Oily skin is a hassle to deal with - it can cause your makeup to migrate off your face, and lead to blackheads or pimples.\u00a0If you struggle daily with the annoyance of an oil-slicked face, you know how difficult it is to get\u00a0oily skin\u00a0under control. The heavy production of oil made by skin often leaves the skin looking and feeling greasy.<\/p>

Everyone who has to deal with oily skin<\/a> knows it\u2019s near impossible to tackle. No matter how many oil-busting products we buy<\/a>, the condition seems to only get worse. This can lead some of us down a road of desperation, buying dozens of oil-free products that guarantee to dry out our glands.<\/p>

What\u2019s the harm right?<\/p>

The truth is that your very efforts<\/a> to mop up the oil slick could be worsening the condition of your oily skin. While you can\u2019t stop oil production permanently, avoiding a few common mistakes can reduce the amount of oil your skin produces.<\/p>

Using a drying cleanser<\/span> <\/h2>

Cleansers that target oily skin are formulated with chemicals that dry out your skin in the process of stripping oil away. This can cause your skin to be dehydrated. To compensate for the lack of moisture, your skin then overcompensates by creating more oil, bringing you back to square one.<\/p>

Thinking you don\u2019t need moisturiser<\/span> <\/h2>

Many oily-skinned women are guilty of skipping out on moisturiser just because they think the oils hydrate their skin enough. Just like using a cleanser that dries out your skin, this leaves your skin vulnerable to dehydration. To combat this, look out for a water-based moisturiser that is oil-free and non-comedogenic.<\/p>

Thinking oils are bad for your skin<\/span> <\/h2>

\u00a0<\/strong>While searching for oil-free products is a good rule of thumb to follow, there is no need to shun all products that contain oils. Facial oils for example can provide your skin with the nourishment it needs and locks in moisture better than creams or gels.<\/p>


<\/strong>Over-powdering your face<\/span> <\/h2>

It\u2019s true, the easiest way to take down the mid-day shine is to matte your face by dusting on a little powder. However, don\u2019t get too overzealous with it! Powder adds texture to your face, which tends to highlight imperfections like pores and lines. To avoid the cakey look, take off the excess shine with blotting or tissue paper first before powdering only where you need it.<\/p>
