Today's post is all about skincare. If your skin is anything like mines then oily skin is probably one of you biggest concerns. Having oily skin can be problematic, especially since people who suffer from excessive oily skin tend to have more breakouts. I recently switched up some of my skincare products because my skin has never been as oily as it is now. I have always loved Ole Henriksen's products even when my skin was really dry and flakey. So when I had the opportunity to try out some new skincare that targeted cleaning out my pores and balancing the oils on my face I became hopeful.
My favorite why to use this scrub is by applying luke warm water to my face then taking a pea sized amount onto both side of my face and gently rubbing in circular motions. 
After gently rubbing my face for about a minute I rinse it with warm water which allows the product to melt down.
Above you can see that I applied the product onto my entire face. The texture is very griddy so you don't have apply much pressure for it to do its job. Also you don't want your skin to burn because you rubbed to hard.
After rinsing off the scrub I go in with the Counter Balance Oil Control Hydrator. I have combination skin so finding the perfect moisturizer that can control my oils as well as give my skin the hydration that it needs can be hard to find. However with Ole's Oil Control Hydrator I find that it does a great job at equally doing both.
***Fun Fact: People with oily skin still need to moisturize. Also using more products that contain oil signals a message to your skin telling itself to stop producing as much oil because your skin doesn't need to overcompensate for what it thinks it needs more of.
