What to do if your nose is oily

The nose is a part of our body that needs to be cleaned every day. If you stay up late or don’t clean it properly for a few days, you will find that your nose will be very oily. Of course, there are many reasons for oily nose. Bad living habits and eating habits can lead to this phenomenon. Solving the problem of oily nose cannot be limited to cleaning, but also requires solving the root cause. So, what should you do if your nose is very oily?

Oily skin has abundant sebum secretion, and the face is greasy, shiny, and rough, somewhat like orange peel. Especially in the T-zone of the forehead, nose and chin, more oil is secreted, which makes acne and blackheads very likely to occur. Oily skin is less prone to wrinkles, has a stronger tolerance to external stimuli, and appears transparent when tested with a tissue.

Tips for oily nose maintenance:

(1) The water temperature for cleansing can be higher, preferably around 40 degrees. Use a strong soap or cucumber cleanser to remove dirt stuck in the pores, and scrub repeatedly with a facial sponge.

(2) Use lotion to regulate sebum secretion to care for the skin, and use skin care products suitable for oily skin to nourish the skin.

(3) Avoid eating greasy foods and eat more vegetables and fruits.

(4) Perform deep skin care regularly: face washing, steam bath, massage, and facial mask. Use cosmetics that are suitable for your skin characteristics. Oily skin and dry skin can withstand various external stimuli, are not afraid of wind and sun, are not easy to age, and wrinkles later. This type of skin should be washed with a neutral or slightly alkaline soap and hot water, and the face should be washed three or four times a day. To remove dandruff, sebum and dust, make the skin smooth and beautiful and reduce pore blockage. This type of skin should not use too much cosmetics, especially oily cosmetics, so as not to aggravate oiliness and blockage of pores. It is best to choose vanishing cream with higher moisture content.

Causes of oily nose

The nose is often too oily when people have combination skin, with the T-zone being more oily. Coupled with the hot weather, the nose starts to become shiny and oily not long after washing the face. Normally my nose doesn’t produce a lot of oil, but in the summer the oiliness of the nose and surrounding areas becomes more noticeable, and I get more acne. By noon, the T-zone looks oily. Overall, the pores are not particularly large, but the area near the nose tends to appear darker. When applying skin care products in summer, people may unconsciously avoid the T-zone or only apply a little bit.

Therefore, it is very important to remove the oil that has been secreted to prevent it from accumulating on the skin, clogging the pores, adhering to dust, becoming rancid and causing bacteria to multiply, making the skin dark or yellow, and in severe cases causing acne.

Everyone is different when it comes to choosing oil control products for a variety of reasons. Oil-absorbing facial paper is most suitable for first aid, but it is best not to use it more than twice a day, otherwise it will damage the skin itself and cause more oil to be absorbed. It is recommended to use wet cotton pads instead of oil-absorbing paper.

Surface oil-control products can instantly make your skin feel less oily and your pores filled, but like oil-absorbing paper, they can only temporarily solve the problem and cannot improve the condition fundamentally. Long-term use can cause problems such as clogged pores and dry skin. Deep oil control products are a popular trend, and they mostly use natural ingredients to deeply inhibit oil production, prevent oil secretion, and solve the oil problem from the source.
