Oily skin does not mean hydrated

Taking care of your skin is essential, but sometimes this isn't enough.

Acne? Dandruff? Or just excessive sebum production?

The skin on our face is rich in sebaceous glands which have the main function of keeping the skin hydrated, elastic and healthy. However, it is important to consider that sebum production varies from person to person. When it becomes excessive, it can generate a seborrheic oily skin condition, predisposing to the development of seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff and acne.

Overproduction of sebum: what are the causes?

The causes of excessive sebum production are regulated by hormonal stimuli, including cortisol, making stress often responsible for the disorder. In addition to this, the causes of oily skin can be genetic factors, poor nutrition, pollution and an inadequate skincare routine.

Oily but dry skin: a false myth or incorrect hydration?

But what does it mean to have oily but dry skin? It may seem like an oxymoron, but it's a common problem. We often tend to treat oily skin exclusively with products to eliminate excess sebum, dehydrating facial cells and increasing sebum production to compensate for the lack of hydration.
