Natural Skin Care for Oily Skin

Best Natural Ingredients in Skin Care for Oily Skin

When it comes to skin care for oily skin, natural ingredients make all the difference for balancing an oily complexion. Microbiome friendly formulations are the holy grail in skin care for oil skin and help battle breakouts and oily skin. When incorporated into your oily skin care routine pre and probiotic fractions restore the microbiome balance of the skin.

Many people with oily skin experience inflammation caused by over-cleansing or an overzealous active skincare routine, as they try to counteract the overactive sebum production that leads to clogged pores and breakouts. Including products containing pre and probiotic ingredients into your oily skin care routine helps to restore an optimal balance of ‘good bacteria’ within your skin’s microbiome, that leads to healthy functioning skin. Look for vegan Pre+Probiotic infusions within all-natural origins like Chicory Root which calms inflammation, Lactobacillus Ferment to soothe and strengthen the skin barrier and Bacillus Ferment for strengthening the skin and improving skin texture by reducing roughness.

Guide to Caring for Oily Skin

Double cleansing is ideal for caring for oily skin. When it comes to cleansing don’t be deterred by oil. Oil attracts oil and is a very effective first cleanse for removing the excess sebum, dirt, makeup while deeply cleansing the pores. Finish your cleanse with pH balancing pore refining cleanser in a gel or cream lotion. Avoid harsh foaming or mousse cleansers that strip your skin and exacerbate excess oil production.

Follow with a lightweight natural serum formulated with ingredients that are anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory such as Niacinamide, Kigelia and jojoba seed oil. A common mistake that people with oiler complexions make is skipping their morning and night moisturiser. But when selecting skin care for oily skin choosing the right moisturiser to apply after your cleanse and serum will help balance your skin while protecting it. Oily skin can be prone to dehydration so look for gel and lightweight lotions that contain Hyaluronic Acid to boost the moisture level in the skin without adding weight.

TNC TIP: Using botanical based oil products on oily skin helps to balance and regulate the production of excess sebum, meaning your skin over time may become a little less greasy. Remember a little goes a long way with clean and potent natural skincare.
