With oily skin, shine control is a top concern.
Although there are benefits to having oily skin (𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗹𝗲𝘀).
You should avoid ingredients like mineral oil, petrolatum and alcohol.
Products labeled "non- comedogenic" work great for oily skin as these won't clog up your pores.
Oil-free moisturizers are your best friends (yes, you still need to moisturize!), as are chemical exfoliants and clay masks.
