How to take care of oily and sensitive skin

There are various skin problems. Different skin types will cause different problems. Everyone should be very distressed when facing their own skin problems, especially female friends, who care about their skin very much and don’t know how to solve the problems that arise. Among various skin problems, oily and sensitive skin is the most common. Today we will take a look at the skin care problems of oily and sensitive skin.

First: Choose a slightly acidic cleanser

The skin is extremely sensitive in winter due to dryness and lack of water. Therefore, when choosing skin care products, you should choose those that do not contain fragrances, alcohol, or heavy preservatives. When it comes to facial cleansers, don't choose alkaline products that are too strong or too irritating. Because the alkalinity is too strong and will damage the skin, it is better to use a mild and slightly acidic cleanser.

In addition, you should not use a cleansing brush, sponge or loofah when cleansing your face to avoid sensitivity caused by friction.

Second: Use alcohol-free toner

The function of toner is to give the face a refreshing and smooth feeling. Most general toners contain alcohol, which will not only make sensitive skin prone to redness, but will also cause the skin to feel tight after the alcohol evaporates. Therefore, you should choose a mild toner that does not contain alcohol or fragrances. When applying, use the tips of your index, middle and ring fingers to lightly tap the skin. Never pat it hard to avoid irritation.

Third: Avoid using oil-control formulas in day creams

People with sensitive skin should not choose repair creams that are highly irritating and concentrated. Those that are slightly acidic and fragrance-free or marked as being specially made for sensitive skin are the best. Since the sunlight in autumn and winter is not as strong as in summer, there is no need to use oil-control ingredients in day creams. Active particle ingredients that can lock in skin moisture are enough.

Fourth: Use a high-moisture wet foundation

Unlike summer, in the dry autumn and winter, when using foundation for sensitive skin, in addition to considering the anti-allergic effect, you should also choose a wet foundation with high moisture content to reduce the itching and pain caused by dryness.

Oily and sensitive skin is prone to acne. The skin is very sensitive and easily inflamed. Therefore, you should be careful when using skin care products. You should choose those that suit your skin type and do not use cosmetics indiscriminately. Sometimes skin problems are caused by improper use of cosmetics.
