Skin Cream, Beauty & Health Information

Skin types are defined in very precise terms: oily skin has excess oil, dry skin does not have enough moisture and combination skin is a combination of oily and dry skin. Although sometimes it's not so easy to recognize which is which. For example, some people can have normal dry skin while others can have very dry skin.

Sensitive, oily skin is one of those "in between" types of skin that is neither one nor the other, and may be difficult to treat. Let's take a look at some ways you can deal with this problem.

How to Treat Sensitive Oily Skin

As with normal oily skin, sensitive oily skin is prone to acne and breakouts. However, traditional acne products usually contain retinols or salicylic acid which can easily irritate sensitive oily skin. Instead of using products that contain these ingredients, look for products that contain Vitamin B.

In fact, for years it has been believed that there is a link between acne and Vitamin B deficiency. Vitamin B2 deficiency leads to oilier skin. In addition, Vitamin B5 deficiency produces coenzyme A deficiency which leads to an increase in sebum production.

You can increase your Vitamin B intake by consuming meat products such as eggs and dairy. You can also include flaxseed or flax oil into your diet since it is high in Vitamin B.

Also try to drinking plenty of water to help control sensitive oily skin. Maintaining skin hydrated helps balance the levels of oil in your body and skin. Even slight dehydration can increase the production of sebum.

Sensitive Oily Skin & Skin Care Products

Sensitive facial skin can make it hard to find a wide range of products. So, when you finally find a product that works for you, stick with it. Vitamin B and its derivatives -such as niacinamide - are not the only ingredients you should look for.

Gentle cleansers include products that contain tea tree oil. This ingredient is used to help deal with acne and is more gentle than benzoyl peroxide. If you decide to use products with this ingredient, make sure to start slowly because it can cause a bit of irritation.

Sensitive skin lotions and natural moisturizers that contain oatmeal or aloe vera are a good solution for sensitive oily skin. Both of these ingredients are soothing, however, make sure that the product is water based so that it will absorbs quickly.

Another thing you should keep an eye on is the alcohol and filler content of your sensitive skin products. Stay away from products that contain alcohol within the first five ingredients because these products will inevitably dry out and irritate your skin.

Basically, sensitive skin treatments don't have to contain a secret ingredient to work for sensitive oily skin. Just make sure that whichever product you decide to use can also help treat sebum production and acne.
