Oily Skin Myth

Many people believe having oily skin means skip moisturizing.  This is a myth and couldn't be farther from the truth. Dehydrated skin will overcompensate and end up producing more oil. This is the case for mosh with oily skin. Hydrate is exactly what is needed. Drink plenty of water it's the best way to hydrate your skin from within. Topically use a gentle cleanser that is alcohol free and water based to remove dirt, then moisturize with KiKi's Incredibly Smooth Shea! I personally wash my face with warm water each evening, followed by witch hazel toner and KiKi's Incredibly Smooth Shea Butter. I have found this to change my facial skin from oily to normal. All it needed was increased water intake, a reduction of harsh oil stripping cleansers replaced with water, witch hazel toner and moisture using KiKi's Incredibly Smooth Shea and capiche no more oily skin. I hope this works for those suffering from oily skin. The overproduction of oil in the skin is usually related to dehydrated skin. Attempting to strip the skin of oil will more than likely increase the oil production because what is really needed is hydration not drying.
