Hello beautiful people!,i trust you are all doing well,me ehn i have been trying my best,thank you for showing me nothing but love on this new feature,but don't forget your comments are really important.Last week,we talked about different skin types,and how to take care of our skin basically,but this week i would be telling you all you need to know about the oily skin type,so you had better shared this post with that person you know has an oily skin so they will be happy with you.

*OILY SKIN.
It is a skin type characterized by a shinny appearance.A build up sebum in the ducts and hair follicles stretches the pores which become enlarged.Depending on how the skin is cared for,the pores may be open or blocked,open pores provide a route for bacteria which causes spot and infections.Blocked pores often result in comedones.

The thicker coating of the sebum on the skin delays the rate at which desquamation takes place,instead of being shed evenly,the surface cell remains struck down attracting more dust and grime.Meanwhle,new cells continue to be produced in the epidermis so that theoverall thickness of the skin increases.This together with the extra fatty content of the epidermis gives the skin a dull and shallow appearance.

Oily skin is recognised by the following;
                                                          *Uneven texture.
                                                          *Large pores.
                                                          *Comedones.
                                                          *Milia.
                                                          *Papules.
                                                          *Pustules.
                                                          *Shiny(due to excess sebum).
                                                          *Dull complexion(due to dehydration).
 A known cause of oily skin is hormone imbalance.
