Did you know oily skin still needs moisture?

Most people actually dehydrate the skin when trying to combat oiliness. This starts a vicious cycle because facial skin will over-compensate by producing more oil. This leads to breakouts and clogged pores.

If you suffer from oily skin only, choose products that state “oil-free” in the packaging and use product once a day or every other day. If you are prone to breakouts choose oil- free products or products that contain salicylic acid. This acid will help to gently exfoliate the top layer of skin on a daily basis. Exfoliation helps to keep the oil levels balanced.

Listed below are products appropriate for A.M. or P.M use.
