Dealing with oily skin
When the skin on your face is producing a lot of oil, you may be tempted to cleanse more than twice a day or to use harsh, drying products to get rid of the oil. This will actually make the situation worse by promoting the production of sebum, as your skin tries to rehydrate itself. If a product makes your skin feel dry or tight after cleansing, it is likely that it is going to have the opposite effect, and make your skin oilier in the long run.
The ideal cleanser doesn’t use harsh ingredients, which may disrupt the acid mantle of the skin and cause irritation. At Skin Elegance, you will find the full Synergie Skin line of products. Their cleansers, in particular, are designed to be strong and effective, but gentle at the same time. This is particularly beneficial if you are dealing with more than one skin concern, for example oily skin that is also sensitive, or oily acne prone skin.
Synergie products harness the best of science and nature, combining the two to work in synergy, to create safe, effective skin care. All products are free from questionable ingredients, such as artificial colors and fragrances, parabens, phthalates, PEGs, sodium sulfates and propylene glycol.
The best facial cleanser for oily sensitive skin
Having oily skin or sensitive skin separately can be frustrating enough, but when you have the two conditions together, it can seem like an impossible task to achieve a clear, matte complexion. It is, of course, more of a challenge, but certainly not impossible with the right products. Cleansing is a key part of a good skin care routine, and using the best facial cleanser for oily sensitive skin can make a huge difference.
If you have sensitive skin, you will know that gentle products are essential, so as not to cause any irritation. Synergie UltraCleanse is part natural face moisturizer for oily skin, part scientific powerhouse, and is ideal for all skin types. UltraCleanse gently removes surface dirt and cell debris, without stripping the skin of its natural oils.
You should always introduce new products to sensitive skin one at a time, and perform a patch test before use, such as on the neck or behind the ear. If any irritation occurs, then you should cease using the product immediately.
The best cleanser for sensitive oily skin is only one part of the equation
Effectively cleansing the skin is the cornerstone of any good skincare regimen, so using the best cleanser for sensitive oily skin is a good place to start. But it doesn’t end there. To really take control of oily, sensitive skin, you need to look at your skin care regimen and lifestyle factors as a whole.
Cleanse twice a day. Although it may be tempting to wash your face more often, using the best face cleanser for oily skin, you should only wash your face in the morning and in the evening.
Moisturize. Some people avoid using moisturizer on oily skin out of fear that it will make it worse, however, even oily skin still needs to be moisturized. Use a light, oil-free moisturizer, such as Synergie Hydrogel.
Exfoliate. Oily skin can accumulate a lot of surface debris, and pores can become clogged due to excess oil production. Use an exfoliating serum, such as Reveal (or Luciderm, if you also have sensitive skin), to decongest the skin and support the skin’s natural processes. Avoid using a harsh exfoliant and never scrub the skin.
Stay hydrated. Drinking plenty of water and staying hydrated from the inside is important for all skin types, but can be particularly important if you have oily skin, as dehydration can boost sebum production.
