Oily skin in Colombia faces an extra challenge: the heat, humidity, and pollution in our cities stimulate sebum production all year round. But a well-designed routine can control shine, prevent acne, and keep skin in its best condition — without drying it out or over-treating it.

What does oily skin really need?

Oily skin is not a problem that needs to be aggressively combated. The most common mistakes are using very drying products (which worsen oiliness by damaging the barrier) and skipping moisturizer (which generates even more sebum production to compensate). An effective routine for oily skin balances, controls, and protects.

Morning Routine

Step 1: Cleansing

The MAHU Facial Cleanser removes excess overnight oil and prepares the skin for the day's active ingredients. Its gel formula deeply cleanses without altering pH or drying out the skin. Rinse with cool water — hot water stimulates more sebum production.

Step 2: Vitamin C

Apply the MAHU Facial Serum with Vitamin C to clean skin. In addition to lightening dark spots, vitamin C controls sebum oxidation — a process that contributes to the formation of blackheads and whiteheads. A few drops are enough.

Step 3: Light Hydration

Although it sounds contradictory, the MAHU Hydrating Gel Cream is ideal for oily skin. Its water-based and gel texture absorbs without leaving residue, moisturizes without adding oil, and keeps the skin barrier balanced. Hydrated skin produces less sebum.

Step 4: Sunscreen

The MAHU SPF 50 Sunscreen is the mandatory final step. Its non-comedogenic and fast-absorbing formula is perfect for oily skin — it doesn't leave a white cast, doesn't shine, and holds up well under makeup or on its own.

Night Routine

Step 1: Deep Cleansing

After a day with sunscreen and pollution, pores need a complete cleanse. The MAHU Facial Cleanser effectively removes everything.

Step 2: Exfoliating Toner

The MAHU Depigmenting Toner with Salicylic Acid is the star active ingredient for oily skin at night. Salicylic acid penetrates the pores, removes dead skin cells, regulates sebum, and treats active blemishes at the same time. Apply with cotton, leave on overnight.

Step 3: Nighttime Hydrating Gel

Finish with the Gel Cream so that the active ingredients work in a hydrated environment and the skin recovers during sleep.

Frequency of Active Ingredients

• Vitamin C: every morning.
• Salicylic acid: every night if your skin tolerates it well; every 2 nights if you are just starting.
• Sunscreen: without exception, every day.
