Face Creams for Oily Skin

Face moisturiser for Oily Skin

Shop the best moisturisers for oily skin, from Lancôme Australia If you suffer from clogged pores, excess oil, or your skin always looks shiny by the end of the day, you fall into the oily skin category. It may seem natural to use drying products to combat this, but actually, a good moisturiser for oily skin can keep your skin hydrated, keep excess oil at bay and help prevent clogged pores.

Lancôme’s Hydra Zen Anti-Stress Moisturising Cream-Gel Day Cream is a moisturiser cream for oily skin that provides 12 hours of intense hydration in a unique cream-gel formula that improves the skin's moisture barrier function and locks moisture into the skin without creating excess oil. Skin feels softer, fresher and appears less oily and shiny.

How to choose the best face moisturiser for oily skin

When choosing a face cream for oily skin, it’s best to steer away from super thick, heavy formulas and opt for a more lightweight, thinner consistency. A gel or light cream texture such as Lancôme’s Absolue Soft Cream will hydrate the skin without feeling like you have a heavy layer of product on your face, and allowing your skin to breathe.

If you fall into the oily skin category, it’s best to avoid face creams that contain oils such as coconut oil, sunflower oil or hazelnut oil. Rather, look for ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin B3 and Niacinamide which will work to prevent sebum production and deeply hydrate the skin without clogging pores.

How to incorporate a face cream for oily skin into your skincare routine:

1. First, cleanse away the dirt and debris from the day. Gel Eclat Clarifying Cleanser Pearly Foam penetrates deep into the pores to gently liberate the skin from excess oil, impurities and toxins.
2. Oily skin types often hold on tightly to impurities, so an extra cleansing step like using a toner can be helpful. Tonique Douceur is enriched with plant extracts and gently tones and refines skin texture, removing any remaining makeup or debris.
3. Apply serums. Advanced Génifique helps to strengthen your skin’s barrier and improve your skin’s texture, radiance, elasticity, and firmness.
4. Finally, lock in moisture and protect your skin from external factors with a brightening moisturiser for oily skin such as Clarifique Milky Day Cream.
