Use salicylic acid

Use products with salicylic acid as it can penetrate the pores and get rid of excess oil to prevent acne.

Clay mask

Apply a clay mask at least once a week to clarify your skin. Clay masks are effective in absorbing excess oil and tightening pores.

Oil-free moisturiser

Always use moisturisers which are labelled as 'non-comedogenic'. These are specially made for oily and acne-prone skin and are oil-free.

Stay hydrated

Drink at least 8 glasses of water per day to keep your skin hydrated. If your skin feels dehydrated it will produce excess oil.
