Simple Oily Skin Skincare Routine

It is possible to have a simple 2 to 3 step routine for your oily skin and keep breakouts, excessive oiliness, hyper-pigmentation and textured skin at bay! 

These aforementioned issues are common concerns oily skinned individuals have and are always on the lookout for solutions to. This often times results in piles and piles of various skincare products all seeking to target and solve these various issues. 

Well, I am here to tell you that you can have a minimal routine using a few multi-tasking products and yet have clear, smooth, healthy skin, as an oily skinned person! All you need is a couple of cleansers, a hydrating serum, sunscreen, a moisturizer and a treatment product! 

A salicyclic acid cleanser is perfect for morning use. As a cleanser, it will only be in contact with the skin for a short period of time, thus reducing the chance of irritation, yet affording the active the chance of doing its job of clearing out the skin's pores and cleaning up the skin's surface. This can be followed up with the hydrating serum like our Drip serum, sunscreen and your morning routine is done! 

For the night time routine, simply cleanse your skin with a gentle, non active cleanser like the Oyin cleanser. You do not want to make the mistake of using your salicylic acid cleanser twice a day or before your treatment product in the same routine. This will definitely cause irritation of the skin, as it means you are over exfoliating. So please avoid doing this. After the cleanser, apply your treatment product - this could be a de-pigmenting product like the Glossy creme, or even your niacinamide product like Maradan! This will then be followed up with a moisturizing cream to hydrate and nourish the skin. The skin restores itself better when we sleep! 

There you have it! Did you realize that your oily skin skincare routine could be this simple? Always ask the advice of a professional, when making a decision about your products!
