Be it any season of the year, excessive oiliness is a skin issue that a lot of us face irrespective of the gender. Men have harder skin and it tends to get more oily. Oiliness can block your pores and lead to pimples and acne. The best way to avoid this is to cleanse your skin with a face wash at least twice a day. Washing your face will remove dirt, grime, and excess oil that has settled inside your pores.

Once you are done with the cleansing part, you should scrub away any dead cells that have clogged the pores and can cause breakouts. Exfoliating helps to keep the healthier skin cells live on the skin surface, giving your face the brightness and glow you desire the most. It also minimizes any wrinkle problems. Make sure you exfoliate your skin twice a week, rubbing some good face scrub on your skin gently for 3-4 minutes.

Sunscreen is the best product to prevent ageing of your skin, and it should be applied every time you plan to step out of your home. Apply it on the parts of your body that are exposed to the sun to avoid getting sunburns, dry patches, or even skin cancer. Shielding your face and body parts with sunscreen is as important as covering your body with clothes. Sunscreen with SPF 30+ is the one that the doctors mostly recommend. Always ensure that you have a sunscreen bottle in your bag so you don't end up prematurely facing skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles and dark spots.
