CAUSES

What causes oily skin?

Oily skin is caused by the excess production of sebum in the body. Sebum is an oily and slightly waxy substance produced by the body, to keep the skin moisturized and keep the body from losing too much water as well. Production of excess sebum is produced, leading to oily skin. Here are some factors that could lead to to excess sebum production:
Irritation

Irritation

Changes caused by factors like heat, chafing or humidity changes can cause an increase in your skin’s oil production.


Nutrition Habits

Nutrition & Habits

A poor diet will poorly impact your skin’s health. So will a poor lifestyle involving smoking and heavy drinking.


Genetics

Genetics

Born this way… sometimes this is true for people with oily skin. If oily skin runs in your family, it could mean you have inherited it too.


Overusing Skin Care Products

Over using skincare products

Too much of a good thing can be a bad thing and this applies to skincare too. Cleansing or exfoliating the skin too hard or too abrasively can cause irritation to the skin, causing it to react with over production of sebum and thus resulting into oily skin.


Stress

Stress

Your body responds to stress by releasing extra androgen hormones, which means more sebum (oil) is pumped to the surface of your skin.


Hormonal Changes

Hormonal Changes

Androgen hormones can also increase due to menstruation, pregnancy, and other hormonal changes.


Medication

Medication

Medication that affects your hormones could increase oil production in your skin. While medication that causes dehydration can cause your skin to overcompensate for the moisture loss through oil production.


ROUTINE

Vanishing Cream

Step 2: Moisturize

Moisturising is a crucial step in the oily skin routine. Applying moisturiser reduces imperfections, evens your skin tone and reinforces your skin's natural barrier. A moisturiser with SPF is always a good option when thinking about skincare for oily skin, since it leaves out the need to apply heavy sunscreens or lotions.

Simply massage your moisturising cream to your face in small upward circles, being extra careful with the delicate areas around your eyes.
