Does Oily Skin Need to Avoid Moisturiser?
Avoiding moisturiser does not reduce oil production. In many cases, it increases it. When skin is dehydrated, it compensates by producing more oil, which leads to makeup breakdown and excess shine.
Lightweight hydration improves skin balance and helps makeup adhere more evenly. The issue is not moisturiser — it’s choosing the wrong texture.
