Oily Skin
Characteristics:
Oily skin produces excess sebum, which leads to a shiny complexion, especially in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin). The skin often looks greasy, particularly after a few hours of washing.
Feel:
The skin may feel slick or greasy to the touch, and pores may appear enlarged due to the accumulation of oil.
Appearance:
Oily skin is prone to acne, blackheads, and clogged pores. It can look shiny, especially in the middle of the day, and is more likely to experience breakouts and blemishes.
Needs:
Oily skin benefits from oil-controlling and mattifying products, such as oil-free moisturizers and gentle exfoliants. Regular cleansing is key to managing oil.
