You may feel it’s a curse right now, but there are some great benefits to having an oily skin.
Oily skin is usually thicker and smoother.
Larger sebaceous oil glands produce more oil resulting in a thicker inner skin layer, or dermis, resulting in fewer deep lines, particularly on the forehead.
Oily skin enjoys more natural sun protection.
The oil that your skin produces contains vitamin E, which acts as a natural sunscreen and antioxidant battling free radicals. This doesn’t mean you don’t need to apply a sunscreen, but the vitamin E in the sebum is anti-inflammatory, and helps weather the elements. The IMAGE Skincare Prevention+ daily matte moisturizer SPF 32+ is oil-free and provides necessary hydration and UVA/UVB protection.
Oily skin is more resistant to wrinkles.
Researchers have found that wrinkles are shorter and shallower in areas with sebaceous glands that produce oil. This doesn’t mean you don’t still need to apply a moisturiser to provide hydration for your skin. The IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL restoring serum oil-free is an oil-free lightweight moisturising serum that soothes and absorbs surface oils for a mattifying effect. Vitamin B6 derivative helps to restore skin’s overall healthy balance by visually minimizing pore size, shine and sebum production while botanicals reduce the appearance of irritation and inflammation.
Oily skin requires smaller amounts of skin care products.
While your dry skin friends often feel the need to apply thick layers of cream to make their skins feel comfortable, oily skins will use a light touch of a light-weight moisturizer like the IMAGE Skincare CLEAR CELL mattifying moisturizer is a lightweight soothing moisturizer that revitalizes irritated skin. Vitamin B6 derivative improves skin’s overall healthy balance by visually minimizing pore size, shine and sebum production while botanicals reduce the appearance of irritation and inflammation. Hydrates while absorbing surface oils for a refreshed, mattifying effect.
