Washing for oily skin: gels, foams, scrubs

Care for oily skin should be particularly careful, since it is this type that is prone to acne, clogged pores and various inflammations. But if peeling and masks are done not more often than once a week, then there is another way of purification, which we use every day.

It's about washing. And owners of this type of skin need to treat it with special attention.

Key recommendations:

1. It should not be washed more than twice a day. Excessive exposure to water and special agents only further irritates the skin and leads to the occurrence of various eruptions.
2. The water should not be too hot, since the elevated temperature only contributes to a more active work of the sebaceous glands. Ideally, you need to wash yourself with cool water, and once a week you can carry out contrasting procedures, alternating warm and cold water.
3. About once every ten days, do a mild peeling. You can buy a special product in the store, but the task will cope with the usual kitchen salt. Just put it on a wet cotton pad and rub your face in the direction of the massage lines and rinse after two minutes.
   • If the skin is not only oily, but also sensitive, salt is recommended to replace with soda.
4. Do not get too carried away with tonic or lotions for alcohol. If their impact is very strong, the skin will begin to resist it and the work of the sebaceous glands will only intensify.
5. Be sure to use special foams, gels and scrubs for washing. They can be bought in the store, good, almost all manufacturers indicate, for what type of skin is this or that product. But the same means can be prepared at home from ordinary products.
