If you've got oily skin, you know the struggle. By noon, your face feels greasy, your makeup starts sliding, and breakouts pop up right when you don't want them. It's not just annoying—excess oil can clog pores and trigger acne. Most people try stripping their skin with harsh cleansers, but that just makes things worse.
Your sebaceous glands are in overdrive, pumping out more oil than your skin needs. This can be genetic, but humidity, stress, and heavy products make it worse. Sometimes, using the wrong face wash or moisturizer is the real culprit—think thick creams or cleansers packed with sulfates.
So many people think skipping moisturizer will help. It won’t. Your skin will just crank out even more oil to make up for it. Using alcohol-heavy toners can be another trap—they sting, dry you out, and often leave your face feeling tight but not truly clean. Mixing random products without checking the labels is risky; some combos can pill up or trigger breakouts.
Stick with the same combo for at least two weeks before judging results. Consistency beats constant switching.
If you want a combo that’s vegan, cruelty-free, and gentle on oily skin, Lotus Botanicals provides gel-based cleansers and featherlight moisturizers powered by ingredients like niacinamide and green tea. We skip parabens, sulfates, and silicones—so your skin gets the balance it craves without the greasy aftermath.
1. Can I use the same face wash and moisturizer combo year-round for oily skin?
Yes, but you might need to adjust for seasonal changes. In humid months, stick with lightweight gels; in cooler weather, add a touch more hydration if you notice tightness.
2. Is using moisturizer necessary if I have oily skin?
Absolutely. Skipping moisturizer can make your skin produce even more oil. Choose a water-based, non-comedogenic formula to keep skin balanced.
3. Will Lotus Botanicals products clog my pores?
No. Our formulas are non-comedogenic and oil-free, designed specifically for those prone to clogged pores and excess shine.
4. How do I know if a combo is working for my skin?
You should notice less midday shine, fewer breakouts, and skin that feels comfortable—not tight or greasy. Give new products about two weeks before judging.
5. Should I avoid fragrances in my face wash and moisturizer?
Fragrances can irritate sensitive or acne-prone skin. If you’re frequently breaking out, look for fragrance-free or naturally scented options.
6. Can I use a clay-based cleanser every day?
Clay-based cleansers are great for oily skin, but daily use can be drying. Try using them two or three times a week, alternating with a gentle gel cleanser.
7. What ingredients help control oil without overdrying?
Niacinamide, green tea, and gentle acids like salicylic acid all help regulate oil without stripping your skin’s moisture.
8. How much moisturizer should I apply if I have oily skin?
A pea-sized amount is usually enough. Applying too much can leave a residue, but too little won’t hydrate your skin properly.
9. Is it safe to use Lotus Botanicals with prescription acne medication?
Yes. Our products are gentle and free from harsh chemicals, so they work well alongside most prescription treatments. Always check with your dermatologist first.
10. Will washing my face more often help control oil?
Not really. Over-washing can make your skin produce even more oil. Stick to twice a day with a gentle cleanser.
