Sebum, the naturally produced oil by the body, is the body’s way of
keeping balance on the skin, but unfortunately sometimes, the body
produces more than what is needed. When the body produces too much
sebum it causes oily skin. When this happens, a cleanser is a necessary
to wash away the excess amounts of oil. However, it does not literally
mean to wash away all of the oils. Some people are too conscious with
having oily skin so they use to scrub too hard and use an abrasive pad
to wash with. This way of removing excess skin oils is not a good thing
as it can lead to your body not having enough natural oils that in some
way beneficial to the body’s other physiological activities. That is
why dermatologists and skin care experts encourage people to use skin
care cream that should only be used for a definite purpose - oily skin care.
