The main causes of oily skin | Lifestyle Guru

Today’s post is bout the main causes of oily skin, just ask few question from yourself and try to understand the causes. Have a look that is your skin producing extra shine? Is it look like oily? Is it seems like a slippery floor? it is because of sebaceous gland which is present inside of every single pore which produces the sebum (natural oil). Sebum is an essential need for healthy and hydrated skin. And when the sebaceous gland produces more sebum then your skin becomes more oily than the normal one.

The main causes of oily skin

There are so many factors or causes of the oily skin here I would like to share the main causes of oily skin.

Due to heredity (Genetics)

In some cases it is like if you have oily skin than we can say probably you have inherited that from your mom and dad(if one of them has oily skin). It is passed on through the genes from generation to generation so it is also the cause of oily skin that is of an overactive sebaceous gland.

Due to age or hormonal changes

As you grew younger your body produces less collagen ( it is the building block which helps the skin to prevent wrinkles and moisture loss and so on). It is the fact that the body continuously undergoes into changes and these all changes are due to hormonal changes. The hormones also go through certain changes and such hormones (estrogen and progesterone) affect the skin too. But the hormones which are responsible for oily skin are androgen and somehow it is also seen that the illness or stress also causes the extra hormones to be released which are responsible for more oil production.

Sun

Other skins are less resistant to the sun than the oily skin. Oily skin is somehow beneficial for you if you experience the sun more because, it is just like a protective layer for your skin. Oily skin protects your skin from UV radiation or from burning. The weather or the surrounding effects much on your skin and these effects too on skin’s natural oil production. Most of in summer season your skin becomes more oily, than in other seasons, this is due to an increase in humidity and temperature. So, therefore, it is necessary to take care of your skin in these days.
