Can I Use a Face Cream for Oily Skin in Winter?

This is a question that we get asked a lot, as many customers with oily skin wonder if they need to switch to a richer face cream for the winter. The answer is absolutely not, you just need a really good moisturiser for oily skin that works all year round. Our Matt Formula Face Cream is a gorgeous face cream for oily skin that works every day to help keep skin looking its best. This is because it is packed with absolutely amazing plant ingredients and is never too rich or greasy, but still offers long term hydration for oily, combination and normal skin, plus is kind to even sensitive skin.

Even the oiliest of skin will suffer more in winter, plus becomes drier, and this comes from the environment that our skin is subject to. If you have oily skin then you will not notice it as much as if you have dry skin, however, there will be a change to how your skin looks and feels. The air is cold and harsher with low humidity, plus we are often in centrally heated areas, and all of this dehydrates skin. But as long as your face cream has adequate hydration, nourishment and protection it will work to protect skin in the challenging winter months.

One of the ingredients that you should always find in a good moisturiser for oily skin, and any good face cream is hyaluronic acid. It works beautifully all year round and this includes in wintertime. It is especially lovely for oily skin as it is able to add intense moisture to dehydrated skin, but without any greasiness. It is a kind of invisible hydrator, which is exactly what oily skin needs. This is why we use it in our anti-ageing face cream for oily skin. Another of our favourite ingredients that you will always find in our face creams is jojoba oil. It is a beautiful oil which closely matches the natural sebum in our skin. It is intensely balancing, healing and nourishing but without clogging pores or being comedogenic, making it perfect for oily skin. It also contains other beautiful ingredients like pomegranate extract, argan and baobab oil.

Our natural face cream for oily skin is perfect for skin all year round and even in the coldest weather. This is because it is able to hydrate and protect skin from even harsh environments, but it does all of this without leaving skin greasy or clogged. It all comes from the high-quality ingredients that all skin types love. We never use cheap overly fatty ingredients like coconut and macadamia oil. We also keep our products free of parabens, dimethicone, mineral oil, PEGs and synthetic fragrance and colour, as we believe that these are not great for any skin type.

Finding the right face cream for oily skin, particularly during the winter months, can be challenging. However, Nakin's Matt Formula Face Cream is a delightful solution. This cream is specially formulated to address the unique needs of oily skin by providing hydration without leaving a greasy residue. Its lightweight texture absorbs quickly, ensuring the skin remains nourished and balanced even in the cold, harsh winter air. Containing natural ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and plant oils, it not only moisturises but also helps to protect the skin from environmental damage. This makes Nakin's Matt Formula Face Cream a perfect choice for maintaining clear and healthy skin throughout the winter season.

But what about other factors that can contribute to oily skin during winter? Dry indoor heating, lack of humidity in the air, and even stress can all play a role in causing an overproduction of oil on our skin. To combat these issues, it's important to not only find the right face cream but also incorporate other skincare practices into your routine.

Firstly, using a gentle cleanser is crucial for oily skin in the winter. Look for a cleanser like ours that are for all skin types avoid harsh ingredients such as lots of alcohol and essential oils, which can strip the skin of its natural oils. Additionally, incorporating exfoliation 1-2 times a week can help remove excess dead skin cells that may be contributing to clogged pores and excess oil production.

An important aspect of winter skincare for oily skin is hydration. It may seem counterintuitive, but even oily skin needs moisture. However, instead of heavy creams or oils, opt for lightweight and non-comedogenic moisturisers like ours that won't clog pores. 

In addition to external factors, our diet can also play a role in our skin's oil production. During the winter season, it's important to consume foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids such as salmon and avocado, which can help regulate sebum production and keep the skin balanced.
