The right routine is based on five steps: gentle, soap-free cleansing morning and night, exfoliation with BHA (salicylic acid), light moisturizing (gel-cream), a weekly mask and sebum-regulating active ingredients such as niacinamide, azelaic acid or retinol. Mistake to avoid: stripping the skin, which increases sebum.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bd-hero-meta\">\n<div class=\"bd-hero-meta-item\"><span>Approach<\/span><strong>Independent cosmetic analysis<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"bd-hero-meta-item\"><span>Method<\/span><strong>Verdict Sensitivity - Dr David's rule<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"bd-hero-meta-item\"><span>Selection<\/span><strong>6 treatments rated by BeautyDecoders<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"bd-section\">\n<div class=\"bd-wrap\"><span class=\"bd-section-label\">Understanding<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Causes and consequences of <em>oily skin<\/em><\/h2>\n<p class=\"bd-lead\">Combination to oily skin is characterized by an overproduction of sebum.

Poorly moisturized skin produces more sebum to compensate for the lack of water. Choose light textures (gel-cream, micro-emulsion) that moisturize without weighing down or clogging pores.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"bd-faq-item\">\n<summary>What's the best active ingredient for oily skin?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">There isn't just one. Salicylic acid (BHA) unclogs pores, niacinamide regulates sebum and tightens pores, azelaic acid treats blemishes and spots, and retinol acts deep down. Choose them according to your needs, without combining them all.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"bd-faq-item\">\n<summary>How often should you cleanse oily skin?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">Morning and evening, no more. Washing your face too often strips the skin of its natural oils and causes it to produce more sebum. A gentle, pH-modifying soap-free cleanser is preferable to a stripping product.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"bd-faq-item\">\n<summary>Why does my oily skin sometimes peel?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">Oily skin can be dehydrated on the surface: it feels tight and peeling, while remaining shiny. This is often the sign of a skin barrier damaged by overly aggressive products. The solution is to moisturize with humectants and lighten your routine.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"bd-faq-item\">\n<summary>Oily skin or dehydrated skin?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">Oily skin produces too much sebum (it's a type of skin). Dehydration is a temporary lack of water that can affect oily skin, making it paradoxically shinier. In this case, we rely on humectants such as hyaluronic acid and glycerine.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"bd-section\">\n<div class=\"bd-wrap\"><span class=\"bd-section-label\">Further information<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Our guides <em>oily skin &amp; skin types<\/em><\/h2>\n<div class=\"bd-hub-grid\"><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/moisturizer\/oily-skin-cream\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Comparison<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Best creams for oily skin<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/care-by-skin-type\/oily-skin\/sun-cream-for-oily-skin\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Comparison<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Sun cream for oily skin<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/anti-acne-care\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Guide<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Anti-acne care<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/care-by-skin-type\/dry-skin\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Guide<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Treating dry skin<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/care-by-skin-type\/combination-skin\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Guide<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Treating combination skin<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"bd-sig\"><strong>Dr Sylvain David<\/strong><span>Plastic and aesthetic surgeon - Founder of BeautyDecoded<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"bd-disclaimer\">\n<p>Information for educational purposes only.
