First of all, what causes oily skin?

While every individual has some oil in their skin, not everyone produces natural oil (called sebum) as much as others. Sebum helps keep your skin hydrated and healthy, but excessiveness makes one oily. This results in the likes of breakouts. What causes oily skin? You’re looking at several factors such as genetics, age, geographical location and season, enlarged pores, using the wrong skin care products and more. 

Having oily skin doesn’t entail the end of the world, though! The right treatments and products will be able to help you manage that. Introducing: the ZO Complexion Clarifying Serum!

What are the key ingredients of the ZO Skin Health Complexion Clarifying Serum?

The ZO Complexion Clarifying Serum is formulated with a combination of powerful ingredients designed to reduce oiliness, clear pores, and promote a clearer, more balanced complexion. Some of the key ingredients include:

1. ZO® Sebum Targeting Complex. This is formulated to minimize excess surface sebum and promote a balanced microbiome for a clear, shine-free complexion. These include three different extracts: eugenia uniflora leaf extract (anti-inflammatory and antibacterial), lilac extract (tightens pores and reduces oiliness appearance) and rosa canina extract (promotes skin healing and controls oil).
2. Water-Soluble Salicylic Acid. A well-known ingredient to fight against acne and oily skin, salicylic acid addresses congestion. It helps refine the look of pores without drying or irritating skin.
3. ZO-RRS2®. A proprietary blend designed to soothe visible redness and neutralize damaging free radicals, this ingredient is essential for oily skin. It can provide relief and protection, helpful in promoting a healthier complexion.
4. ZPOLY™. This is a unique ingredient that supports the skin’s protective barrier and minimizes signs of premature aging. With its protective and anti-aging properties, ZPOLY™ helps manage oily skin while keeping it youthful and resilient.

How does the ZO Complexion Clarifying Serum work?

The ZO Complexion Clarifying Serum works through a multi-faceted approach to address the root causes of oiliness and improve overall skin health.

1. It exfoliates and removes excess sebum. The combination of salicylic acid and glycolic acid effectively exfoliates the skin and removes dead skin cells. Additionally, the ZO® Sebum Targeting Complex helps minimize the production of excessive sebum! This helps to prevent acne breakouts and reduce the appearance of enlarged pores.
2. It regulates sebum production. Niacinamide plays a crucial role in regulating sebum production. By reducing excess oil, it helps to create a more balanced complexion. Niacinamide also has anti-inflammatory properties that can calm irritated skin and reduce redness associated with acne.
3. It’s got the antimicrobial and astringent properties your oily skin needs. Botanical extracts like tea tree oil and witch hazel provide antimicrobial and astringent benefits. These ingredients help to purify the skin, reduce inflammation, and also control excess oil. This contributes to a clearer and more balanced complexion.

What products can I use this with?

Managing oily skin requires a combination of effective skincare products and a consistent routine. By addressing the root causes of oiliness, the ZO Complexion Clarifying Serum can help to create a clearer, more balanced complexion, making it an essential addition to any skincare regimen aimed at treating oily skin. Here are some products that may work best** for oily, acne prone skin:

• ZO Daily Power Defense. Also containing ZPOLY™ complex to enable a long-lasting, youthful and healthy skin complexion, this helps defend against environmental stressors and premature signs of ageing.
• ZO Exfoliation Accelerator 50ML. Contains soothing and calming benefits thanks to its aloe, green tea and chamomile blend. Suitable for soothing and healing damaged skin.
