If you have oily skin, it is going to need just as much care during winter, as dry skin needs. In fact, oily skin needs more care than dry skin as it is more likely to break out during winter.

That is because the chilly winds steal your skin of its natural surface lipids, which act as barriers to hold in moisture and keeps the dirt and other environmental toxins out thus leading to more breakouts.
