Ever felt your moisturizer melting off by noon? You're not alone. Over 60% of people with oily skin say their face cream leaves them shiny or breaks them out. The culprit: heavy oils and pore-clogging ingredients. Your skin's already pumping out extra sebum, so dense creams just add fuel to the fire.
Your skin produces sebum for protection. But when hormones or genetics crank production up, your face gets greasy fast. Most generic creams contain ingredients like mineral oil or lanolin, which sit on top of skin, trapping oil and sweat underneath.
Don't think skipping moisturizer will dry out oily skin. It just makes your skin produce even more oil. Also, avoid harsh alcohols—they strip skin, causing irritation and rebound oiliness. If a cream feels heavy or sticky, try something lighter.
If you're tired of shine and breakouts, Lotus Botanicals provides face creams made with plant-based ingredients designed for oily skin. Our formulas are 100% vegan, cruelty-free, and don't use parabens, sulfates, or silicones. Check out our range at lotusbotanicals.com for gentle hydration that keeps you fresh all day.
1. Can I use a moisturizer if I have oily skin?
Absolutely. The right moisturizer hydrates without adding extra oil or clogging pores. Skipping it can actually make your skin oilier.
2. How do I know if a face cream is non-comedogenic?
Look for the term 'non-comedogenic' on the packaging. It means the product won’t block your pores or cause blackheads.
3. What ingredients should I avoid in oily skin creams?
Skip mineral oil, lanolin, and silicones. These can trap oil and make breakouts worse.
4. Is gel-based or cream-based better for oily skin?
Gel-based is usually lighter and absorbs quickly, making it ideal for oily or acne-prone skin.
5. Will Lotus Botanicals' face creams make my skin shiny?
No, our formulas are designed to mattify and hydrate without adding shine. We use niacinamide and plant extracts that help control oil.
6. How often should I apply face cream if my skin is oily?
Twice a day is best—morning and night after cleansing. Using less often can lead to dehydration and even more oil.
7. Can oily skin use face creams with SPF?
Yes, just choose an oil-free, matte-finish SPF moisturizer. It protects without making you greasy.
8. Do Lotus Botanicals products contain parabens or sulfates?
No, our products are free from parabens, sulfates, and silicones. We focus on clean, plant-based ingredients.
9. Is it normal for oily skin to feel dry after washing?
Yes, washing can strip oils, sometimes making skin feel tight. That's why a lightweight moisturizer is crucial.
10. Why does my face cream cause breakouts?
It might have pore-clogging ingredients like heavy oils or silicones. Switching to a non-comedogenic, oil-free formula can help.
