8. Caring for Oily Skin

Although it’s tempting to wash oily skin as often as possible, over-cleansing can dry out your skin's surface, triggering your oil glands to produce even more sebum. Instead of harsh astringents, use a gentle, foaming cleanser to wash away excess dirt and oil without stripping your skin of its protective moisture barrier.

A lightweight, oil-free, non-comedogenic moisturizer will give your skin the healthy hydration it needs to look more glowy and less greasy.
