Care for oily and problematic skin should be tailored to its needs. Special creams, cleansers, peelings should reduce the secretion of sebum and moisturize the skin. With the right cosmetics, the pores on the face will not be enlarged, and oily shine and inflammation will disappear.
It is a mistake to believe that greasy shine and inflammation on the skin are caused only by insufficient cleansing. As a rule, the problem is related to the functioning of the whole organism.

The cream is the basis for caring for any skin type. It should moisturize without clogging pores, and be quickly absorbed and mattify. Therefore, products containing oils are not suitable for problem skin. It should contain fatty acids and antiseptic substances.

Among the common myths regarding oily skin, perhaps the most common is that this type does not need moisturizing. In fact, this is not so, but quite the opposite - oily skin, not receiving the required amount of moisture, tries to produce it on its own, which leads to hypersecretion of the sebaceous glands.
The same goes for nutrition. As cosmetologists have assured, oily skin is an excellent means of preventing the premature appearance of wrinkles, so skin nutrition is overlooked when selecting care creams. Although such skin also needs collagen, hyaluronic acid, and essential oils. Their deficiency, again, leads to exhaustion, the appearance of inflammatory processes, a decrease in local immunity, and the appearance of an oily sheen.
Therefore, in this article we will look at all the creams that are used in the care of oily skin, we will understand their composition and rules of use.
Choosing the right cream for your skin is a very serious process. It is he who nourishes, heals, moisturizes and literally “saves” the skin. Masks and lotions are auxiliary products, so their effect is not as effective if used separately. Choosing the perfect cream is worth a lot. To begin with, you need to know which components are required, or at least acceptable, to improve the condition of the oily surface of the face.
Oily skin needs hydration just like other skin types. Despite the fact that the sebaceous glands secrete more liquid fat, this does not affect the moisture state of the epidermis. On the contrary, a greasy layer will only help retain moisture longer. Everything has its advantages.

How to choose a cream for oily skin? We bet you are looking for oil-free, mattifying, non-comedogenic creams? And yet you still use matting wipes every two hours.
ABOUT! I can talk about creams for oily skin for hours! I went through this whole story myself.
I also have oily skin and have had acne in the past. I have tried a lot, almost everything that the market offers for those with oily skin.
Fact: Oily skin needs oil!
In the article I tell you why. Which oils are not only not harmful to oily skin, but also beneficial, because... reduce the secretion of your own sebum.
And in this article I check the content of critical ingredients in well-known creams for oily skin.

Our skin produces sebum. It doesn't matter what type you have. With its help, the skin protects itself from drying out and moisture loss. Sebum is very important to keep the skin in balance – nourished and smooth for as long as possible.
Dry skin produces little sebum. Therefore, your task is to give the skin the necessary protection with the help of creams with a high content.
And oily skin produces a lot of this sebum. But here your task is not to degrease the skin, but to bring it into balance. If you often use classic mattifying creams, which are advertised as oil-free, with silicones, then your skin will begin to secrete even more oil. She seems to say: “Oh, God! We are dried out, we are not given the necessary amount of lubrication. We will die!"
And it produces even more fat. This is a vicious circle, which you can break not with another deep cleansing gel (which 99% will contain strong tensides that dry out the skin), not with another super light oil-free serum with silicones, but with the help of balanced products with!
I know this may sound strange. That many cosmetologists of traditional cosmetology strictly prohibit the use of creams with oils.
But you can conduct an experiment with your skin yourself - in the morning, after cleansing your skin with water, apply a couple of drops of jojoba oil, for example, or grape seed oil to still damp skin. You will see that your skin is much less shiny.
And if you remove the cream at night, all your rashes will go away and your pores will narrow a little.
Try doing this for a week, and then write here in the comments what happened.
If you have previously used classic products for a long time, especially luxury ones, then yes, at first there may be even more rashes. I wrote about this in an article.
Therefore, remember: the best cream for oily skin is not the one that promises mattification and does not contain oils. The best cream for oily skin is the one that balances sebum secretions.
I myself got rid of acne using a fairly rich cream with olive oil. I wrote about how I got rid of acne.
So, what about our creams for oily skin?
In cream Christina contained Ethoxydiglycol, which can weaken the protective functions of the skin. Rating for both creams FINE(for brand product Christina that's great rarity! 99% of products contain many critical ingredients).
All creams contain silicones. In cream Vichy– mineral oil, in La Roche-Posay– microplastic! I wrote about why microplastics in cosmetics are bad in the article Why Do You Eat Your Facial Scrub.
In cream Teana- a mysterious preservative Optifen. This is a mixture of critical Phenoxyethanol And Caprylyl Glycol.

Review of the best moisturizers for facial skin:
Moisturizing oily skin:
Any woman would like to have beautiful, healthy skin.
Any woman would like to have beautiful, healthy skin. I want my skin to have an even tone, to be soft and silky. But, alas, very few people can boast of healthy facial skin, and most women have various skin problems. One of the common problems is excessive sebum production. We will tell you how to choose a cream for oily skin so that it helps eliminate shine and nourishes the epidermis.
Oily facial skin has its advantages. This type of skin tolerates frost and wind more easily, and the first wrinkles appear on it later.
However, there is a drawback - oily skin does not look very attractive. It has a gray tint and an oily sheen appears on it, due to the fact that the sebaceous glands work very actively, creating a protective film on the face that protects against external negative influences. On such skin, acne may sometimes appear, plugs clogging the pores.
Accordingly, when choosing cosmetics for oily skin, you need to take these features into account.
When caring for oily facial skin, all cosmetic procedures should be aimed at normalizing the functioning of the sebaceous glands and regulating the secretion of sebum.
First of all, the skin needs cleansing. Do not use strong products to degrease the skin. It is a mistaken belief that lotions containing alcohol are ideal for those with oily skin. The skin's response will be an attempt to restore the fat deficiency, and as a result it will be released even more.
It is better to use soft cosmetic gels and foams specifically designed for this type of skin. To make the effect of using the products better, you can use a special brush with very soft bristles. Cosmetics may contain extracts of plant materials: oak bark, chamomile, parsley, calendula.
Under no circumstances should you squeeze pimples; you may get inflammation, which may leave a scar. Seek advice from a beauty salon specialist who will tell you the basics of caring for oily skin and select products that are ideal for you.
The next stage after cleansing is smoothing and disinfecting the skin - preparing the skin for nutrition. To do this, you need to choose tonics - antibacterial and balancing tonics.
There is no need to refuse to use the cream for fear that there will be even more oil secreted by the skin.
Yes it is. You just need to use light, non-greasy emulsions that gently moisturize and protect your facial skin. The ideal solution is a moisturizing jelly for oily skin that prevents acne and tightens pores.
To care for oily skin, there are special day creams that contain powder. The powder is almost invisible on the skin. It removes excess fat and the skin looks well-groomed.
You can help your skin with calendula infusion: wipe your face with a cotton swab dipped in the infusion.
You can use peppermint infusion to wash your face. It is also good to use herbs - sage, coltsfoot, nettle, cornflower, birch buds, plantain, yarrow, St. John's wort. It would be good if infusions of these herbs were included in cosmetic products. For home use, you need to brew 1 teaspoon of raw material in a glass of boiling water.
You need to wash your face with warm water and rinse with cold water. It’s good to wipe your face with brewed black tea after washing your face.
Creams for oily skin are made from components that reduce the activation of subcutaneous sebum synthesis. The main condition is that the ratio of the base to the total volume of the composition should not exceed 7 - 10%.
You can add base oils to the cream: almond, corn, milk thistle, grape seed.
The base foundation soothes and nourishes the skin. It is allowed to add essential oils of eucalyptus, tea tree and grapefruit. With their help, they relieve inflammation and prevent the occurrence of acne and comedones. Add no more than 10 drops to the composition.
Recipe No. 1
1. Pour the base into a bowl - oil, preheated in a water bath to 50 degrees.
3. The mixture is heated in a water bath until it thickens.
Recipe No. 2
The active component can be ginger, and the base one can be grape seed oil; instead of essential oil, eucalyptus oil can be used. The components are mixed in the same proportions.
