Tips for Treating Oily Skin

1. Wash your face as many times as you can, using a mild cleanser.

2. Use an oil free moisturiser and cosmetics.

3. Use a clay-based face mask two or three times a week.

4. Avoid using cleansers that tend to overdry skin. This paradoxically causes your skin to produce even more oil than usual.

5. Make your own fruit acid mask. Mash papaya and smear it on your skin. Leave it on for 10 minutes before rinsing off.

6. Steam your skin several times a week and add camomile, lavender oil or dried herbs to it.

7. Keep your skin hydrated by drinking atleast eight glasses of water a day.

8. Reduce fats and oils in your diet.

9. Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun.
