Although having oily skin is indeed a virtue, mastering the art of oil regulation can be a challenge. This is particularly crucial in the summer when high temperatures and increased humidity can cause irreparable damage to your skin. Fortunately, all it takes is a carefully-curated oily skin care routine to keep summer skin issues far, far away.

If you have oily skin and are worried about the upcoming summer, here are some ways to survive the season:

Use a mild cleanser to avoid irritation

Facial cleansing is an important part of maintaining good skin, but too much cleaning can be drying. In addition to removing dirt and oil, a mild cleanser should replenish moisture and calm irritation. Remove dirt, oil, and makeup from your face on a daily basis using a foamy oil-free face cleanser like the Ivatherm Aquafil Hydra Cleansing Foam.

Apply a hydrating lotion to damp skin

To avoid breakouts and clogged pores, use a moisturizer with no oil. This will keep your skin supple and less likely to produce excess oil. Choose an organic product like Gerocossen's Mattifying Cream For Oily Skin, which includes Manuka BIO honey. This ingredient hydrates the skin, restores its pH balance, and makes the skin seem more even, while bio-sulfur helps in preventing excess sebum, clears pores, and puts off acne. The product also works well as a foundation base.

Slap on sunblock every day

As skin becomes very dry from sun exposure, its natural response is to produce more sebum. Using a sunscreen with a high sun protection factor (SPF 30+), like the Ivatherm Sunlight Dry Touch Very High Sun Protection Cream, every day can help avoid both dryness and greasy skin.

Always have blotting sheets on hand

Using blotting sheets periodically throughout the day might help keep the skin from looking greasy. To absorb oil, lightly pat the area around your T-zone whenever you find it getting greasy.

Keep your hands off your face

The temptation to touch your face is real, but remember that doing so can transfer oil, filth, and germs from your palms to your face. Keep your hands clean and only use them to wash, moisturize, or apply sunscreen and cosmetics to your face.
