Skin types are easily defined: oily skin has excess oil, dry skin doesn't have enough moisture, and combination skin is a combination of both oily and dry skin. Although sometimes it's not so easy to recognize which is which. For example, some people can have normal dry skin while others can have very dry skin.

Sensitive, oily skin is one of those "mixed" types of skin that are difficult to treat. Especially because they are neither one nor the other. Let's have a look as some ways that you can deal with this problem.

Learn How to Treat Sensitive Oily Skin

As with normal oily skin, sensitive oily skin is prone to acne and breakouts. However, traditional acne products usually contain retinols or salicylic acid which can easily irritate sensitive oily skin. Instead of using products that contain these ingredients, look for products that contain Vitamin B.

In fact, acne has been linked to Vitamin B deficiency for decades. Vitamin B5 deficiency produces coenzyme A deficiency which leads to an increase in sebum production while Vitamin B2 deficiency leads to oilier skin.

You can increase your Vitamin B intake by incorporating meat products like eggs and dairy into your diet. Flaxseed or flax oil are also rich in Vitamin B and a great incorporation to your daily intake.

Also try to drinking plenty of water to help control sensitive oily skin. Lack of moisture causes imbalances in the levels of oil in your body and skin. Make a special note of this tip, because even slight dehydration can increase the production of sebum.

Skin Care Products for Sensitive Oily Skin

Sensitive facial skin makes the range of possible products narrow. So, when you finally find a product that works for you, stick with it. Vitamin B and its derivatives -such as niacinamide - are not the only ingredients you should look for.

Gentle cleansers may include products that contain tea tree oil. This ingredient is more gentle than benzoyl peroxide and known to help treat acne. Make sure to start slowly, though, as it can cause a bit of irritation.

Sensitive skin lotions and natural moisturizers that contain oatmeal or aloe vera are a good solution for sensitive oily skin. Both of these ingredients are soothing, however, make sure that the product is water based so that it will absorbs quickly.

Another thing to note is the alcohol and filler content of your sensitive skin products. Stay away from products that contain alcohol within the first five ingredients because these products will inevitably dry out and irritate your skin.

Basically, sensitive skin treatments don't have to contain a secret ingredient to work for sensitive oily skin. Just make sure that whichever product you decide to use can also help treat sebum production and acne.
