Oily skin does not need a moisturizer.
Oily skin tends to become dehydrated (lacking water moisture) and can stimulate oil glands to produce more oil to balance the skin, says Wellman.
Use a non-comedogenic moisturizer everyday!
I should see progress within about two weeks of trying a new skincare system.
“You want to look for results after four weeks. The average turnover time for skin cells is 21 days, slower for older adults and faster for young people.

if a product worked well and no longer appears to be effective, it may be wise to switch,” says Dr. Bank.
