Oiliness

Symptoms

  • Shininess
  • Blackheads and congestion
  • Large, open pores
  • Symptoms that get worse as the day goes on

Solution

Overactive sebum glands cause oiliness that can lead to that congested feeling or acne outbreaks. Look out for products containing salicylic acid to clear out congested pores - and while it's tempting, don't skip the moisturiser.
