Acne & Oil Control

Oily, congested, breakout-prone skin needs two things at once: a cleanser mild enough to use twice a day, and something targeted for the days it flares. Everything here is built around that. Neem and tea tree do the daily work; multani mitti draws out oil and grime once or twice a week.

The mistake most oily-skin routines make is stripping. Skin that has been scrubbed dry produces more oil, not less — so these are formulated to clean without leaving skin tight, and they pair with a lightweight hydrating layer rather than replacing one.

For humid Indian weather, oily T-zones, and skin that shines by lunchtime.
