Skin Care For Oily Skin – Reducing Excessive Oil Production
Oily skin is a real cosmetic problem. At some point or other, most people would have experienced oily skin because of overactive glands that produce too much sebum – the oil that is produced in skin. The overproduction of sebum causes greasy looking skin and clogged pores, and humid conditions – be it because of the summer or the locale you’re in – make it even worse with all that sweat. People with excessively oily skin may also have another problem to contend with: acne. So for those of you suffering from this problem and are looking for solutions to skin care for oily skin, this article will shed some light on how you can reduce excessive oil production in your skin.
First of all let’s get to the culprit of oily skin: sebum. What is sebum? It is the oil produced in the sebaceous glands, which are found on many parts of the body, most of which open into hair follicles. The production of sebum decreases with age, and in the case of women, it reduces with menopause. The reason most acne problems are experienced by adult males is because males produce more sebum than females.
So knowing this, how can we reduce excessive sebum production? There are some who believe in products made to control the production of oil that increases sebum production. Others believe that excess sebum can be dried using blotting oils, thus reducing sebum production. The truth is, oil control products do not reduce sebum production, and using blotting oils only remove surface oil.
Actually all you really need is adhere to the simplest skin care regime. Washing too much too often will expose you to bacteria, as you’ll be removing the acid mantle – the mixture of skin secretions on the surface of the skin, whose acidic properties protect the skin from bacteria. The removal of the acid mantle would then make it easier for bacteria to attack your skin. However that does not mean you shouldn’t wash your face at all, because then you’re back to square one. You need to find the right balance of care when dealing with skin care for oily skin.
Fact is there are no surefire solutions to completely stop the problem of oily skin. However there are products out there which can help in the maintenance of it. Products like AHAs and oil blotting papers help in removing excess oils on the skin’s surface. AHAs – Alpha Hydroxy Acids – help exfoliate dead skin cells and remove excess oils from the skin. Oil blotting papers also help significantly in removing and reducing surface oil on the skin. Some have the misconception that oil blotting papers can help stop oil production, but this is not true as the blotting papers only help on the surface, and the production of oil happens beneath the surface of the skin. Some of the better quality oil blotting papers are coated with powder that helps absorb more sebum and keeps the skin dry.
There are many other ways of reducing excessive oil production in the skin. While you may be concerned over skin care for oily skin, be careful when perusing the internet for solutions or advice on how to deal with such problems. Articles such as this should not be a substitute for professional medical advice, as they are only meant as an informative guide for you to take that first step in skin care solution. Consult your physician before following any tip you may have read about or for any medical concerns.

Where can I buy oil blotting sheets?
What are some stores I can find oil-blotting sheets at?
Honestly hun they are selling them everywhere now. You can buy them at C.V.S. , Target, Sephora, The Body Shop. You can even get free samples and plenty more. There a few tricks that I have learned to replace them:
1.) You can use the toilet covers, ya know the ones they have at public places.
2.) (just like the thing the girl above said) You can use hair roller sheets.
There a lot of replicas of them! Good Luck!!!
