Home Remedies & Natural Ingredients For Oily Skin

 

Everyday Hacks For Oily Skin

When you have oily skin, the chances are that your skin tends to get greasy during the course of the day. So we’ve come up with some super effective hacks that will help you keep your skin looking matte or even your makeup from melting.

1.Tighten And Brighten:

If you aren’t already using a toner on your skin, then you’re doing more harm to it than any good. After cleansing your face, toners hold an important part in your skincare regime.So, if your skin is oily and it feels stretchy or itchy after washing, you definitely need a toner. The antioxidants present in the toner will prep your your skin by hydrating it and balancing out its pH levels.

2.Moisturise And Replenish:

Moisturising your skin is an integral part of your everyday routine, even if you have an oily skin type. If you skip moisturising your face and body, your skin will overcompensate for the lack of moisture by producing more oil. So, if you love adding natural ingredients to your everyday skin care routine, you can make a lightweight moisturiser using just 2 ingredients.

•  Mix aloe vera gel with some rosewater.
• Apply it twice a day, after using your toner and massage your face with it.

Aloe vera hydrates oily skin without making it greasy and rose water will prevent excess oil production and soothe it.

3.Cleanse And Clarify:

Oily skin types deserve special pampering every single day. And so you should start your day with a soap that’s meant for your skin type. Invest in a cleanser that your skin type or make one all by yourself.

• Take an opaque white soap base and cut it into equal chunks.
• Microwave it for about 30 seconds or till it melts completely.
• Add 2 tbsp of finely ground rice to the melted soap.
• Add about 7-8 drops of tea tree essential oil to the mix and mix it well.
• Pour the mixture into a mould of your choice
• And if you notice bubbles on the surface, spray some rubbing alcohol to watch them instantly disappear. Ground rice is known for its oil absorbing properties and tea tree essential oil combats acne causing bacteria. Let it sit for sometime until you notice that the mixture is set.
• Now, for the second layer, take a clear soap base, cut it in equal amounts and melt it for 30 seconds.
• Now, add about 8 teaspoons of activated charcoal powder to the melted soap and add 10-12 drops of tea tree essential oil to it.

The combination of activated charcoal and tea tree essential oil will help detoxify and absorb all the impurities from the skin. Mix well and repeat the same procedure as you did with the first mixture.

Let it set for sometime and then you can take it out from the mould and cut the bar into pieces.

There you go, you have your everyday oily skin fix!

4.Treat And Banish:

If you prefer using natural ingredients instead of products on your face, you can use this DIY to tackle acne caused due to excess sebum secretion.

• Mash two garlic cloves into a paste and pour some rose water over it.
• Apply this mixture on affected areas and you’ll see a noticeable difference in your skin’s healing process.
