While it is true that those of us with active sebaceous glands need to worry lesser about ageing, it is a complete myth that those with oily skin don't age! However, using products that dry out the extra oil and strip the skin of its natural emollients is not the solution. Instead, focus on a serum that has excessive hydrating properties. Serums that are purely water-based counter the oil levels in your skin, while also being absorbed quickly into restore any degenerating cells below the epidermis. Look for ingredients like Vitamin E, aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, jojoba oil, amino acids and blends.
