Skincare Myth: Oily Skin Doesn't Need Moisturizer
Think oily skin and moisturizer don't mix?
Think again.
When oily skin becomes dehydrated, your skin may actually produce more oil as it tries to compensate.
The trick isn't skipping moisturizer — it's choosing the right one.
Look for lightweight, non-comedogenic (less likely to clog pores) formulas that provide hydration without feeling heavy.
And remember: skin type can change over time, so the routine that worked five years ago may not be the right routine today.
