Oily Skin Driving You Crazy? Here Are the Oily Skin Care Products That Actually Help
Your skin produces a natural oil called sebum to keep it moisturised and protected. But when sebum production gets out of hand, it generates a domino effect of issues: a shiny face by mid-morning, blocked pores, recurrent breakouts, blackheads, and huge pores that appear hard to decrease. Oily skin is not a defect. That is a skin type, and, like any skin type, it does best when you use the right products in the right order. More washing doesn’t help. Not using moisturiser makes it worse. What truly works is a regular oily skin routine with purpose-built oily skin care products that regulate oil, cleanse pores and protect the skin without triggering additional grease.
That’s what you get with the PrakritPurity Oily Skin collection, developed to reduce shine and refine pores with light, balanced skincare.
What Oily Skin Is Really Up Against
If you have oily skin, you probably know all of these:
- Excess shine- Your skin appears oily after a few hours of washing, even without adding anything
- Pimples and frequent breakouts - Dead skin cells and excess sebum combine and block the pores, creating a habitat for acne-causing bacteria.
- Large pores - Oily skin is often characterised by larger pores, particularly on the nose and cheeks.
- Blackheads - stubborn blackheads not removed by washing, caused by oxidised oil retained in open pores.
- Uneven texture - Oil buildup may make the skin seem bumpy or rough rather than smooth.
The best skincare routine for oily skin takes all of them into account without depleting the skin so much that it compensates by producing even more oil.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What causes oily skin?
Reasons for Oily Skin: Sebaceous glands become hyperactive, producing excess sebum, which leads to oily skin. Oiliness may also be exacerbated by factors such as heredity, hormones, humidity, stress, and using improper skincare products. Appropriate oily skin care products help manage sebum production rather than just eliminating all oil.
2. Which is the best face cleanser for oily skin?
Best is a face cleanser that contains oil-absorbing clays, exfoliating actives and a pH-balanced composition. PrakritPurity’s Oil Clear Face Wash contains Kaolin Clay, Bentonite Clay, Salicylic Acid and Witch Hazel substances proven to regulate oil and clear pores.
3. Can you use a moisturiser on oily skin?
Yes, it's crucial. Not using moisturiser might lead the skin to produce extra oil to compensate. Prakrit Purity Oil Balance Face Cream is a specially formulated moisturiser for oily skin. It is light, non-greasy and oil-balancing, without blocking pores.
4. What’s the best sunscreen for oily skin?
Choose a non-comedogenic, matte finish product that won’t add shine or clog pores. Prakrit Purity’s Oil Balance Sunscreen SPF30 PA+++ has Witch Hazel, Salicylic Acid and Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) to help reduce oil and protect against UV.
5. How frequently should greasy skin be washed?
Recommended morning and night, two times daily. Washing too much dries out the skin, which causes it to create even more oil. Instead, washing more often is less effective than using a mild, pH-balanced face wash for oily skin, such as PrakritPurity's Oil Clear Face Wash.
