Contrary to popular belief, adding oil to your skincare routine can actually help to balance your skin and reduce the appearance of acne. Conventional oil-free acne solutions often use harsh drying methods that dehydrate skin. Because of this, the skin increases its sebum production in an attempt to balance and restore hydration. Your natural oils cannot secrete properly when skin is dehydrated, so dirt and impurities get stuck in pores. Coconut oil effectively penetrates the skin to dissolve hardened sebum, tighten those pesky pores, and keep your skin healthy, balanced, and clean.
