Skincare for Oily Skin

Shop an extensive collection of skincare products suitable for those with oily skin from leading skincare brands.

Oily skin is caused by the excessive production of sebum from the sebaceous glands which sit underneath the surface of the skin. The main disadvantage of having oily skin is that it can contribute to acne breakouts, blemished areas and skin dullness.

You can combat oily skin and excess sebum production with a cleanser specially formulated to tighten your pores, as well as using a regular exfoliating gel, mask or a gentle scrub to remove lingering dead skin cells from the skin's surface. Keeping your skin moisturised is still important for oily skin, so choose a suitable moisturiser that helps you resist shine while still keeping your skin hydrated. Those with oily skin are encouraged to avoid skincare containing oil-based ingredients, fragrances and artificial dyes that may contribute to producing oil and clogging your pores.

It is recommended by leading skincare experts and dermatologists that those with oily skin prioritise skincare containing glycolic acid. Glycolic acid works to reduce the production of excessive sebum oil and unclogs your pores, leaving you with a clear, glowing complexion and healthy-looking skin.
