In addition to these solutions, there are natural masks and treatments that can be easily done at home that allow you to improve the appearance of oily skin and prevent the onset of imperfection. The best known are:
Clay : It is purchased in herbalist’s shops and in para-pharmacies mainly in powder form and is perfect for preparing face masks. The most suitable types for oily skin are pink and green, for their absorbent properties. Mix the right amount of green clay with a little water and spread the mixture thus obtained on the skin and let it act for 10 minutes until it is completely dry and starts to pull. Rinse with warm water.
Corn starch : Known for its absorbent properties, corn starch allows it to absorb excess sebum on the skin of the face. For a mask, mix 2-3 teaspoons of cornstarch with water to obtain a spreadable compound on the face. Let the mask dry for a few minutes and rinse with warm water.
Lemon : As a true protagonist of the many do-it-yourself remedies for personal and home care, lemon juice is confirmed as a very useful natural ally also for the treatment of oily skin thanks to its antibacterial and astringent properties. To prepare a sebum-regulating solution to be dabbed directly on the face, especially in the most critical points, it will be sufficient to combine water and juice in equal parts, apply with a cotton pad and rinse first with hot and then cold water in order to amplify the toning effect.
Apple : Among the skin-friendly fruits, apple is undoubtedly one of the most suitable for treating oily skin. Making an apple-based beauty mask is super simple: take 1/2 apple, 3/4 teaspoons of cooked oat grains and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Blend the ingredients with the mixer and spread the mixture on your face making it act for 15 minutes at the end of which you will rinse with plenty of cold water.
