The Ultimate Routine for Oily and Acne-Prone Skin

The Ultimate Routine for Oily and Acne-Prone Skin

An effective, science-backed regimen to balance oil, reduce breakouts, and promote clearer skin.

If you struggle with shiny skin, enlarged pores, and frequent breakouts, you’re likely dealing with oily and acne-prone skin. At Emogene & Co., we understand how frustrating this can be, which is why we developed a targeted routine that tackles the root causes of oil imbalance and acne—while supporting your skin’s health as an organ. 

Before diving into the regimen, let’s quickly break down what oily and acne-prone skin means:


Oily Skin: What’s Happening?

Your skin produces more oil (sebum) than usual, making it look shiny, especially on the forehead, nose, and chin. You may notice blotting papers pick up a lot of oil, and your pores appear larger. This happens because your sebaceous glands are more active, which can lead to clogged pores if not managed well.

Acne-Prone Skin: The Basics

You experience regular breakouts—whether whiteheads, blackheads, or inflamed bumps. Acne happens when excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria clog pores, causing inflammation. Hormones, stress, and other factors can also worsen acne.


The Emogene & Co. 8-Step Oily/Acne-Prone Skin Regimen

Our advanced routine is designed to control oil production, clear existing blemishes, and prevent future breakouts—while keeping your skin balanced and healthy.

Step 1: Fortiphy Facial Cleansing Balm

This gentle cleansing balm melts away makeup, sunscreen, and excess oil without stripping your skin. It removes impurities while maintaining your skin’s natural moisture barrier.

Step 2: Refresh Gel Cleanser

A second cleanse that removes leftover dirt and oil with a mild formula that won’t dry you out. It leaves skin feeling fresh and clean without tightness.

Step 3: Renew Facial Toner

This toner gently exfoliates dead skin cells and helps minimize the look of pores, preparing your skin to absorb the serums and moisturizers that follow.

Step 4: Glow Vitamin C Serum

Packed with antioxidants, this serum brightens your skin, fades dark spots from past breakouts, and helps protect against environmental damage.

If Vitamin C is too irritating for you, you have the option to swap this step with our Prime Niacinamide Serum to calm redness and improve texture.

Step 5: Refine Eye Serum

A lightweight serum that hydrates and firms the delicate eye area without clogging pores—perfect for oily skin types.

Step 6: Hydrate Moisture Accelerator

A moisturizer that delivers lasting hydration without heaviness, locking in moisture and balancing oily skin.

Step 7: Repair Facial Oil

This lightweight facial oil helps regulate sebum production and soothe inflammation while repairing your skin’s protective barrier.

Step 8: CocoVanil Lip Conditioner

Don’t forget your lips! This nourishing balm keeps them soft and protected all day long.

 

Oily and acne-prone skin doesn’t have to be a struggle. With the right products and consistent care, you can manage excess oil, reduce breakouts, and enjoy healthier, clearer skin. At Emogene & Co., we’re dedicated to creating skincare that supports your skin’s natural balance—so you feel confident every day.
