Skincare Tip: How To Control A Greasy Complexion

An accumulation of excess sebum on the skin's surface may ignite the temptation to skip moisturizing in the hope of 'drying out' an oilier complexion, but this simple mistake can spell disaster for skin of a greasier nature.
In fact, depriving your skin of its daily moisture boost will force sebaceous glands to produce even more oil in order to compensate, while increasing the risk of dehydration. That's right, even a greasy skin can become dehydrated if inadequately cared for!

A great tip to aid the control of oil production and ensure that skin remains hydrated, is to opt for the application of an oil-free moisturizer after cleansing. Using salicylic acid based wipes throughout the day will also act as an instant freshen up for greasier complexions, degreasing oilier areas, while preventing acne bacteria.
