- An oily substance secreted by a sebaceous gland, which makes the skin smooth. it also protects the skin against bacteria and the body against rapid evaporation of water.
- Aka oil in your skin, sebum is a light yellow oily substance that is produced by your oil glands. it consists of some of the things you may have heard of before that your body produces naturally, such as squalene, wax esters, fatty acids, and more. sebum is not a bad thing, but it can get trapped in your pores and become pimples, whiteheads, or blackheads.
- The “oil” excreted by the skin, which naturally nourishes and conditions skin and hair. an excess of sebum production can make one look and feel greasy, or can clog pores. however, sebum production in general is important for general skin wellness.
- Lipid-rich substance secreted by the sebaceous glands of the skin
