There is such a thing as shining too<\/em> bright — here’s how to keep oily skin to \u00a0a minimum.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Often, how oily skin is caused comes down to genetic or hormonal factors that cannot be controlled – in these cases you can only look at ways to treat the excess oil<\/u><\/a> on your face. But other times, it is external factors that are causing that periodic greasy sheen – the best course of action is to take is preventative measures.<\/p>\n Always make sure to wash your face twice a day – in the morning and before you go to sleep, but no more than that. Washing too often can dry out the skin and cause sebaceous glands to overreact by producing more oil. Use lukewarm water as hot water may dry or irritate the skin and stay away from harsh soaps or facial cleansers that may dry out the skin. Find a cleanser that is gentle but suitable for oily skin – used in combination with the\u00a0LUNA mini 2<\/u><\/a>, this is a great way for unclogging pores of oil and helping to keep you face shine-free.<\/p>\n Read the ingredients list to make sure your cosmetics are oil-free and non-comedogenic. Try a mineral powder or water-based foundation, and powder blush and eye shadow rather than creams. And remember to wash off all of your makeup before going to bed.<\/p>\n Even though it may seem strange to moisturize oily skin, it\u2019s still something you should do. Skin that\u2019s oily still needs moisture so oil glands don\u2019t produce excess oil. Try to use moisturizers and sunscreens that are oil-free, but don\u2019t use makeup-removing cold creams or lotions as they may leave a greasy film on the skin.<\/p>\n For skin that isn\u2019t oily all the time, but suffers from periodic bouts of shininess, watch to see whether your food intake corresponds to your oily skin so you can adjust your diet accordingly. Make an effort to avoid sugar, dairy and refined carbohydrates, as some studies show these can aggravate oily skin conditions. Eat natural foods and fresh fruits and vegetables as much as possible.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n\u00a01. Wash your Face the Right Way<\/strong><\/h4>\n
