Everyone has oil in their skin. It is the body’s natural means of keeping the skin hydrated and acts as a barrier against infectious viruses and bacteria. However, for many people, their sebaceous glands tend to produce a little too much oil. This results in oily skin, which can be overly shiny or even cause acne breakouts. This condition can be hard to deal with. No matter how much makeup you put on, you likely find that your skin is still looking shiny. Worse, it can cause your makeup to slide around and smudge. For those individuals who are tired of their oily skin, you need a powerful oily skin treatment. This article will discuss the common causes of oily skin and how Synergie Skin products can help.
Genetics
An unfortunate cause of oily skin is your genetics. As such, there is little you can do to help yourself in this regard. You were just born that way. Since you suffer from oily skin, it’s likely that you also suffer from acne. This is because the sebum inside of the oil mixes with the dead skin cells on your face. When this mixture occurs in your pores, it can become infected with bacteria, and you’re left with a brand new pimple. If your genetics already make you predisposed to acne and oily skin, then you should consider the effective products offered by Synergie Skin that can address both acne and oily skin.
Your Environment
Hot, humid climates often contribute to oily skin. If you live in an area that experiences seasons, you have probably noticed that your skin is relatively oil-free during the winter. During the summer, you may feel like there is little you can do to keep your skin from over-producing oil. Keeping blotting papers on hand can help, but investing in high-quality matte moisturizer or foundation can keep you looking flawless even when it’s hot and humid outside.
Know Your Skin
It is very important to buy the right type of products of your skin. If you have dry skin that you are trying to address with combination products, you probably won’t get very good results. The same goes for oily skin that is covered with products meant for dry skin. Knowing what your skin type is, will go a long way toward buying the right products.
