"When it comes to summer, my oily skin is sweaty, oily, acne-prone, dissolving makeup, and the pimples become more serious!" Is this your voice? Do you feel that "the warmer the weather, the worse conditions of the skin"? It is not just an imagination, but your skin is really getting worse! As the temperature rises, every 1°C rise, the amount of oil secretion increases by 10%. How to improve the troubles caused by oily skin in this warm and sometimes rainy summer weather? Let’s rely on the "light skin diet"!
Many factors cause oil, not just temperature, but also related to diet, stress, physique, and even hormones. First, check the following options to see if you are really oily skin.
●Know your skin type─Is my skin oily?
1.Even if you don't use any skincare products the night before, your skin is still full of oil when you wake up the next day.
2.After washing your face (without wiping any skincare products), the oil will start to come out of your skin in about 20 minutes.
3.Your skin is easy to form acne and blackheads. In summer, the situation becomes more serious.
If you fit the above three conditions, you have an 87% chance of being "oily skin." In fact, moderate oil can protect the skin and reduce wrinkles, so we don't need to remove skin oil thoroughly. We just need to help the skin to generate "moderate" amounts of oil.
Don't hate the oil on your face; it is here to help you protect your skin!
"Even in winter, there is a constant production of oil. I just want to find a super powerful facial cleanser!
"What if I have combination skin which is sensitive and easy to get red?"
"After using blackhead pore strip mask, my blackheads and acne still grow back at night! How can I solve them?"
"My skin is still super oily after washing my face five times a day! Should I start to use exfoliating products?"
Actually, excessive cleaning is like rubbing soft tofu with a scouring pad. Once the oil on the face is removed completely, the skin will generate more oil to protect Epidermis. Therefore, about the daily cleaning and maintenance of oily skin, the following three principles must be followed：
1.Friendly─Using mild cleansing milk with natural surfactants to avoid the strong cleansing milk containing soap base, soap cream and granules, which will destroy the weak acidity of the Epidermis, causing dryness and tightness. Use Beetroot Cleansing Gel, press it for 1 to 2 times, add water at room temperature (25-30℃) to foam, and then gently roundly massage the face. For parts with more acne, can give that area a bit more rub. It can take away the dirt of the surface layer and purify the pores deeply, remove excess oil, retain proper moisture, and leave the skin fresh and soft after washing.
2.Moderate─Even you are oily skin, it just need to wash your face no more than three times a day. Clean you face by Beetroot Cleansing Gel in the morning and evening, and splash the face with clean water at noon to remove the oily surface layer. No need to use a facial cleanser to stimulates your skin excessively. If you are wearing makeup, you just need to use oil blotting paper or tissue to press the oil out lightly, it can also improve oil accumulation.
3.Moisturizing─Sometimes we may afraid of using moisturizers because of our oily skin. In fact, if you choose "good oil" to protect your skin, it will not make your skin feel sticky or thick. It can inhibit of oil secretion. To avoid excessive sebum oxidation on the skin, which will make the skin tones turn waxy. We can use Hyssopus Officinalis Balancing Emulsion. It contains the essential oil ingredient of Hyssop, which appears 12 times in the Bible. It can clean the pores deeply, and make your skin be more moisturizing, and resolve your uneven skin tone. The usage is like "has several small meals a day, rather than just a couple large meals." If your skin is still feeling tight after first applying, apply a bit more.

If the water droplets form a bead on the skin, it means that the protective film has been developed and can achieve the effect of preventing penetration. If it is cloudy (white sweat) after spraying water, it means that in addition to being unable to prevent sweat, the chemical components also easily penetrate the skin.
3.Lightfastness─Choose products with SPF50 (Sun Protection Factor), which can extend the lightfastness time by 50 times, UVR (uvr blocking) anti-ultraviolet resistance is as high as 98%.
