A common misconception is that oily skin doesn’t need moisture. In fact, skipping moisturizer can actually increase oil production as your skin tries to compensate for lost hydration. Maintaining balanced hydration helps regulate sebum production and keeps your skin barrier strong.

Why Hydration Is Essential for Oily Skin

  • Barrier Protection: Moisturizing helps strengthen the skin barrier, which protects against environmental stressors and prevents water loss. When your skin is well-hydrated, it’s less likely to overproduce oil.
  • Balanced Sebum Production: Skipping moisturizer can dry out your skin, signaling your sebaceous glands to produce more oil to restore balance. A lightweight, oil-free moisturizer can keep skin hydrated without clogging pores.

Using Peace Out’s Acne Gel Moisturizer along with the Oil Control Roller is a great way to balance oil while maintaining hydration. The Acne Gel Moisturizer provides lightweight, oil-free hydration and is formulated with 2% salicylic acid to help clear pores. When paired with the Oil Control Roller, it provides a perfect balance, reducing shine and keeping skin looking fresh without compromising hydration.

By combining the Acne Gel Moisturizer with the Oil Control Roller, you get a powerful oil-control duo that keeps skin balanced and hydrated.
