Q&A Oily skin
Why is exfoliation so important for oily skin?
Since small pores are what give the impression of smoothness, oily skin’s larger pores can make it appear rough. Excess dead skin cells and blackheads can actually stretch a pore too making it appear even larger. By deep cleansing the pores of this cellular debris, exfoliation makes larger pores appear smaller.
If I have oily skin, do I still have to moisturize? Yes, absolutely. The biggest mistake is to strip away all oil, because the skin reacts by creating even more oil.
