Skin Care For Oily Skin: A Complete and Effective Routine
We know that finding skin care for oily skin can be confusing, especially when so many products claim to be “good for oily skin” but really aren't.
So today, we're going to break down exactly what your perfect skin care routine should look like if you have oily skin (including products!).
Cleanse & Exfoliate
The first step in good skin care for oily skin is cleansing and exfoliating your face. You should wash your face twice daily using warm water and a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and makeup.
Try to find a cleanser that works well for your specific skin type; this will ensure that it won't dry out your skin or leave behind residue after use.
Next, make sure to exfoliate twice a week to remove oil and dead skin cells that can clog your pores and lead to breakouts.
Finding a good cleanser and a good exfoliator can be a difficult process. At Aiona Alive, we’ve made this decision easier by creating an award-winning exfoliating cleanser that can be used on any skin type.
Our E-Citrus Exfoliating Cleanser penetrates deep into your skin to remove blackheads and makeup. The lather easily washes off without residue. Another benefit is this exfoliating cleanser will last you a year if you use it twice a day!
Anti-Oxidant
Having a high sebum output (in other words: having oily skin) can increase lipid peroxidation. This means that more sebum can be turned into free radicals which cause acne and premature aging.
The good news is that this can be prevented by using an anti-oxidant in the form of a Vitamin C serum. The antioxidants effectively block the effect of lipid peroxidation and prevent wrinkles and acne.
At Aiona Alive, we made Vitamin C even better by combining it with peptides and amino acids into one powerful serum.
Vitamin C and peptides enhance each other's collagen-producing effects and work together to fight wrinkles. Within a few days, not only will the Vitamin C prevent acne in oily skin, but you’ll also notice a drastic improvement in your skin’s elasticity and texture.
Moisturize
All skin types need to moisturize. However, if you have oily skin, you must be careful about the type of moisturizer you use. Try to find a moisturizer that is
- Oil-free
- Water-based
- Lightweight
We know it’s hard to find skin care for oily skin with all these criteria, so we created our own moisturizer. Our E-Sensual Moisturizer is a lightweight, all-natural formula that easily absorbs into your skin to create a breathable moisture mask.
To Summarize
If you have oily skin, one of the best things you can do is create a skincare routine that works specifically for your skin type. Good skin care for oily skin can not only reduce visible shine on your face, but it can also minimize breakouts and prevent wrinkles.
