FAQs about Oily Skin
Oily skin is caused by an overproduction of sebum in our sebaceous glands. The sebum in our skin however does play a role, to help moisturise the skin and keep hair shiny.
Stress, humidity, genetics and hormonal changes during a woman’s cycle can influence the sebaceous glands to produce more sebum.
If you have oily skin, you might be fearful of using oil-based products, however, these may actually be beneficial for your skin type. An oil cleanser is often used as part of a double cleansing routine, as a first step to gently remove makeup, SPF and excess sebum from the skin. It is often followed by a second cleanser which is used to properly decongest and clean the skin.

FAQs: Blemish-Prone Skin
If you have acne-prone skin, it is beneficial to exfoliate your skin 2-3 times a week. You may lessen this to 1-2 times a week, depending on how sensitive your skin is.
