When this happens, your skin will produce more oil, and that will cause even more acne.

Can we use 'oil' in the sentence? Does 'oil' mean 'sebum'? Do we have to use 'sebum'?

If you use "sebum" in normal conversation, people probably won't know what you mean! Oil is accurate, and is more commonly used.
