Oily skin
Excess oiliness – seborrhea – can occur as soon as a few hours after cleansing due to overly productive oil glands. Comedones are common and pores are large. Breakouts and mild blemishes can occur, and the skin can appear dull without a glow.
Interestingly, oily skin can also be dehydrated, in which case it appears oil-ladened and flaky or even scaly, with congested pores (bumpy texture) and comedones.
Teenagers typically have oilier skin than adults because of their increased sebum production.
