What causes oily skin?

Oily skin can be caused by genetics, hormones, stress, humidity, poor diet and other lifestyle factors. When your skin releases too much sebum, it lends your face an oily glow.

Sebum is made of fats, which is naturally produced by the sebaceous glands in our skin. It's not entirely bad as it helps to protect and moisturise our skin, but an overproduction of sebum would result in a greasy complexion, clogged pores or even acne.

Oily skin cleansing routine

So if you have oily skin, don't worry. There's nothing an oily skin cleansing routine can't fix. It's essential to use a purifying cleanser and toner for oily skin, because the wrong cleansing products may worsen your skin condition and trigger more acne or skin irritations.

Skincare experts would advise cleansing twice a day with a gentle face wash for oily skin. This first step is important to remove sebum, dirt and other pollutants that could clog your pores. After cleansing, use a purifying toning lotion to minimise the appearance of pores and prep your skin for the next steps.

Clarins' range of cleansers and toners for oily skin

With the right skincare products, you'll finally achieve the radiant, grease-free complexion you've always wanted. Clarins' cleansers and toners for oily skin are carefully formulated with plant-based ingredients that purify the skin, relieve congested pores and protect your skin's moisture barrier.

Start your cleansing routine with the Gentle Foaming Purifying Cleanser, an oil-control face wash for oily skin packed with Alpine Herb, Moringa and Meadowsweet extracts to eliminate dirt and refine your skin's texture. Instead of chemical-produced soap, it utilises the natural cleansing properties of Organic Soapwort, which produces an emulsifying lather that doesn't dehydrate or harm your skin.

One of the main concerns with oily skin is large pores. Thankfully, the Purifying Toning Lotion is a pore-tightening toner that suits both oily and combination skin types. Made with Crocus, Meadowsweet and Saffron Flower extracts, this is one of the face best toners for oily skin and open pores because it effectively tightens large pores and preserves your skin's microbiota. It absorbs quickly to give your skin a refreshing matte finish.

Dab this toner for oily skin onto a clean cotton pad after cleansing your face and gently sweep it across your face and neck. For the best results, do this twice a day and allow it to dry naturally. No rinsing required.
