Studies show that oily skin tends to age better than dry skin.
It usually has less wrinkles per square inch than dry skin
of the same age. Also, the problems associated with dry skin
are often more difficult to deal with than with an oily skin
type. Oily skin rarely looks chalky. It usually looks healthy
and vibrant. Foundation tends to look better after a few hours
on oily skin. Foundation
often has a 'pancake' look or disappears on dry skin after
a few hours.
