Heat and oily skin

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

Although we’re really enjoying the hot summer weather, it does tend to make the skin get oilier. In these conditions, skin is usually happier when you’re using a foam cleanser. Yonka gel nettoyant is one of my favorites. Not all foam cleansers are eye friendly, but this one is. It foams and feels light, but still takes off that stubborn eye makeup, a nice combination.

If you wear a lot of sunscreen (and since it’s summertime, I sure hope you’re extra careful about applying sunscreen), just be mindful to exfoliate more often. If you haven’t tried it, Blinc Resurf.a.stic is a great choice. It’s super easy and does a great job sweeping off dead cells that can lead to clogged pores. I also love Bion Glycolic Cleanser for those folks who get super oily, like I do. It just gives a great clean feeling, without stripping the skin, plus the glycolic acid also helps rid the skin of dead cells too.
