Introduction:
The easiest way to put your best face forward is to shop specifically for your skin type. After all, not all skin-care products are formulated with oily, dry, sensitive, or combination skin in mind. As a result, if you shop
by product type (say, cleanser or moisturizer) alone, you could accidentally
wind up with irritation or, worse, full-blown breakouts. This is especially
true for those with oily skin, as many popular ingredients can clog your
pores.
With this in mind, it’s important to know what to keep an eye out for when shopping for oily skin-friendly products. Luckily for us, TikTok-famous
dermatologist
Dr. Suchismita (Tia) Paul, MD, (AKA derm4brownskin)
has made it easier than ever with her four non-negotiables for people with
oily skin. Check them out, below.
#1 Only buy oil-free formulas
If you have oily skin, the last thing you want is to make it look even shinier. But that’s not the only reason Dr. Paul recommends opting for oil-free skincare products. Another is because oil-based products are
more likely to clog pores and cause breakouts, and since folks with
oily skin is often already more acne-prone, it’s simply best to steer
clear.
#2 Stock up on non-comedogenic skincare and makeup
Non-comedogenic is a fancy way of saying that a product won’t clog
your pores. By opting for non-comedogenic formulas, folks with oily
skin can avoid exacerbating or creating breakouts.
#3 Opt for a gel-based, lightweight moisturizer
More often than not, oil-free and non-comedogenic products are more
lightweight than other products on the market. But, to be abundantly
clear, Dr. Paul says that one of the best things you can do for your
skin, if it’s oily, is to opt for a lightweight, gel-based (oil-free and
non-comedogenic) moisturizer, like Glow Recipe’s Watermelon Pink Juice
Oil-Free Moisturizer ($39) or Summer Fridays Cloud Dew Oil-Free Gel
Cream Moisturizer ($42), to deeply hydrate your skin (which
will ultimately help balance its oil production) without weighing it
down in the process.
#4 Never skip out on broad-spectrum sunscreen
No matter the weather, or any preconceived notions you have
surrounding sunscreen, Dr. Paul says that sun protection is an
absolute non-negotiable for oily skin (and any skin type, for that
matter). To ensure that your skin is fully safeguarded, you’ll want to
reach for a sun-care product formulated with SPF 30 or higher. To keep
your oily skin in mind, we suggest Sunday Riley’s Light-Hearted Broad
Spectrum SPF 30 Daily Face Sunscreen ($35), which won’t weigh skin
down, as well as Tatcha’s Silken Pore Perfecting Sunscreen Broad
Spectrum SPF 35 PA+++ ($65) because it helps minimize shine and shrink
the appearance of pores while protecting your skin against the sun’s
harsh UV rays.
