Oily skin
Skincare for oily skin helps keep shine under control without drying out your skin. With oily skin, the sebaceous glands produce more oil than needed, so your face quickly looks shiny and your pores are more visible. Cleansing too harshly often makes it worse: your skin then responds with even more oil. That is why you should choose mild, lightweight products.
Skincare for oily skin
Cleansing without drying
A gel cleanser with a low pH is ideal for everyday use. The Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser by COSRX leaves your skin clean yet supple. If you also have clogged pores, alternate with the Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser by COSRX, which contains salicylic acid (BHA).
Serum for oily skin
A watery serum hydrates without a greasy film. The Glow Serum Propolis + Niacinamide by Beauty of Joseon combines propolis with niacinamide, known for a more matte look and less visible pores. Apply it after your toner, for example the Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner by Anua.
Moisturiser for oily skin: yes, you need it
Many people with oily skin skip moisturiser, but dehydrated oily skin actually gets shinier. Choose a gel cream or a light lotion and use a sunscreen with a matte finish during the day. If only your T-zone shines, also read our tips for combination skin. If pores are your main concern, check out large pores.
