There is no end to the troubles of those with oily skin. A little mistake in cosmetic selection leads to annoying problems like acne. So today, I will tell you about some simple products to take care of oily skin and to keep makeup on oily skin. These products will keep your makeup beautiful and smooth on the skin for a long time and take care of your oily skin at the same time. Let’s know about essential cosmetics for oily skin care:
1. Primer
If you have oily skin, the most important product you need is a primer. Primer is essential to make your makeup last longer. For oily skin, your makeup easily becomes oily and melts on the face. So, before applying the foundation, you must apply a primer on your face. It will increase the durability of your makeup and brighten up your highlighter or blush. Just apply a little primer on your skin before makeup to make the skin flawless.
2. Cleanser
A common mistake people with oily skin make is choosing formulas that leave their skin dull and dry within days. These formulas absorb the skin’s natural oils. That’s why you should choose a mild oil-free cleanser for oily skin care, which will have good scrubbing power and bring out the true beauty of the skin. Cleanser prevents clogging of skin follicles and helps in air circulation.
3. Facial Mask
Facial masks are mainly made for oily skin. This product prevents your skin from producing excess oil. If you don’t want to use chemical products from the market, you can take care of oily skin by making a homemade pack at home. Sheet masks also work well in skin care.
4. Scrub
Scrubs help to rejuvenate your skin by removing dead skin cells from your oily skin. Additionally, the scrub removes blackheads, cleans pores, and tackles other skin problems. That’s why scrubbing is a must for oily skin care. Take any scrub of your choice and gently rub it on your face for 2 minutes. Keep it for some time and then wash it off with cold water.
5. Steamer
Steamers are very useful in taking care of your oily skin. They help open your skin pores and remove impurities. Even if you don’t have a steamer at home, there is no harm. You can also take steam in a bowl with hot water. Cover your head with a towel while taking steam so that the hot air cannot escape.
6. Waterproof Kajal and Eyeliner
If you have oily skin, you must use waterproof kajal and eyeliner. Otherwise, the eyeliner applied on your oily eyelids may become smudged and oily.
7. Oil-Free Compact
Oil-free compact controls skin oil by reducing skin greasiness while keeping skin glowing. You can also use loose powder if you want. Choose a compact that is light, blends easily on the skin, and gives a matte finish. This lightweight compact won’t clog your pores.
8. Mineral Foundation
Those with oily skin should opt for light and mineral foundations, which won’t clog pores. Mineral foundation is lightweight, oil-free, and gives you a matte finish. It contains SPF, which protects the skin from sunburn. Mineral foundation is suitable for sensitive and oily skin.
9. Oil Blotting Sheet
Oil blotting sheet is a useful product for applying makeup on oily skin. People with oily skin use more compact powders to mattify the skin, but this can close the skin pores. So, oil blotting sheets are best because they absorb skin oil instantly and leave the skin bright and shiny immediately without affecting your makeup. They are soft and silky, which is also very comfortable and easy to use. You can use them on your skin’s ‘T-Zone’ or oily areas to absorb excess oil easily.
10. Makeup Setting Spray
If you have oily skin where foundation wears off easily, you can purchase a makeup setting spray, which will keep your makeup in place throughout the day. Just spray a few pumps on your facial skin to keep your skin oil-free and fresh throughout the day.
Including the above products in your skincare routine is very useful for oily skin, as they will also help you keep your makeup in place.
Some Special Makeup Tips for Oily Skin:
1. Proper Skin Care:
No matter what your skin type is, skin care is very important for the perfect makeup look. If you don’t take good care of your skin, you won’t look beautiful even if you wear makeup. Remember, if you put a layer of makeup on uneven skin, then that layer of makeup will also be uneven and will not set properly on the skin. So you must maintain a basic skincare routine to keep the skin smooth, supple, and acne-free.
2. Choosing the Right Formula:
Your skin is oily, but if you buy and use a moisturizing and dewy finish foundation, your face will be too oily, and the makeup won’t last long. So choosing the right formula product for your skin is very important.
People with oily skin must buy makeup for oily skin. As for foundation, buy a liquid matte or powder foundation that provides full coverage. The less product you use, the more natural you’ll look, and the makeup won’t melt or break. For those with oily skin, I recommend buying blotting paper.
3. Choosing Good Quality Products:
Since you are spending on makeup, it would be wise to buy and use good quality products. When I say good quality products, I am not necessarily talking about expensive products; sometimes, good products are available at low prices.
I have oily skin too. I have used many low-quality products at one time and suffered for my mistakes. So I think it is very important to buy and use good quality makeup products to get the perfect makeup look on oily skin.
