Collection: Facial Care | Oily Skin + Acne

Causes of Oily Skin + Over production of Sebum:

• genetics
• hormonal changes and imbalances
• medication
• stress
• make-up products that cause irritation

Oily skin is prone to comedones (blackheads and whiteheads) and to the varying forms of acne.

With mild acne, a significant number of comedones appear on the face and frequently on the neck, shoulders, back and chest too.

In moderate and severe cases, papules (small bumps with no visible white or black head) and pustules (medium sized bumps with a noticeable white or yellow dot at the centre) appear and the skin becomes red and inflamed.
