Balancing Act: The Ultimate Skincare Routine for Oily, Dehydrated Skin

As a skincare expert at Salt & Honey, I'm excited to share with you our tips for managing oily, dehydrated skin. It's common to wonder if skin can be oily and dry at the same time, and the answer is yes. Oily skin can also lack moisture, causing it to feel tight and rough in some areas.

If you're looking to balance your skin's hydration and oil control, consider incorporating these tips into your routine:

Use a gentle cleanser

It's important to remove excess oil and impurities without stripping your skin of its natural oils. We recommend FarmHouse Fresh's Green Tea Milk Wash.

Exfoliate regularly

Regular exfoliation can help remove dead skin cells and unclog pores. Try FarmHouse Fresh's Pudding Apeel Tapioca + Rice Active Fruit Glycolic Mask for a gentle physical exfoliation.

Choose the right moisturizer

Look for a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer like FarmHouse Fresh's Three Milk Ageless Moisturizer that will hydrate your skin without adding excess oil.

Don't skip the sunscreen

Even if you have oily skin, it's important to protect your skin from the sun's harmful rays. Try FarmHouse Fresh's lightweight, non-greasy Sundae Best Chocolate Softening Mask SPF 35.

Watch your diet

While there isn't a direct correlation between food and oily skin, some people find that certain foods can exacerbate their skin's oil production. Pay attention to how your skin reacts to certain foods and adjust accordingly.

Conclusion

Finally, remember that washing your face too often can actually strip your skin of its natural oils and lead to over-production of oil. Stick to washing your face twice a day, and avoid using hot water or harsh cleansers. With a little bit of patience and the right routine, you can achieve a balanced, healthy complexion.
