Teresa de Miguel Miró
Do you have oily skin, but also notice tightness, flaking, or a lack of radiance? Don't neglect it this summer. Discover how to properly hydrate it without increasing sebum and achieve a fresh, healthy, and balanced complexion.
Oily and dehydrated skin in summer: why is it a problem?
Although it may sound contradictory, oily skin can also be dehydrated . This happens when the hydrolipidic barrier is compromised and loses water, even though sebum production remains active. The result is skin that shines but feels rough, tight, or even flaky.
Professional advice: we detect this skin type through our free facial diagnosis in Madrid . where we also provide personalized advice to create your ideal facial care routine.
How can you tell if you have oily and dehydrated skin?
These are the most common symptoms:
- Excessive shine in the T-zone, but a dull appearance on the rest of the face.
- Areas with flaking or irritation.
- Rough and tight skin, even with a burning sensation.
- Enlarged and visible pores.
- Loss of elasticity or sagging, especially after age 40.
- Adverse reactions to products or changes in climate.
