Oily shine on the face often becomes the cause of a spoiled mood when, knowing about our problem, we lose confidence in our own attractiveness in the eyes of other people.
A shiny face was once considered a sign of beauty - in medieval Europe, especially in Spain, noble beauties smeared their cheeks and forehead with special lipstick, and commoners - with olive oil.
But today, glitter on the face looks untidy, deprives the image of freshness and pretty much spoils the makeup. That's why it's so important to take care of your skin, especially since it's not as difficult as it might seem.
5 reasons for oily face
Of course, in the summer heat or while working out in the gym, everyone’s face shines without exception. And it's not just about sweating - the face is not a place with profuse sweating. The rush of blood to the vessels and capillaries in the skin causes the sebaceous glands to intensively produce fat.
But this natural property of the skin does not always work only at the indicated moments.
There are different reasons for excessive sebum production and, as a result, a shiny face:
- climatic conditions (sharp change in climatic zone, heat, air humidity above 60%);
- microclimate of the room (staying in a dusty and stuffy room, working near the stove);
- digestive problems (skin condition greatly depends on the health of the intestines, liver and pancreas);
- hormonal surges and changes - puberty, menstruation, pregnancy and lactation, menopause;
- congenital skin type combined with improper care.
The type of skin that suffers from shine can be oily or combination ( fat forehead, nose, chin and dry cheeks). IN Lately cosmetologists distinguish a special, acquired type of skin - oily, and at the same time dry. More precisely, it is oily skin that suffers from dehydration, but continues to produce sebum.
All of the above types can be sensitive, although fatty type this is rather rare. Having determined your type, start eliminating shine using suitable products.
Emergency matting
No one argues that a long-term matting effect is obtained only with good care- regularly and using products designed for a specific skin type. But how to remove oily shine from your face if you don’t have two or three weeks left to get yourself in order?
For example, you need to look great this evening. Let's see how we can quickly solve the problem (albeit temporarily).
In 1 minute you can mattify your face with napkins and powder.To do this, the powder must be of a transparent shade, very finely ground, preferably from a series of mineral cosmetics. Some brands have loose powders in a brush case or with a membrane and puff included - they are convenient to carry in your cosmetic bag and they do their job better than regular compact powders. Never use tanning powder to hide a shiny forehead or nose, otherwise dark spots and lumps on the skin are guaranteed.
Before or instead of powder, you can use special anti-greasy cosmetic wipes. These thinnest napkins come in two types - dry and wet. The former act like a blotter, absorbing fat. The latter dissolve and absorb fat thanks to impregnation with tonic, and also mattify with talc, which they also contain. In general, this is the best emergency remedy, but there is also a minus - you will have to constantly think about whether it’s time to get your face wet.
Cosmetic water will refresh you in 15 minutes.A wonderful product for simple and quick care is cosmetic water in a spray. It can be micellar, thermal water or mineral spray. How to use them?
Let's take a few minutes to:
- take off earrings, glasses, close your eyes;
- lightly spray your face and neck with the spray;
- wait until the skin dries a little;
- fixing makeup.
Some manufacturers of cosmetic waters directly indicate on the packaging that their product can be applied to makeup throughout the day without fear that it will “float”. It's all about special sprayers that release something similar to a wet mist without leaving drops on the face. Cosmetic waters dissolve large fat molecules and even out the tone of the face - no need to wipe, and the skin does not shine.
Make a clay mask in 1 hour.If you are at home and have time, cleanse your face and apply a blue clay mask. This natural remedy absorbs oil not only from the surface, but also pulls out excess oil from the pores - this is a first-class cleansing before makeup. After the mask, apply moisturizer daily cream and proceed with your usual makeup - the matte effect of the mask will last at least 18 hours.
Basic anti-shine care
To reduce oily shine in the T zone, take care of your facial skin daily in three stages - cleansing, toning and moisturizing. You can avoid nourishing night creams, especially during the hot season.
Choose funds from hyaluronic acid for hydration, with oxygen for lipid balance combination skin, with plant extracts for velvety and purity (rose, ylang, chamomile, aloe).
Exfoliate twice a week mild remedy with small particles. You can prepare a home remedy: cereals in gauze bags, steamed for 1 minute in a cup of hot water, perfectly removes grease and dust, while gently tightening pores, exfoliating the layer of dead cells, refreshing and rejuvenating.
Excellent mattification yeast mask: Mash soft yeast a little in boiled water and apply this paste to your face, avoiding the eye area. After 20 minutes, rinse the mask with cool water, tone and moisturize your face. Yeast perfectly cleanses and tightens pores, and also prevents the appearance of pimples.
Simple tips will help reduce fat problems:
- stick to a moderate diet with a reduced amount of spices and the exclusion of smoked and fatty foods;
- wash your face with water at room temperature - hot water activates the sebaceous glands, and cold water dries it out;
- don't abuse artificial tan, since irradiation in a solarium heats the skin and triggers hormonal processes in it (melanin formation), which enhance the work of the sebaceous glands and at the same time make it drier;
- touch your face only with napkins or hands that have just been washed with soap, wash all your makeup brushes clean once a week, and your puff and sponges once every three days, this will protect you from germs and inflammation.
As you can see, getting rid of oily shine is not so difficult, the main thing is to know what you need for this. Choose the product you like and don’t forget to use it!

main reason- hard work sebaceous glands. This occurs due to a violation metabolic processes or hormonal imbalance- increased testosterone levels. Or due to age-related changes, when the overall skin tone deteriorates and at the same time the production of the hormone estrogen in the body decreases.
The point in using improvised means, such as washing with cold water and wiping with ice cubes, is to stimulate blood circulation. Oily skin tolerates prolonged contact with ice well; it is better to make ice from tea or a decoction of herbs with an anti-inflammatory effect. With dry skin you need to act faster and more delicately. The exception is thin skin, prone to irritation and redness due to closely located blood vessels.
It is important to choose products that will support the hydrolipid mantle, our natural defense. Good effect from components that improve microcirculation, with an astringent and anti-inflammatory effect: extracts of clove, burdock, chamomile, sage, essential oils of mint, calendula, geranium. It is important that the product is light - choose a fluid or gel.

Foundation It can be dense, but at the same time non-greasy and allowing the skin to breathe, and it will not lead to enlarged pores. The mineral components in the composition smooth and mattify the skin well and at the same time absorb excess sebum - care products also act on the same principle.
How do enlarged pores occur?
Their appearance can be provoked by creams containing lipid-replenishing components - in other words, saturated fatty textures. Or an unbalanced diet with a lot of fats and carbohydrates, alcohol, spices. They stimulate the sebaceous glands and, as a result, can expand the pores.
Is it possible to solve the problem without cosmetics?
Cold water does not dissolve fat well, and enlarged pores most often occur on oily skin. Special cleansers and water at room temperature, but not hot, work much better. Ice compresses, of course, give a feeling of freshness and tighten pores for a short time, but they are less effective than special lotions with a longer healing effect.
What care components help tighten pores?
Zinc - regulates the secretion of the sebaceous glands. Witch hazel extract - tightens pores. Saponin is a substance of plant origin that produces abundant foam with water and has astringent and cleansing properties. Basically a combination of these three active ingredients effectively cleanses pores, regulates sebum production, and has an astringent effect.
Does makeup, which is supposed to hide enlarged pores, worsen the condition of the skin?For oily skin, it is necessary to select products specially designed for this type - they usually add particles of mineral powder that absorb fat. The texture should be very light and breathable. As for powder, if you have oily skin, I would recommend using the loose version rather than the compact version.
