Serum for oily acne-prone skin

Dealing with Oil and Breakouts Isn’t Just About Cleansing

If you’ve got oily, acne-prone skin, you know the drill: shiny T-zones by midday, new bumps popping up out of nowhere, and products that promise miracles but usually let you down. This isn’t just bad luck; oily skin overproduces sebum, which mixes with dead skin cells and clogs pores—so breakouts become regular guests.

Why the Wrong Serum Can Make Things Worse

Most folks grab any serum that claims to be ‘lightweight’ or ‘oil-free’, but some end up with formulas packed with silicones or heavy oils. These not only sit on your skin but can trap bacteria, leading to more spots. Even natural oils can be risky if they’re not non-comedogenic.

What Actually Works for Oily, Acne-Prone Skin

Ingredients That Make a Real Difference

How to Apply for Best Results

  1. Wash with a gentle, non-foaming cleanser.
  2. Pat skin dry—no rubbing.
  3. Use 2-3 drops of serum, pressing it in gently (not rubbing).
  4. Always follow with a light, oil-free moisturizer.

FAQs

Should I use a serum if my skin is always oily?

Absolutely. The right serum can balance excess oil and help prevent the clogged pores that lead to breakouts. Just choose one with ingredients like niacinamide and avoid heavy oils.

Can serums actually clear up acne?

Certain serums, especially those with salicylic acid or zinc, can help unclog pores and reduce inflammation. They're not magic, but consistent use makes a big difference over time.

Is it safe to use niacinamide with salicylic acid?

Yes, you can use both, but start slow. Use one in the morning and one at night, or layer with at least a few minutes between. This combo helps control oil and tackle breakouts.

What ingredients should I avoid in serums for oily skin?

Steer clear of coconut oil, lanolin, wheat germ oil, and thick silicones. These can clog pores and trigger more breakouts.

How do I know if a serum is non-comedogenic?

Look for labels that state 'non-comedogenic,' but check the ingredient list too. Avoid known pore-cloggers and stick with proven actives like niacinamide, zinc, or tea tree.

Why does my skin get oilier when I skip moisturizer?

Skipping moisturizer can make your skin feel dry, so it compensates by producing more oil. Always finish your serum routine with a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer.

How often should I apply serum for oily acne-prone skin?

Most serums work best once or twice daily. Apply after cleansing, before moisturizer. Don't overdo it—just a few drops are enough.

Can Arish BIO-NATURAL recommend a serum for my skin?

Of course. Our AI Skin Analyser scans your skin and suggests the best Bionatural® Actives for your exact needs. Visit arishbionatural.com to get started.

Will using a serum make my makeup last longer?

A serum that controls oil can help your makeup stay put and look fresher. Matte-finish serums are especially helpful for shine control.

What makes Arish BIO-NATURAL's serums different?

We blend botanicals with proven actives like niacinamide and zinc. Our formulas are designed for oily, acne-prone skin, so you get results without greasiness.
