Beauty Edit: Oil Control

SweetAwards February 2025

Reaching adulthood and still struggling with oily skin, enlarged pores, breakouts, and dark spots 😣 can be really frustrating — especially when new concerns like loss of firmness and early signs of aging start to appear. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. The good news? 🎉 You can control oiliness, treat imperfections, and protect your skin from aging — all without complicating your routine.

That’s why we created the Beauty Edit OIL CONTROL 🧴: a curated set of 7 essential products that work together to balance your skin, control excess shine, and target signs like spots and wrinkles. All while respecting oily skin’s sensitivity and keeping it properly hydrated.

💦 Start your day with a gentle yet effective cleanse using A DERMA Biology AC Purifying Foaming Gel. It removes impurities and controls oil without drying out your skin, leaving it fresh, clean, and ready for what’s next.

🌿 Next, hydrate deeply and calm irritation with ANUA Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner, which evens out your complexion and preps your skin to absorb your treatments better.

🧖 Twice a week, treat yourself to the YOUTHLAB Blemish Purifying Mask. This gentle exfoliating mask regulates oil, detoxifies, minimizes pores, and reveals a fresh, matte, and radiant look.

✨ When pesky spots appear, reach for the COSRX Clear Fit Master Patch — ultra-thin and nearly invisible, these patches speed healing and extract impurities without irritating your skin.

🌟 For a more even tone and visibly reduced dark spots, the EUCERIN Anti-Pigment Skin Perfecting Serum delivers balanced hydration with a fresh, glowing finish you’ll love.

🍃 The BEAUTY OF JOSEON Red Bean Water Gel is the perfect finishing touch for oily skin: lightweight, hydrating, it controls excess oil while visibly reducing wrinkles for a revitalized, balanced complexion.

☀️ And of course, daily sun protection is a must: AXIS-Y No-Stress Physical Sunscreen SPF50+ creates an effective barrier against sun damage with a hydrating gel-essence texture that leaves a natural, residue-free, shine-free finish.

 


🧪 Understanding oily skin in adulthood

Dealing with oily skin as an adult can be an even bigger challenge. Excess sebum, often linked to hormonal changes during adolescence, can persist due to factors like ovulation, stress, menopause, genetics, hot and humid climates 🌡️, and unsuitable skincare choices. Adult oily skin often comes with extra concerns: spots, enlarged pores, minor imperfections, and early aging signs like loss of firmness and fine lines.

That’s why a routine that balances oil control ⚖️ with hydration and anti-aging care is essential for healthy, radiant skin. Neglecting any of these aspects can lead to imbalances — from excess oil and irritation to dryness or premature aging.


🛍️ The importance of choosing the right products

Oily skin doesn’t always need harsh or drying products. In fact, overusing strong cleansers or frequent exfoliation can trigger more oil production and irritation 🚫. That’s why every product in the Beauty Edit OIL CONTROL is carefully selected to control oiliness gently, protect your skin barrier, and promote balanced hydration.

For example, the toner is not just refreshing — it restores skin’s ideal pH, reduces redness, and prepares your face for the next steps. The brightening serum targets dark spots ✨ while the hydrating gel controls shine and visibly reduces wrinkles, combining the best ingredients for oily, aging skin.


💡 Tips to boost results

✅ Avoid over-washing your face to prevent stimulating excess oil.
✅ Use lukewarm water 🚿, as hot water can irritate and increase oiliness.
✅ Maintain a balanced diet 🥗 rich in antioxidants to fight aging from within.
✅ Avoid touching your face with dirty hands 🙌 to prevent infections and breakouts.
✅ Always moisturize, even oily skin needs hydration to regulate sebum.
✅ Use sunscreen daily 🌞, even on cloudy days or indoors, to protect against sun damage and premature aging.
✅ If you experience frequent or severe breakouts, consult a dermatologist 👩‍⚕️.

 

With this knowledge 📚 and the Beauty Edit OIL CONTROL, your skincare routine becomes simple, effective, and practical — delivering visibly healthier, balanced, and glowing skin every day 🌟.
