Oily skin is a very common skin condition, and many people have this problem. It's normal to sweat when it's hot, and it can be uncomfortable if your face is oily. So let’s take a look at the causes of oily skin.

Causes of oily skin

1. Irregular work and rest.

Will your skin feel oily after playing all night? If you don't get enough sleep or live an irregular life, your autonomic nervous system will be imbalanced, leading to disruption of hormone balance and excessive oil secretion.

2. Intake of high-fat and high-calorie foods

As we all know, eating fried foods with high fat content is easy to produce oil. Especially for people with strong metabolism, because the function of expelling fat from the body is very strong, the secretion of oil will be stronger.

3. Skin quality is hereditary

Indeed, skin quality is hereditary. Both parents have oily skin, so there is a good chance that you also have oily skin. In addition, parents, siblings who have lived under the same eating habits for a long time often have similar skin types. Improper skin care leads to abnormal oil secretion.

How to protect your skin from oiliness?

1. Choose a mild facial cleanser with strong cleaning power.

The skin produces too much oil. Many girls choose to use facial cleansers with rich foam, thinking that this can better help the skin remove oil. Actually this is wrong. Foaming facial cleansers can make your skin rougher and drier.

2. Frozen moisturizing spray

Most girls’ skin is oily because of the imbalance of water and oil. Of course, girls can use oil-absorbing paper, but oil-absorbing paper can only absorb oil on the surface of the skin and cannot bring nutrients to the skin. It's best to moisturize your skin with a moisturizing spray. Carry the moisturizing spray in your bag and spray it anytime and anywhere to add a lot of moisture to your skin.

3. Use moisturizing toner.

Most girls have the habit of using astringent. Girls need to use moisturizing toner instead of astringent water to remove the greasiness of facial skin. It is said that astringent water is rich in alcohol, which can help inhibit oil secretion and shrink pores. But in summer, because of the high temperature, alcohol will also accelerate the evaporation of water on the skin surface, causing an imbalance of water and oil on the skin surface and making the skin more greasy.

4. Use moisturizing lotion.

Are you still using facial cream? You know, although facial cream is moisturizing, it is more suitable for autumn and winter, so use moisturizing lotion instead! Girls often need to stay in air-conditioned rooms, and their skin is easily dehydrated, causing it to appear shiny.
