If you have oily skin, you may be hesitant to use any oil-based product for fear of breakouts. However, the belief that oils always make oily skin worse is a common skincare myth. In fact, the right type of face oil—like our Soothing Fruit Oil—can help balance your skin, reduce breakouts, and restore a healthy glow.
Understanding Oily Skin
Oily skin is caused by an overproduction of sebum, the natural oil produced by your skin. Excess sebum can lead to clogged pores, acne breakouts, blackheads, and a shiny appearance. That’s why many people assume using a face oil will only make things worse. But here’s the reality: using the right kind of oil can actually regulate sebum production and keep your skin in balance.
Why Soothing Fruit Oil Works for Oily & Acne-Prone Skin
Our Soothing Fruit Oil is carefully blended with skin-friendly ingredients such as:
-
Meadowfoam oil – deeply hydrating, helps lock in moisture without clogging pores.
-
Abyssinian oil – lightweight, balances natural sebum production.
-
Squalane – a non-comedogenic oil that mimics skin’s natural oils.
-
Rosmarinus & fruit extracts – provide antibacterial and anti-inflammatory benefits.
Together, these ingredients help:
✔ Balance oil production
✔ Prevent clogged pores
✔ Reduce redness and irritation
✔ Fight acne-causing bacteria
Unlike heavy or pore-clogging oils, our soothing fruit oil contains low comedogenic oils, meaning they’re far less likely to cause breakouts.
How to Use Soothing Fruit Oil in Your Routine
If you’re new to face oils, start slow:
-
Patch test first – try a small area to see how your skin responds.
-
Start small – apply a few drops after cleansing and toning.
-
Massage gently – focus on acne-prone areas or areas with excess oil.
-
Build gradually – over time, you can increase the amount if your skin responds well.
💡 We even offer a trial-size sample so you can test how your skin reacts before committing to the full size.
Other Tips for Managing Oily Skin
In addition to using our soothing fruit oil, here are simple tips to help manage oily, acne-prone skin:
-
Wash your face 1–2 times daily with a gentle cleanser.
-
Use soothing fruit oil as a natural cleanser or makeup remover.
-
Avoid touching your face to prevent transferring bacteria.
-
Maintain a healthy diet, lifestyle, and drink plenty of water.
The Bottom Line
The idea that oily skin should avoid oils is a myth. With the right oil—especially a non-comedogenic, soothing blend like ours—you can balance your skin, reduce breakouts, and achieve a healthier, clearer complexion.
✨ Remember: skincare is personal. Listen to your skin, be consistent, and allow time for results.
