sensitive. In Asian countries like ours, oily skin is the most common. And women with oily skin have a lot of questions about their skin. The common question is, which moisturizer is better for oily skin? Even after getting the answer, more questions remain. One of them is, will you suit me? Thousands of such questions revolve around our minds, right?

"That oily skin, he uses such a moisturizer. Has worked well on her skin. That means it will be good for me too. I bought it. ”- I have done this nonsense several times in my life. And the result is zero. And I got a gift with Pimple. Let me tell you, my skin type is also oily.

 

How to understand your oily skin?

Well, how about a little research before you know which moisturizer is better? Do the research rather a little later. Skin oily or should be tested-

1.When you wake up in the morning, try to clean your facial skin with your hands. If the whole face looks oily, then understand that your skin type is oily.

 

2.You can do another test. Clean the face with face wash and do not apply any toner or moisturizer on the face for 3-4 hours. Keep your face empty. Take a blotting paper or tissue paper after 3-4 hours. Press gently on the face with it. If you see that more or less oil has come into the blotting paper by pressing on every part of the face, then you will understand that your skin is oily.

I say again, check not only the 'T zone' but also the whole face. If you only see oil in the T zone, you have combination skin.

What are the ingredients in moisturizer?

I understood whether the skin type is oily or not. This time let's come to moisturizer. There are various types of moisturizers in the market.

Choosing the perfect moisturizer for you is also a challenge. So it is a must to pay attention to the ingredients of the moisturizer. Because, it is important to know whether the ingredients with which the moisturizer is made are good for oily skin. It will be to your advantage to choose the perfect moisturizer. So, let's talk a little about the ingredients.

1. Glycolic acid

Glycolic acid as an ingredient is called the ‘power house’ of oily skin. Being in a moisturizer reduces the production of excess oil on the skin, prevents pores from closing and protects the skin from breakouts.

2. Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid works quite well for oily skin. It is quite lightweight. If it is in the moisturizer, it controls the oil of the skin as well as prevents the pores from closing, making the skin soft and smooth.

3. Dimethicone

Dimethicone works simultaneously with oil control and moisturizing. It controls the extra shine of the skin.

These ingredients are good for oily skin owners if they are in moisturizers. Also lactic acid, salicylic acid etc. are very good for oily skin. But keep in mind a few more things. Many people with oily skin have acne. And so taking care of this skin is not an easy task.

 

Take care before buying oily skin moisturizer

Make it lightweight, have SPF in it and always avoid oil based, thick, creamy moisturizers. Try using a gel or light lotion based moisturizer. To avoid allergies or rashes, you can buy a moisturizer by testing it by hand. Especially those who have problems with sensitivity.
