How To Prevent Oily Skin

So, I do 'suffer' from oily skin and I know how annoying it is, but there are certainly many ways you can prevent or 'deal' with oily skin. The routine I am currently using has deffinatly been helping me, and hopefully it will help you too!

Firstly I apply an Anti Shine Balm by Teen Skin Actvities* all over my face. This helps prime my makeup and also prevents or controls the oils in my skin. Because this is a balm I let this sit on my face for a few minutes so it can absorb, and get to work! Although it is a fairly thick consisteancy, I find it works really well with my skin and really does combat oily-ness. Using products that are espicially designed to combat oil skin is also a huge part in the prevention of your oily skin.   I will then use the Klenex Oil Absorbing Sheets just before my makeup if there are still any oily spots, and then use it after my makeup again if need be. I also carry them round in my purse, you can never be too prepared!

Washing your face twice a day removes excess oil and prevents it clogging your pores. I use the Clinique Redness Solutions Soothing Cleanser which not only cleans my face but has massively helped the redness. As for cosmetics I reccomend using all powder based products, avoiding cream products and shimmer products! Highlighters should espically be avoided throughout use in the t-zone! Change your tools regularly because oils build up incredibly quickly;change your face cloth regularly and wash your brushes regularly. Try to avoid touching your face, and applying makeup throughout the day as this causes oils to clog in your pores.

I hope this helped you in some way, let me know how you combat your oily skin! What posts would you be interested in seeing?
