Ever feel like managing oily skin is a never-ending cycle? Your skin is oily so you use a product to get rid of the oil, then your skin becomes tight and dry so you use a product to moisturize, which often causes the oiliness to return. But there is a way to stop this cycle and achieve healthy, balanced skin. The key is using the right products to help your skin maintain the ideal amount of oil in the skin.

Oil (sebum) is produced by sebaceous glands. Normal sebum production performs the important job of lubricating your skin. Sebum also carries with it dead skin cells shedding from your hair follicle walls. The amount of sebum an individual generates is determined by genetics (and often increases during adolescence). While excess sebum is not directly responsible for acne, it can contribute to clogged pores.
