Chronically oily skin has a lot of attached problems, such as pimples and blemishes, as well as a sensation of discomfort. The oil producing sebaceous glands are overactive and produce more oil than the facial skin tissue needs. The skin receives a greasy shine while pores are enlarged. There are several causes for oily skin: Heredity, Diet, Hormone levels, Pregnancy, Birth control pills, Cosmetics, Humidity and hot weather. Teenagers are often the ones to exhibit the more severe oily skin problems, as the hormonal shifts trigger excessive oil secretions, however some people will have oily skin throughout there adult life.
The flow of sebum or oil increases during adolescence but is gradually diminished with age. Hormonal imbalances can also upset the oil balance during pregnancy and menopause when the sebaceous glands are prone to increase their oil production.
How to take care of oily skin
Preventing the pores from getting clogged is essential for those that have an oily skin type. Although this type of skin has some negative effects, like the ones mentioned above, it also helps the skin stay younger and wrinkle free for a longer period of time. While taking care of your facial skin, try to avoid products that create a flaky looking skin or those that are too abrasive in nature. Such products might have the reverse result you are looking for and they can cause a reaction known as reactive seborrhea - oil glands work overtime to compensate for the loss of natural oils.
Products that dehydrate your skin are also not recommended as they shrink the facial skin and increase chances of pore clogging. Using oil-free moisturizers will maintain a healthier skin while allowing the pores to breathe properly. Cleaning your face is important, but do not go overboard – washing your face two or three times each day is sufficient.
Adapt your diet to your skin type
Here are a few food items that you should avoid: sugar, chocolate, and junk food, cooking oils and soft drinks. Here are a few natural ingredients that are indicated for oily skin types: Bergamot, Cypress, Frankincense, Geranium, Juniper, Lavender, Lemon, Sage, Cedar wood. Aloe vera gel is also a good topical cosmetic treatment while Burdock root, chamomile, horsetail, oat straw, and thyme nourish the skin.
Other herbal treatments and food supplements will also help reduce the excessive oil production and will help you maintain a clear and healthy facial skin.
