Oily skin - prone to shine throughout the day

Understanding, caring for, and embracing with Mineralissima

Do you often suffer from skin that starts shining in no time? Maybe you recognize it: your makeup fades faster, your skin feels oily, and when you look in the mirror you see a shiny ball. Quickly shiny skin can be quite frustrating, and we at Mineralissima understand that very well. That's why we like to share our knowledge about what oily skin exactly is, where it comes from, and especially: how you can deal with it in a gentle, effective way.

With our mineral makeup and smart tools, we ensure your skin stays balanced without feeling heavy or heavily caked. We show you that a healthy, fresh skin doesn't have to be a matter of luck, but of the right care and attention.

What does a quickly shiny/oily skin actually mean?

Oily skin is usually caused by an overproduction of sebum, the natural oily layer that protects and hydrates your skin. While sebum is essential to keep your skin supple, too much of it can make your face shine and sometimes attract dirt and makeup more quickly.

This phenomenon is common in people with oily or combination skin, but can also be influenced by other factors. It sometimes makes you feel insecure about your appearance, especially because shine is often associated with less cared-for or 'oily' skin, which doesn't have to be the case at all.

What causes that extra shine?

The amount of sebum your skin produces is influenced by various factors:

  • Your skin type: Some people naturally have oily skin or skin that is sensitive to oil production.
  • Hormones: Especially during puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, or periods of stress, hormones can play a big role.
  • Nutrition: Spicy food, lots of sugar, or dairy can stimulate sebum production.
  • Weather conditions: Warm temperatures and high humidity can make your skin shine faster.
  • Incorrect skincare: Overly aggressive cleansing or using products that dry out can actually stimulate your skin to produce extra oil.

How does it feel for you?

Oily skin can feel uncomfortable. You might feel like you look "oily" all day, or that your makeup melts and doesn't last as long. It can affect your confidence, especially if you have to touch up every few hours. Additionally, an overproduction of sebum can also increase the chance of blemishes.

But you know? You’re not the only one struggling with this, and fortunately, there are nice, gentle ways to balance your skin without 'overkill' of products or heavy makeup layers.

Caring for your skin with attention and respect

The foundation for shiny skin that shines less quickly starts with good skincare:

  • Cleanse twice a day with a mild cleanser that helps regulate your sebum production without drying out your skin.
  • Use a light, oil-free moisturizer to hydrate your skin. Even oily skin can lack moisture!
  • Avoid harsh scrubs and alcohol-containing products that dry out your skin and actually stimulate your sebum production.
  • Protect your skin from the sun with a sunscreen that doesn't feel greasy and doesn't clog pores.
  • Use mattifying primers or powders to reduce shine.

Mineralissima’s mineral makeup: your ally against shine

Mineral makeup is, for us at Mineralissima, the gentle and effective choice if you have quickly shiny skin. Because our products are free from heavy oils, perfume, and other irritating ingredients, they offer a light, breathable coverage that doesn't clog your skin.

What makes mineral makeup so suitable?

  • Breathable and lightweight: Lets your skin breathe and prevents clogged pores, contributing to less shine and fewer impurities.
  • Natural mattifying minerals: Ingredients like mica and silica help absorb excess oil and provide a soft, natural matte finish.
  • Long-lasting coverage without heavy layers: You build up layers as desired without looking 'made up'.
  • Natural sun protection: Many mineral makeups contain zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, which protect your skin from harmful UV radiation, without a greasy feeling.
  • Hypoallergenic: Perfect for sensitive skin that often also shines quickly.

Handy tools from Mineralissima

In addition to our mineral foundations and powders, we also offer handy tools and supplementary products to keep shine under control, such as:

  • Mattifying powders to refresh your skin throughout the day and reduce shine.
  • Blotting papers: The number 1 to instantly absorb excess oil quickly without disturbing your makeup.
  • Primer with mattifying effect: a nice base that helps regulate sebum production and keeps makeup looking good longer.

These products fit perfectly within our philosophy of gentle, effective care, without burdening your skin.

Extra tips to keep your skin balanced

Besides the right products and makeup, you can also make a difference with small changes in your routine and lifestyle:

  • Wash your face with lukewarm water and avoid hot water, which actually stimulates oil production.
  • Avoid touching your face too much during the day.
  • Ensure sufficient sleep and try to limit stress as much as possible.
  • Watch your diet: a balanced diet with plenty of vegetables and little sugar can help calm your skin.
