Best Products for Oily Skin

Understanding oily skin is the first step in selecting the best serums for your use.  Oily skin produces excess sebum, making it appear shiny. It can also make it more prone to acne, especially during adolescence.  Many people think that dehydrated or dry skin is simply the opposite of oily skin.  Like many other processes in the human body, it’s just not that simple.  Oily skin can also be dehydrated skin, which can lead to dullness and fine lines.  Dehydrated skin occurs when the skin loses too much water in the spaces between the cells. Its not due to too little oil.  In fact, when the skin lacks water it often reacts by producing more sebum to try to compensate.  This can lead to a cycle of oiliness and further dehydration.  So, what to look for in a skin serum if you have oily, but dehydrated skin?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             First, consider a serum with Niacinamide.  This vitamin helps to regulate sebum production, reducing excess oil.  In some people Niacinamide can cause redness or flushing of the skin.  While this is usually transient, if bothersome the problem is usually solved by simple dilution of the product.                                                                                                                                                Second, choose a serum with Hyaluronic Acid which will hydrate the skin by drawing water into the extracellular skin structure and help to retain it there.

In formulating our products, we have taken these needs into consideration. Our Top Tier Serums contain both Niacinamine and Hyaluronic Acid, making the best choice for dry skin as well as oily, yet dehydrated skin.
