Oily Skin Dos and Donts
Dos
- Oil free makeup
- Mild oil free cleanser & gently wash face 1-2xa day
- Use toner or astringent after cleansing face that contains alcohol to help remove excess oil (this tightens pores)
- Use warm H2O when washing face/Hot H2O may dry out skin
- Apply toner to T-Zone area, those are the oiliest spots on the face. Use cotton ball
- Oil free moisturizer
- It is also important to exfoliate the skin once a week or apply a green clay mask every 10 days or so, as this product is ideal to remove fat from the skin and helps to close the pores
- Matte sunscreen
Donts
- Washing face often makes it worse, body will produce more oil because you're drying your skin out
- Harsh cleansers strip oil from skin
- Moisturizing soap add more oil to the face
- Don't keep touching face with hands
- Cream base moisturizers are no good
- Wash makeup off at night
