HOW TO KEEP EXCESS SEBUM AND IMPURITIES UNDER CONTROL

A natural skincare routine for oily and impure skin

Oily skin is often misunderstood: shiny, prone to imperfections and impurities, yet equipped with a valuable natural defense — sebum. This lipidic substance protects, hydrates, and helps the skin remain firm and elastic over time.
The secret to a balanced, healthy-looking complexion is not to eliminate sebum completely, but to regulate its production while preserving the skin’s natural barrier.

Why Does the Skin Produce Too Much Sebum?

Sebum is a natural blend of lipids secreted by the sebaceous glands, essential for protecting the skin. However, hormonal factors, stress, diet, and harsh cleansers can overstimulate these glands, leading to excess shine, clogged pores, and breakouts.

Recognizing your skin type is the first step: those with oily or combination skin need to purify and hydrate with targeted products that respect the skin’s balance.

Step 1: Cleanse Gently

A gentle daily cleansing routine is essential to remove impurities, excess sebum, and makeup residue without disrupting the hydrolipidic film.
Avoid over-washing or using aggressive cleansers — this can trigger a rebound effect, stimulating even more sebum production.

Use morning and evening a hydrating and soothing lotion, such as Lozione Ortodermica or ToniBi, to gently remove impurities while restoring the skin’s natural pH.
Apply with a cotton pad and leave on for a few minutes before rinsing: your skin will look fresh, soft, and balanced.

Step 2: Purifying and Rebalancing Mask

Once or twice a week, treat your skin to a natural detox with Nuova Maschera.
Its formula, based on kaolin — a white clay with adsorbing properties — helps regulate sebum production, reduce shine, and refine skin texture.

Leave it on for 10–15 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water: your complexion will feel clean, smooth, and radiant.

Step 3: Hydrate to Restore Balance

A common mistake is to think that oily skin doesn’t need hydration. In reality, proper hydration helps regulate sebum secretion and keeps the skin soft and supple.

Apply daily Crema Balsamo C.R.B.  enriched with escin from Horse Chestnut extract and natural soothing agents. Its regenerating and protective action promotes balance, reduces imperfections, and restores the skin’s natural glow.

The Result: Purified, Matte, and Balanced Skin

With consistency and the right products, you can control excess sebum and impurities without over-drying the skin.
