Even though you think your skin is oily, it can still be dehydrated. Dehydrated skin means it is lacking water and feels tight but may still produce oil. In fact, it’s probably over-producing oil to compensate for the lack of moisture in the skin, which is why dehydrated skin can easily get mistaken for oily skin. Dehydrated skin is common among those with oily and acne-prone skin who use harsh products that strip the skin off water. It is important to watch what you are putting on your skin, so as to not strip and dry it out - making your skin over produce oils that then lead to breakouts!

My 3 skincare tips:
- Make sure that your skincare products don’t strip the acid mantle of your skin. After a cleanse, your skin should NEVER feel tight or dry.
- Use an oil based moisturiser suitable for your skin type. This will give you long lasting protection from dehydration.
- use a good SPF.
