Understanding Oily Skin: Causes and Solutions

Oily skin occurs when the sebaceous glands produce excess sebum, leading to a shiny complexion and increased likelihood of clogged pores. This can be influenced by genetics, hormonal changes, stress, and environmental factors. While oil is essential for keeping the skin hydrated, too much can result in breakouts and an unbalanced skin barrier.

At Winslow, we specialize in treatments designed to regulate oil production and restore skin balance. Our targeted facials deeply cleanse the pores, remove impurities, and use professional-grade ingredients to control shine without stripping the skin.

Causes of Oily Skin

In addition to treatments, we educate our clients on the best skincare practices for oily skin. From choosing lightweight, non-comedogenic products to maintaining a proper cleansing routine, we provide expert advice to help keep skin fresh, clear, and healthy.

At Winslow Skincare, we use professional-grade products designed to regulate oil production and keep your skin clear.

Other Information

What causes oily skin?

Oily skin is primarily caused by overactive sebaceous glands that produce excess sebum. This can be influenced by genetics, hormonal changes, diet, stress, and environmental factors.

How can I control excess oil throughout the day?

Using a gentle cleanser, lightweight oil-free moisturizers, and mattifying products can help. Blotting papers and oil-absorbing powders are also effective for managing shine without stripping the skin.

Does oily skin still need hydration?

Yes! Dehydrated skin can produce even more oil to compensate. Opt for oil-free, non-comedogenic hydrating products, such as gel-based moisturizers with hyaluronic acid.

Can oily skin cause acne?

Yes, excess oil can mix with dead skin cells and bacteria, leading to clogged pores and breakouts. Proper cleansing and using non-comedogenic skincare products can help prevent acne.

What ingredients are best for oily skin?

Look for ingredients like salicylic acid (to clear clogged pores), niacinamide (to regulate oil production), clay (to absorb excess oil), and witch hazel (to tighten pores and reduce shine).

Should I exfoliate if I have oily skin?

Yes, but in moderation. Exfoliating 2-3 times a week with a gentle chemical exfoliant like BHA (salicylic acid) can help prevent clogged pores without irritating the skin.

Is it okay to wear makeup if I have oily skin?

Yes, but opt for oil-free, non-comedogenic foundations and primers. Setting your makeup with a mattifying powder or setting spray can help control shine.

What skincare treatments are best for oily skin?

At Winslow Skincare, we recommend deep-cleansing facials, microdermabrasion, LED light therapy, and high-frequency treatments to help balance oil production and reduce congestion.

Can diet affect oily skin?

Yes, high-glycemic foods, dairy, and processed sugars can trigger excess oil production. A diet rich in antioxidants, omega-3s, and plenty of water can help balance the skin.
