Here are NIVEA product types and options that work well for oily skin, plus how to use them and what ingredients to look for.

Recommended product types from NIVEA

• Gel or foaming face wash — removes excess oil without over‑stripping. Look for “oil control” or “deep cleansing” variants.
• Exfoliating/blemish washes — formulas with salicylic acid or fruit acids to help unclog pores and reduce shine. Use 2–3×/week as tolerated.
• Oil‑free / mattifying moisturizers — lightweight, non‑comedogenic gels or lotions that hydrate without leaving a greasy film. Often labeled “oil control” or “matte finish.”
• Toner / pore‑refining lotion — alcohol‑free toners with niacinamide or witch hazel can help reduce oiliness and tighten pores.
• Oil‑control sunscreen — broad‑spectrum, oil‑free (gel or fluid) sunscreens that leave a matte finish so you don’t add shine during the day.
• Spot treatments — for breakouts; look for benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid options.
• Blotting sheets or mattifying powders — absorb excess surface oil during the day without disturbing makeup.

Ingredients to favor

• Salicylic acid (BHA) — penetrates pores to clear oil and dead skin.
• Niacinamide — reduces sebum production, calms redness, improves texture.
• Lightweight humectants (glycerin, hyaluronic acid) — hydrate without oiliness.
• Oil‑free, non‑comedogenic labeling and “mattifying” claims.

How to use (simple routine)

1. Cleanse morning & evening with a gel/foaming wash.
2. (Optional) Apply toner/pore refiner after cleansing.
3. Moisturize with a lightweight, oil‑free gel/ lotion.
4. Morning: finish with oil‑free, broad‑spectrum SPF.
5. Spot treat active pimples as needed.
6. Exfoliate 1–3×/week with a salicylic or AHA product (if included in your NIVEA choice or a compatible product).

Tips and cautions

• Don’t over‑wash — that can increase oil production. Twice daily is usually enough.
• If you introduce salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide, start slowly to avoid dryness.
• Patch test new products on your jawline for 48 hours if you’re sensitive.
• If you have acne prone, severely inflamed, or cystic acne, consider seeing a dermatologist — topical OTC products can help mild–moderate cases but may be insufficient alone.

If you’d like, I can:

• Suggest specific current NIVEA product names available in the U.S. (I can look them up).
• Build a step‑by‑step morning/evening routine using only NIVEA items.
