Zone T, glitters, grain, short makeup duration: Oily skin has its characteristics and I bet you like them as little as I do..
When I started training in makeup, one of my great challenges was how to treat oily skin. Yo, in first person, I have experienced that situation in which I had put on my makeup for an event and after a few hours my makeup seemed to have started the open bar without my. Shines and more shines.
Over time I learned to love my oily skin., do you know why? Because oily skin is less prone to the appearance of wrinkles and when you learn to take care of them, They are very easy to control.
The first time they told me that to treat oily skin I had to use oils my head almost exploded..
"Oil?how can it be? "If precisely what I don't want is to have that greasy feeling on my face"
I was taught to understand that oily skin is actually sensitive skin. That fat is nothing more than a defense that our skin has to protect us from soaps, aggressive cosmetics, saturated environments, heat…
Therefore, If oily skin is sensitive skin y, because of my chemical training I know, that theor equal dissolves equal, I couldn't pretend to eliminate the oil from my skin with an astringent soap that the only thing it could generate was that known rebound effect.
This is what made me start digging into the wonderful world of vegetable oils. (non-essential, What are other types of oils?).
I discovered healing oils, firming, nutritious, tranquilizers…and of course, fat balancers.
I began to incorporate them into my routines for oily skin and I could almost achieve any goal I set out to change in my skin just by using oils..
Then I decided to incorporate them into my body routine and I even decided to take care of my baby's skin with oils instead of using typical moisturizing creams from well-known brands..
“The crazy woman about oils” he called me.
Generally, In the routines that I create I always incorporate some oily phase such as some loil-based facial cleanser: I usually do it during the nighttime double cleansing step., in order to remove traces of makeup, sweat, fat, sun protection and pollution.
Do you know that dry oils exist?? For the most demanding in terms of textures, there are also oils..
But be careful.
Although I love oils, Its use is not suitable for all skin types.
Skin with pathologies such as rosacea, They should be especially careful with this cosmetic ingredient.
Rosacea is caused by the presence of a mite called Demodex.. This mite lives on human skin and feeds on sebum., inhabiting the follicles of skin areas such as the cheeks, forehead, nose or eyelids.
In skin with rosacea, other hygiene methods should be used other than those used in cleaning oily skin and I always recommend that its treatment be prescribed by a dermatologist..
What last recommendations would you give to treat your oily skin?? Well, above all, don't be afraid of oils and that a well-established cleaning routine saves your life..
