Oily Skin

Having oily skin does not necessarily mean that a person will be more prone to acne. However, as excess sebum is produced in oily skin conditions, this is one of three main causes of acne.

A person with this type of skin is more likely to have blackheads, but it can be kept under control by keeping his or her face ultra clean and exfoliating regularly.

Normal skin has small pores and this gives the impression of smoothness whilst oily skin has larger pores which can make skin appear uneven. Blackheads and dead skin cells can actually make a pore larger. So, by exfoliating the pores, this debris can be removed and the pores appear smaller and the face tone much more even.

A common mistake that people make is not to moisturize oily skin fearing that it will cause more breakouts. Cleansing and exfoliation can take away all the oil and if you don't moisturize, the skin will react by producing more oil.
