I just discovered this channel, I LOVE it! She's no nonsense and knows what she's doing, Her skin is gorgeous too, which doesn't hurt when teaching us about skin health!

Hello everyone. 😀 As you will hear in this video, I've always personally struggled with oily skin which in my teens came hand in hand with acne and then of course hyperpigmentation! This video is to educate about why some of us have oilier skin than others, what you can do to control the oil and which ingredients to look out for so you can make an informed decision when choosing your skincare products. If you are watching because you also struggle with this, say hiiii 😁 and let me know what works for you. If you are watching just for general education, curiosity, research etc, I would also love to hear your thoughts, comments or questions. Thank you ❤️ I've tried to incorporate products that are easily available in drugstores or online. *Timestamps:* 00:00​ Intro 1:19​ How your skin produces oil? What's Oily skin? 2:12​ Why Is Sebum (Oil) Important? 2:43​ Why is your skin Oily? 4:28​ Causes of Oily Skin 6:33​ Top ingredients 10:19 am routine 13:57 pm routine 18:54​ See your doctor if... .

Thank you 🙏🏾 great advice. I am incorporating many of these steps for my oily skin routine and it’s working. But I definitely would like to incorporate the la roche posay 50+ spf and the a few of the face therapy products. Great job explaining each products purpose and your akin care routine. This is very helpful. Any suggestions on products best for getting rid of hyperpigmentation from acne scars?

Thank you! Have such oily skin.

My favourite person on KZread right now

Are you able to do a video on toners, are they a necessary step in skincare routine?

I find that Sali-res helps a lot with my only skin. It even cleared up my son's acne.

Amazing! Very helpful thank u,

I enjoyed this video! Thank you for the education. I would love to see a video on make up products(foundation, etc.) best for oily skin on dark tones that will not clog the pore. Your make up always looks flawless.

Professional put Dr. I feel like I've had an amazing 1-2-1 complimentary consultation on products I've needed since teens. Thank you for guides 💯☺️

Where have u been all my life! I am in my 50's and am looking for skin care products that won't cause makeup to run! I'm tired of spending so much 💰 money on skin care that's not geared to people who have oily skin. I'm gonna keep watching your videos! Please keep bringing them on! 🙏 Make your own line of skin care!

Ohhh 🤔 True to that. Hydrate the skin, so it doesn't overload in producing oil.

Thank you! Love the education to know why, how, etc, of my skin. Love it!

I appreciate you mentioning PCOS at the end of the video!! Fun fact, it was my dermatologist who was helping me with my acne when i was in high school who brought up PCOS to me and is the reason I got a proper diagnosis!

I’m new to the channel.. Hi 👋 I’m sure I’ll enjoy watching your videos while I do my skincare. I have oily skin AM routine: Cerave- Renewing SA cleanser, Rovectin- lotus water cream, then I finish with Black girl sunscreen kids SPF 50 PM routine: Cerave- foaming facial cleanser, Good light- Moon glow toning milk, Good molecules- hyaluronic acid, La Roche- Posay- Double repair face moisturizer, and Aklief (prescription retinol)

Thank you so much!! Could you please do a video on how the weather affects skin? I travel a lot and I recently messed up big time by using Castor oil because of oily skin and new humid weather. Aloevera is a miracle and possibly honey are the only things that worked so far

love it from Tanzania🇹🇿

Thank you for this educational video. I really like that you incorporate all kinds of skin tones and types into your videos. Although I don’t have black skin, I’m really interested in learning about other skin types as well and how different kind of products are received by different kinds of skin colors and types. I do have a combination skin and really sensitive and acne prone as well. I used to think i had oily skin, but after trying so many different kind of products, I finally found the products that work for me and don’t make me oily anymore. Just a little in the T-zone and dryer around my cheeks and next to my nose. I have been using the products from Esse for about 2 years now and it really calmed my skin down. I still have acne, but not as severe as it used to be. I also prefer using products that are great for sensitive skin(like the Esse sensitive cleaner & moisturizer) but still affective for my combination and acne prone skin. But I would really like to know; maybe you could use this topic in a next video: how to clear acne scars and redness without retinol. (I tried Differin before but it was way too harsh for my super reactive/sensitive skin, it was so painful). Hope you can take that into account:) Thank you and keep going! 🤗☀️

If anyone is thinking of trying this skin care routine, I'm here to tell you to DO IT!!! I have been using the exact products that are mentioned, except using the ordinary niacidamide serum, and my skin is transforming! My oil is at bay, my pores look smaller, my texture and pigmentation is disappearing every day. I have had acne and large pores and oily skin since I was a young child and have spent thousands of dollars trying to find a skin care routine that works... from drug store to super high end products.. and nothing has worked as well as this! The face theory moisturizer is amazing, it does pill up a bit if you use too much, but it blurs my pores when I put it on and keeps my skin looking natural and satin like through the day!! While providing great hydration, of course. I thought the clarifying cleanser would clog my pores since it is more of a creamy formula, but if you let it sit on your skin for a minute after applying it has a chance to penetrate into your skin and leaves it looking so nice and not dry or stripped after. The retinol serum by cera ve is also a game changer, I've tried a few retinols that just irritate my skin or break me out, but this one is the perfect strength and I am able to use it every night without any irritation. Everyone's skin is different but I can't say enough good things about this routine, and if you're looking to manage your oily skin I highly recommend this!!! Thank you Dr Simi!!! 😊

Thank you so much for this DR

I've been using the bazac gel and it helps ...I added mine into my face lotion so it's not as dehydrating

Peppermint/spearmint tea have really helped me! And at my worst, the medication Spirolactone that was prescribed by my dermatologist. Both of which lower androgen levels. I hope this helps someone!

Dr Simi please make a video like this for dry skin. I also suffer from atopic dermatitis, and have no idea of what washing routine I should follow. Your vids are always amazing and easy to understand ❤

Hi can you talk about seborrheic dermatitis next? Thank you

Thank you so much 😘

Thank you for the informative video. Pls recommend a toner for combination skin.

Please do a video on treating oily dehydrated skin. It's so frustrating because what helps one issue makes the other worse. Creamy cleansers prevent dehydration but they're not cleansing enough and lead to clogged pores. I can't use an exfoliant either because you're meant to avoid actives. So how do I cleanse my oily skin?

Thanks doc 👍🏽🙂

I have battled with acne since puberty. I am currently try the following routine. I have been on for 2.5 weeks now. AM Cleanse w/sa wash Cleanse w/BP wash Toner w/Niacinamide 2.5% BP leave on Moisturizer Sun screen PM Cleanse as AM Toner w/niacinamide 2% SA leave on Moisturizer

I really wish you were around (and youtube) when I was a teenager with bad acne.

Doctor can you please do a video on the perfect creams and pomade for black skin and chocolate skin.

Dr Simi, I want to thank you for this video. I've never understood much about my oily skin so I was doing everything wrong. I've been following the am and pm routine you mentioned for about a month and my skin has never looked better 😩 I'm using different products though but this seriously works really well for me. My acne was really bad and my skin was horribly oily but once I started moisturising in the am and pm and using a gentler cleanser m, my skin has become much much less oily. Thank you for the video!! You truly are an angel ahhh 💕💗
