Can anyone share their experience with the glo oil free moisturizer and its effectiveness for oily skin? - #22309

Violet

I am struggling with my oily skin and I've heard so much about the glo oil free moisturizer. Like, I've tried tons of products, but nothing really seems to work, you know? So, I was thinking maybe this glo oil free moisturizer could be different? A friend recommended it to me, saying it's been a total game-changer for her skin. But I'm super cautious, like what if it makes my skin even oilier? So, a bit about me — I often get these breakouts, and I've been using just gels and light creams. Never really found a good moisturizer that doesn’t make my face feel like a greaseball. Anyone here have experience with the glo oil free moisturizer? Did it help reduce your shine or breakouts? Or was it just another product that didn’t live up to the hype? I need some honest words here! Thanks for any tips or personal stories! It gets so frustrating sometimes, just trying to keep my face looking decent, and adding another product to my routine makes me wonder if it's gonna be worth the trouble. Really hope to hear from y’all soon!

While I don't have direct experience with products like glo oil free moisturizer, I can provide some insight based on ayurvedic principles to help you understand if it might be suitable for your oily skin. Oily skin in Ayurveda is often associated with an imbalance in the Kapha and sometimes Pitta doshas. These doshas, when imbalanced, can lead to excess oil production and breakouts. Therefore, it's important to aim for products that pacify these doshas while promoting skin balance. Glo oil free moisturizer is formulated to be non-greasy, which is typically a good sign for those with oily skin. However, everyone's skin reacts differently due to individual constitutions (prakriti) and imbalances (vikriti), so results can really vary. It's promising that your friend found it beneficial, as personal recommendations often point to the product's potential effectiveness. In Ayurvedic practice, for oily skin, you may want to incorporate ingredients that balance oil production. Look for a moisturizer with ingredients like neem, turmeric, sandalwood, or aloe vera, which are known to soothe, cleanse, and balance the skin. Incorporating these into your routine could complement the benefits of a product like glo. You might consider trying a small patch test of the moisturizer. Apply it to a section of your skin to see how it reacts over a few days, which can reduce the risk of exacerbating oiliness or breakouts. In terms of lifestyle, ensure you're maintaining a balanced diet—reduce processed foods and incorporate fresh, restorative foods with cooling properties. Sufficient hydration and regulating your Agni (digestive fire) through warm water, herbal teas like coriander or chamomile can also help manage oiliness from within. If after trying the moisturizer and any adjustments you still face issues, consulting with an ayurvedic practitioner might offer further personalized insights, addressing any deeper imbalances. It's all about trial and error at times, so patience can be key while you explore what works best for your skin.
