A cream for oily skin is primarily a cream that regulates sebum secretion. Its task is to quiet the sebaceous glands so that the skin does not shine during the day. An important role of this type of cosmetic is also to close enlarged pores through which sebum penetrates the surface of the body. This allows, among other things, to avoid the formation of blackheads.
A cream for oily skin will also work well on combination skin. It is worth using it primarily on areas that tend to shine during the day. This is usually the so-called T-zone, i.e. the vertical axis of the face (from the nose, through the mouth, to the chin) and the forehead. However, you should not apply this type of product to areas that tend to dry out, which is most often the cheeks and the area around the eyes.
How to use cream for problematic and oily skin?
Taking care of oily facial skin is not an easy task. First of all, it should be regularly cleansed and toned with products that soothe irritations. It is also worth using cosmetics or medical products with anti-inflammatory properties, which reduce the risk of pimples. This is especially important in the case of acne skin.
Those with oily skin intuitively reach for mattifying creams. This is absolutely advisable, but one should not forget about proper hydration. Using moisturizing creams is a key element of skin care, regardless of its type. If you do not like the feeling of a greasy film on your skin, use cosmetics with a gel consistency or light, quickly absorbing serums and sebum-regulating creams.
