Can weight gain cause oily skin?

Question

I gained 10 pounds over the course of a couple months and now my skin is super oily!! (I was underweight before)

Recently I started drinking water and eating more veggies/produce/protein but my skin is still oily :(

How can I make my skin less oily (without wearing makeup - I hate makeup)

Answer 1

i have super oily skin

since you didnt mention a skincare routine heres mine

cleanse - oil free cleanser or soap

tone - witchhazel

moisturise - a water based moisturiser/one that says "oil free"

do this in the morning and the evening

also make sure your hair is clean (i know that sounds stupid, but i have dreads so i only wash my hair once a week and believe me it makes a difference)

always keep up the water

it'll take 1-2 weeks to start making a difference but once your skin starts to get into the routine it'll keep well.

just keep it up!!

Answer 2

drink more water

Answer 3

Your hormones are prob catching up.  Don't wear makeup, it only gets worse with makeup.  Make sure you have a good skin care practice.
