Greasy skin isn't just a cosmetic hassle—it can make you feel uncomfortable, trigger breakouts, and mess with makeup. If your forehead feels slick by noon, you're not alone. Oily skin comes down to genetics, hormones, and sometimes climate. Sebaceous glands kick into high gear and flood your face with excess oil. The wrong cleanser can make things worse.
Harsh soaps strip away too much oil, which only tells your skin to produce even more. Gentle yet effective cleansers, recommended by dermatologists, remove dirt and oil without leaving your skin tight or irritated. Look for formulas that balance oil control and hydration.
Scrubbing or using abrasive tools might feel satisfying, but it can trigger more oil production and even micro-tears. Stick to gentle cleansing and save exfoliation for 1–2 times per week, max.
Lotus Botanicals offers a range of dermatologist recommended face washes for oily skin, loaded with plant-based actives and zero harsh additives. If you're ready for a vegan, cruelty-free cleanser that controls oil naturally, check out our face wash collection and find what suits your routine.
1. Can I use a dermatologist recommended face wash for oily skin if I have sensitive skin too?
Absolutely. Many dermatologist approved face washes for oily skin are gentle enough for sensitive types. Look for sulfate-free and fragrance-free formulas to avoid irritation.
2. How often should I wash my face if I have oily skin?
Twice a day—morning and night—is ideal. Overwashing can strip your skin and make oiliness worse.
3. Will using a face wash for oily skin make my skin dry or flaky?
Not if you pick a balanced, hydrating formula. Avoid cleansers with alcohol or strong surfactants, and always use a lightweight moisturizer afterwards.
4. Are Lotus Botanicals face washes safe for daily use?
Yes, our face washes are designed for everyday use, with plant-based ingredients and no harsh chemicals that could damage your skin.
5. What ingredients should I look for in a face wash for oily skin?
Ingredients like salicylic acid, niacinamide, clay, and charcoal help absorb excess oil and keep pores clear. Avoid heavy oils and silicones.
6. Is it true that foaming cleansers are best for oily skin?
Not always. Some foaming cleansers strip too much oil, leading to rebound shine. Gel-based and mild foaming options are usually safer bets.
7. Can I skip moisturizer if my skin feels oily after washing?
No, even oily skin needs hydration. Use a non-comedogenic, gel-based moisturizer to keep things balanced.
8. Do Lotus Botanicals products help with acne as well as oil?
Our face washes target excess oil and contain actives like niacinamide and salicylic acid, which can help reduce breakouts and keep pores clear.
9. What's the best way to apply face wash for oily skin?
Use lukewarm water, a small amount of cleanser, and massage gently with fingertips for about 30 seconds before rinsing.
10. Are natural face washes effective for oily skin?
Many natural formulas work well, especially those with clay, tea tree, or plant-based actives. Just make sure they're dermatologist recommended and non-comedogenic.
