Control Oily Skin

Oily skin is caused by over productive sebaceous glands, and can usually be recognized a shine, sometimes referred to as a greasy look on the skin, a thicker skin texture, enlarged pores mainly in the T-Zone, but at times all over the entire face. Congestion such as whiteheads, blackheads and acne breakouts are considered fairly normal with oily skin, but is not always the case. Oily skin is sometimes thought to be a disadvantage due to the effects it can have on makeup, skin clarity and just the overall appearance of the skin. Help keep your skin mattified by applying a clay mask 2-3 times a week such as Dermalogica Skin Refining Masque. Also try applying an oil control gel or lotion as your daily moisturizer that will control oil production through out the day like NeoStrata Oil Control Gel.
