Makeup and Skincare Tips for oily skin
I myself have oily skin and I know how my face can get in this weather. Very frustrating. Either we look great at 8am -
then look a hot mess by 1pm, or it is just hopeless to find a product that works for us.
Well I’m here with some tips and products to help you looking gorgeous throughout the day in this miserable weather :)
Skin care routine:
DO use WARM water to wash your face
DO use an oil-free moisturizer (see recommended products below)
DO use pure soap (no artificial additives)
DO use a WATER-BASED toner (restores skin’s PH – see blow)
DO use products only designed for oil skin.
DO drink plenty of water
DON’T over wash your face. 2-3 times is fine, but anything more will over dry you skin. This can cause you glands to produce more oil.
Your skin has a natural PH balance of 5.5. Look for products that have roughly the same PH balance. Anything more (around 10+) can seriously irritate you skin.
