Oily Skin

Oily skin is characterized by excess sebum production, resulting in a shiny appearance, particularly in the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin). Common signs include enlarged pores, a greasy feeling shortly after cleansing, and frequent breakouts such as blackheads, whiteheads, or acne. Makeup often slides off or doesn’t last long due to the oiliness, and clogged pores are a frequent issue. If your skin feels greasy throughout the day and is prone to acne or persistent shine, these are clear indicators of oily skin.

To care for oily skin, incorporate Korean beauty elements designed to balance oil production and maintain hydration. Start with a gentle foaming cleanser containing tea tree oil or salicylic acid to remove excess sebum and prevent breakouts. Follow with a clarifying toner infused with witch hazel, green tea, or bamboo water to tighten pores and refresh the skin. Incorporate lightweight serums or ampoules with niacinamide to regulate oil production and propolis extract for its anti-inflammatory benefits. Use a clay mask weekly to deeply cleanse and minimize pore size. Opt for a lightweight gel moisturizer with hyaluronic acid or aloe vera to provide hydration without clogging pores. Finish with a matte-finish sunscreen designed for oily skin to protect while reducing shine. This routine ensures your skin stays balanced, healthy, and breakout-free.
