Ceramides Skincare
For Oily Skin

Oily skin types can be characterised by shiny skin and enlarged pores, and can often result in blackheads, whiteheads and acne-prone skin if not met with effective everyday care. Oily skin is typically hereditary, however excess oil production can be a result of heightened hormone levels.

Oily skin is caused by an overproduction of sebum by the sebaceous glands in skin. Sebum is comprised of fat molecules called lipids which provide your skin with moisture and protection. Although sebum is vital for healthy skin, when an overproduction is left unmanaged, excess sebum can be known to clog pores and cause acne-prone skin, reinforcing the importance of effective skincare for oily skin types. Non-comedogenic moisturisers and cleansers, such as those in the CeraVe range, work to effectively hydrate and remove impurities from the skin without clogging pores, making ideal products for oily skin types.

Cleanse skin twice per day

When choosing a cleanser for oily skin it is important to look for a product that works to effectively cleanse skin whilst respecting the protective skin barrier to avoid over stripping. The CeraVe Foaming Cleanser makes an ideal cleanser for oily skin types as it deeply cleanses skin to remove impurities and avoid clogged pores, whilst it is also formulated with ceramides and hyaluronic acid to support the natural skin barrier.

Hydrate with a non-comedogenic moisturiser

Moisturisers for oily skin are typically formulated as non-greasy and fast-absorbing to avoid excess shine. The CeraVe Facial Moisturising Lotion not only boasts these features, but it is also a non-comedogenic moisturiser meaning it does not clog pores which is a common concern for oily skin types.

Choose a non-greasy eye cream

When choosing an eye cream for oily skin, not only is it important to find a product that offers a reduced appearance in dark circles and puffiness, but also to find one that won't increase the amount of shine on skin. The CeraVe Eye Repair Cream is non-greasy, fast absorbing and non-comedogenic, making the ideal choice of skincare for oily skin types.
