2020 Must Have Skincare Products for Oily Skin
If you are someone that has oily skin, it means you produce excess sebum, or oil, that results in a shiny or greasy appearance. Those with oily skin tend to be more prone to acne, and have larger and sometimes clogged pores if not adequately taken care of. The best way to balance the oiliness is to use lightweight skincare products that effectively controls oil production without over drying or weighing down the skin. Here are a few products, with a light formulation, for oily skin types that are non-comedogenic, oil free and provides proper oil control throughout the day.
La-Roche Posay Toleriane Purifying Foaming Cleanser
The La-Roche Posay Toleriane line is amazing as a whole, but this foaming cleanser is particularly great for those with oily skin. Its refreshing gel formula removes excess oil while maintaining skin’s natural protective barrier and pH. It is infused with Prebiotic Thermal Water, which helps reinforce the natural water retention barrier, and glycerin, which is great for keeping the skin hydrated. It also has niacinamide, which can improve excess sebum production, the appearance of pores, fine lines and keeps the skin's barrier intact. It’s a very gentle face wash that can be used both at night and in the morning if needed, and it does an effective job at really cleansing the skin of dirt, impurities and even makeup.
