If you have overactive sebaceous
glands, either because it is your natural skin type or you have overactive
hormones, you end up with having blackheads, a buildup of oil on the skin
producing a dull texture, and overly large pores. Skin care products that can
strip away the moisture from the skin should be avoided to prevent the skin
from drying up, and clogging pores and sebum underneath it.
An oil-free moisturizer is best to
keep the hydration of the top layer of skin and to counter the drying effects
of acne treatments. A mild exfoliating scrub is recommended to remove the dull
residue on the skin, although it should be avoided during acne breakouts. Scrubbing,
cleaning and handling of the skin should be done gently to avoid stimulation of
sebum production which can cause further complications.
