Having an oily face may require a lot of makeup, but these makeup tips for oily skin
will help you manage oil on the skin.
A well-planned and complete daily skincare regimen is best for oily skin as it provides a good balance between hydration and oil control. Choose products that are free from artificial colors, fragrances, and alcohol which are known to break down natural lipids in the skin. Switch up your regimen with different moisturizers depending on the season or day-to-day weather conditions.
Apply sunscreen before going outside so that your face doesn’t get overexposed to sunlight which can cause premature aging. Another way you can reduce shine is by using blotting sheets throughout the day to absorb excess oils as they develop.
Things to avoid when applying makeup.
There are many products on the market that promise to help reduce shine and acne but they all work in a different way.
A good way of finding products with ingredients that will minimize oiliness is by checking the ingredients on the back of the bottle. Look for products with ingredients such as zinc, salicylic acid, glycolic acid, and vitamin A-C. These ingredients will help control sebum production and diminish acne breakouts.
Don’t use heavy base products underneath powder foundations as it tends to make skin look shiny.
Instead try using liquid or light powders on top of foundation to control oiliness when you’re out in the heat or when it’s windy outside.
Avoid wearing a lot of makeup especially in the morning as this will make skin look very shiny.
Baking soda is one of the most effective natural cleansers for oily skin as it absorbs excess oils and closes pores. Mix 1/2 tsp of baking soda with 1 tsp of water, apply on face and wash off after 20 minutes.
with the above guideline, you can have a great makeup look.
