1. Greasy skin does NOT equal grimy skin.
2. Cleanse with an oil-based cleanser for balanced skin.
3. Alcohol is not your friend.
4. But moisturiser is.
5. Exfoliate; don’t exterminate.
6. Stop piling makeup on.
6. Tingling is bad.
When choosing a product for your oily skin, stay far, far away from those which tingle after you use them; this is a sign that your skin has been stripped of all moisture, and is a portent of the greasiness to come as it tries to compensate by pumping out more oil. ‘Squeaky clean’ is great on floors, counter tops, and toilet seats – not your skin.
