So you have oily skin. Here’s how to deal with it

Dr Upashna Timothy breaks down ways to manage excess sebum production in the face, especially during summer.

People usually have oily or dry skin. But no matter what skin type you have, it is true that the skin, especially on the face, tends to get oily in the summer. Heat and humidity can play a role in making your skin more oily than it usually is. When the temperature rises, your skin produces more oil, which may lead to getting pimples and acne on the face. But oily skin isn’t always a bad thing. A certain amount of oil on your skin is inevitable and can give you a glow. Likewise, when people exercise, they burn calories and sweat, which can also make their skin glow. But anything excess isn’t good. So as the oiliness of the skin increases, it can lead to various skin problems.
