WHAT IS OILY SKIN?

Oily skin is a skin type characterised by overactive sebaceous (oil) glands.

This excess sebum can lead to a shiny appearance, particularly across the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin), as well as clogged pores and blemishes – common symptoms of acne.

Unlike dehydration or dryness, oily skin tends to feel slick rather than tight, but it can still experience surface-level dryness if not properly balanced. This concern can also contribute to visibly enlarged pores, and uneven application of makeup.

WHAT CAUSES OILY SKIN?

Several factors contribute to oily skin, including:

  • Genetics (often inherited)
  • Hormonal fluctuations (e.g., during adolescence, menstruation, or stress)
  • Overuse of harsh skincare products that strip the skin
  • Dehydration, causing skin to produce more oil as compensation
  • Environmental influences such as humidity or heat

Managing oily skin effectively means finding the right balance between reducing excess oil without stripping the skin of essential moisture.

UNDERSTANDING THE IMPACT OF OILY SKIN

Oily skin isn’t just about appearance – it can influence how your skin feels day to day.

Persistent oiliness may lead to a heavy or congested sensation, leaving skin feeling weighed down or less fresh throughout the day. Over time, excess sebum can also contribute to blocked pores and uneven skin tone, affecting overall skin clarity and texture.

At Beauchamp Aesthetics, we aim to restore balance – helping your skin feel lighter, clearer, and more comfortable while supporting long-term skin health.
