As someone who has combi skin, glowy skin to me is shine on my cheekbones and my temples, but oily skin is when oil gathers on my t-zone. Sounds kind of hypocritical, but oh well!

If you can run your hand along your face and oil comes off its oily, if you rub your face and nothing comes off then it's glowy. For glowy skin you use like a highlighter and things like that.

Correct me if I'm wrong someone.

Oily is when you have too much natural face oils and you look shiny and stuff. To me glowy skin is dewy foundation, highlight, fresh skin. My skin isnt really oily so I can't answer your last question but there is a difference for sure

To me, glowy = sheen, oily = shine.

This is what I see dewy/glowy skin as. A gently highlight that shows the skin is healthy and hydrated.

This is what I see oily skin as. It appears that you have too much of your natural oils on your face. It can appear as though you're a little sweaty or not feeling well. Hope this helps some! Xx
