Why Is My Face Oily? Causes, Triggers & How to Fix It
Oily skin is caused by genetics, hormones, climate, and skincare habits. Learn what triggers excess oil and how to reduce shine with the right routine.
I’m Lucy, and I’ve been working in the skincare industry for 8 years. Today, I’m a Senior Sales Manager, focused on customer development and long-term account support.
Early in my career, I spent six months learning directly inside our production and R&D departments. That experience shaped how I work to this day. I still regularly visit the R&D team and the production workshop—discussing global skincare trends, translating real customer needs into practical product ideas, and checking how customer orders are running on the line. I also do spot checks on product quality when needed, because trust is built on details, not promises.
As a woman, skincare is part of my everyday life—not just my job. I maintain a consistent daily routine, test our new launches, compare them with well-known international brands, and keep learning better application and makeup techniques. Over the years, I’ve developed strong personal “best practices” for what works in real life, and I often share my routines, testing notes, and skincare lessons internally with our team.
Beyond product knowledge, I’m also deeply familiar with the market. My clients are based around the world, and I spend about one-third of each year overseas visiting customers, researching local demand, and learning directly from global consumers. I stay closely connected to mainstream skincare certifications and fast-moving trends across different regions. That market perspective helps me recommend the most practical solutions—especially for newer brands—so they can choose the right products, meet market expectations, and grow their business with confidence.
