FAQ
Why does the skin become oily?
Oily skin is mainly caused by hormonal activity or genetic predisposition, which stimulate the sebaceous glands to produce excess sebum. This overproduction can lead to enlarged pores, and shiny and greasy-looking skin.
Excess sebum is also one of the earliest contributors to acne-prone skin, as it can clog pores and lead to comedones and pimples.

Which ingredients help control oily skin?
Salicylic acid exfoliates the skin and unclog pores to help remove excess sebum, while Carnitine helps mattify the skin by supporting oil-control mechanisms, and Zinc PCA supports balanced sebum production while providing hydration.
Why should I hydrate my oily skin?
Hydration supports the skin barrier by maintaining water balance in the stratum corneum, even in oily skin. A healthy skin barrier is particularly important for acne-prone skin, as barrier impairment is commonly associated with increased skin sensitivity and discomfort.
What is the best routine to control oily skin?
Cleanse thoroughly to remove daily impurities and excess sebum using a non-comedogenic cleanser formulated for acne-prone skin, then apply a lightweight toner to refine skin texture, and finish with a mattifying product to control oiliness and keep the skin shine-free throughout the day.
