Understanding Oily Skin: Myths and Facts with Stature
Caring for oily skin can be tricky, with conflicting advice and persistent myths leading to confusion. Stature is here to clear the air with two common myths and two important facts about oily skin, along with tips on how our naturally sophisticated products can help you maintain healthy, balanced skin.
Myth 1: Oily Skin Doesn’t Need Moisturizer
One of the biggest misconceptions is that moisturizing oily skin will make it oilier. The truth is that skipping moisturizer can actually make your skin produce more oil to compensate for the lack of hydration. It’s essential to use a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer. Stature’s Rosemary & Lime Lotion is perfect for oily skin, providing moisture without clogging pores or leaving a greasy finish.
Myth 2: Oily Skin Should Be Washed Frequently
Many people think that washing oily skin multiple times a day will control excess sebum. In reality, over-washing can strip your skin of its natural oils, prompting it to produce even more oil as a defense mechanism. Instead, cleanse your skin twice a day with a gentle, pH-balanced cleanser. Stature’s sulfate-free body washes, like the Lemon Crème & Melon Body Wash, offer a refreshing cleanse while maintaining your skin’s natural balance.
Fact 1: Oily Skin Can Be Dehydrated
It might sound contradictory, but oily skin can be dehydrated, lacking water but producing excess oil to compensate. Hydration is key to keeping the skin balanced. Products containing botanical waters, such as those found in Stature’s body washes, infuse the skin with natural moisture and help regulate oil production without adding heaviness.
Fact 2: Natural Oils Can Help Balance Sebum
Many believe that using oils on oily skin will only make it worse, but the right natural oils can help balance sebum production. Non-comedogenic oils like jojoba and safflower oil, featured in Stature products, mimic the skin’s natural sebum, signaling the skin to slow down oil production. This results in a more balanced, matte appearance without dryness.
Conclusion
Understanding the true needs of oily skin can make all the difference in achieving a balanced complexion. Stature’s skincare line is formulated with 100% premium ingredients designed to provide lightweight hydration and balance oil production. Embrace a routine that nourishes and calms your skin for a naturally sophisticated glow.
