Tips For Oily Skin

Dealing with oily skin can be a nightmare! After years of trial and error, I have finally discovered the best products and tricks to keep my skin looking fresh and matte. Stay tuned as I spill all my oily skin secrets in this blog! 

To start, I recommend making washing your face a priority. It's as simple as using a gentle exfoliating scrub at least two to three times a week. This will help remove any oil and dirt that may be clogging your pores, as well as get rid of dead skin cells to leave your skin feeling smooth and clean. In addition to exfoliating, it's crucial to use a mild face wash daily to maintain a fresh and healthy complexion, even on the days you skip exfoliation. 

Properly prepping your skin before applying foundation is essential for a flawless finish. For those with oily skin, a mattifying primer is a necessary addition to your makeup routine. Check out our How to Apply Mineral Makeup blog for tips on prepping your skin for the best makeup application. The primer will help control oil in your t-zone and keep your makeup in place, while also reducing the appearance of pores for a smoother look. Don't let oily skin ruin your makeup - include a mattifying primer in your makeup kit today! 

If you don't have a mattifying primer, setting powders will be your go-to solution! After applying the foundation, setting it in place with a setting powder is essential to prevent patchiness and unevenness. Setting powders also absorb facial oils and provide a soft matte finish. Consider trying NCinc's Miracle Veil Powder for all these benefits and more! Check out our blog on How to Apply Mineral Makeup to learn more about the benefits of our Miracle Veil. 

Reapplying makeup throughout the day can lead to a cakey appearance that no one wants. Instead of adding another layer of foundation or concealer, opt for a translucent powder to touch up and control shine. It's best to avoid thick layers of makeup in the first place to prevent the need for constant touch-ups.
