Action
Overactive sebaceous glands can be observed in the form of shiny skin, especially in the T-zone - forehead, nose, chin. Excess sebum contributes to the clogging of the sebaceous glands' mouths - the formation of blackheads. We can encounter excessive, unsightly skin shining at any time of the year, in summer as well. The skin's natural defense reaction against the sun is increased melanin production and thickening of the epidermis. UV radiation can also aggravate dry skin, which is a signal for the sebaceous glands to intensify sebum production. More sebum means noticeably shinier skin. So how to break the vicious cycle and take care of oily and combination skin in the summer? Remember to regularly cleanse your skin thoroughly with cosmetics based on mild cleansing ingredients. The second step of proper skin care after cleansing is moisturizing the skin. Take a holistic approach to hydration - drink a minimum of 2 liters of water a day and use creams that seal the epidermal hydro-lipid barrier. A tight epidermal barrier prevents excessive water loss from the skin. Step three is face cream. Opt for lightweight, non-comedogenic, multifunctional cosmetics, providing at the same time: UV protection, mattifying, covering skin imperfections.
