Oily skin care

Before we begin to explain how to make up oily skin, we are going to tell you a little about this type of complexion, its characteristics and the care it needs.

Oily skin is mainly characterized by excessive sebum production , usually caused by stress, genetics or hormonal changes. This makes the dermis appear with more pimples , shine and enlarged pores than other skin types.

Today, there are many types of skin from dry to oily skin, passing through normal. Identifying the type of complexion you have is essential to pamper it with cosmetics specifically indicated for it.

How do I know if my skin is oily? If you want to find out if your skin is oily or not, you can do it quickly as it tends to look  shiny on a daily basis. Likewise, when you touch it, you will feel how its touch is oily and a little greasy , in addition to having dilated pores.

Now that you know what this type of skin is like, you may be wondering about the best way to care for and pamper it. Well, I suggest a series of guidelines to follow so that the skin looks radiant and mattified.

Recommended steps to take care of oily skin

• Clean and remove make-up from the face in the morning and at night: Excessive cleaning causes the complexion to become dehydrated, however insufficient cleaning causes the pores to become clogged. Therefore, I recommend you wash your face only twice a day.
• Exfoliate the skin once a week: In this way, it removes and deeply cleanses the pores, avoiding the appearance of unwanted blackheads.
• Do not touch pimples and pimples: This step is very important. Not only does not touching the pimples prevent infection or injury, but it also prevents the pimples from spreading on the face.
• Moisturize facial skin daily: Oily skin needs to be hydrated every day. It is also important to apply sunscreen to avoid the negative effects of the sun's rays.

So far the 4 basic rules to care for oily-prone skin! But like everything in life, there are also some aspects to avoid so that the skin looks healthy and without damage.

Steps to avoid to take care of oily skin

• Do not rub the face: Rubbing the complexion overexcites the sebaceous glands, producing more oil. So I advise you not to rub your face every time you wash it or apply creams on it.
• Avoid astringent cosmetics : Using cosmetics with alcohol on oily skin is not beneficial, since it favors the production of more oil in addition to dryness.
• Avoid dense textures : Dense creams increase the secretion of sebum on the skin, while promoting the appearance of shine.

And here are the tricks to pamper oily-prone skin. If you follow these tips, your complexion will look radiant, matte and flawless. What are you waiting for to carry them out?

Make up oily skin step by step

Now that it is clear to you what oily-prone skin looks like and its most advisable beauty routine, I am going to tell you step by step how to apply makeup.

Make up this type of skin is not an easy task. In oily skin, makeup usually lasts less time intact because it secretes more oil than usual, in addition to presenting more shine.

To avoid this, you must prepare the skin thoroughly using the appropriate products. These are the steps that I advise you to follow:

1. Primer: Although it is not mandatory to use primer when applying makeup, it is best to do it. Especially those primers whose function is to mattify and hide pores. With it, you make the foundation last longer undamaged on the skin.
2. Make-up base: I advise you to use make-up bases whose finish is matte, as well as oil-free. When applying it on the skin, use a suitable sponge or brush for it, in this way you do not manipulate the skin with your fingers.
3. Mattifying powders: After applying the makeup base, do not forget to mattify it with powders. The objective of this step is to avoid the appearance of shine and grease, as well as to set the foundation for a longer time.
4. Illuminator:  Time to illuminate the complexion! In oily skin you have to be careful ... You should avoid lighting the areas most prone to generating fat such as forehead, nose, cheeks and chin. I also recommend using powdered highlighters, rather than creamy highlighters.

These are the steps that I recommend you follow to show off a perfect look, but be careful because there are also some makeup products to avoid. To avoid clogging the pores of the skin, I suggest you avoid makeup that is very covering and creamy. Instead, use compact or stick makeup.
