Re: for oily skin ....

Mr Bombastic i have got the same bloody problem, i m not too worried aboutt he skin colour but this oily skin has messed up my lovely dove-like face :-). I get those annoying dry pimples that just appear for a day or two and leave an ugly spot on my face. My skin is only fresh and clean for 2-3 hours after i have shower otherwise it looks dirty and oily and i need help too :(:(:(.

Re: for oily skin ....

now i have to decide between rinkles or parties .. but jab rinkle aye ge tab tek to shadi bhi ho gai ho gi .. tab wo bichari kya ker le gi :P

Re: for oily skin ....

well oily skin is caused by dead skin cells. in order to remove these dead skin cells you should exfoliate your skin about 2-3 times a day. you can exfoliate your skin by washing your face with a wash cloth or use a scrub like "nutragena gentle scrub" which has gently exfoliates ur skin using tiny microbeads. you should also be sure to use a toner on your face everyday after washing ur face because this helps to tone the skin and maintains the pH level.

Re: for oily skin ....

Use a scrub - its the best thing to do. Use it in the morning when waking up. Use it again when you get back from work/school. Use it again at night.

Scrubs have natural abrasive materials, that take away the dead skin, and the oil layer, and open up your pores so your skin can breathe a bit.

I would recommend the scrubs by Queen Helene brand - you can get them at Sally's. St. Ive's also has the Arpricot Scrub that I understand is good too. Its a bit femme - the name of the brands - but they work really really well.

Re: for oily skin ....

pcg
isn't that too much scrubbing?

Re: for oily skin ....

I do it. :(

And my skin is awesome now.

Oh and also tone - I use a multivitamin toner from Avon. Its great. Leaves skin very shiny.

Re: for oily skin …

a face wash is a great idea.. but make sure u don’t buy one that is a foam wash. those are geared for dry skin, as they leave much oil in the skin and cover the very top surface:blush:

Re: for oily skin ....

PCG, wat abt home made scrub?n do u hav any idea how to make scrub at home?

Re: for oily skin …

yea st ives is good.

Re: for oily skin ....

I don't know how to make home made scrub, but if you take besan ka aata, and make a watery paste out of it - rub into face - it works essentially like a scrub. Leave it on, and it works like a mask.

Re: for oily skin ....

Mysterious Guy, when you are in your early 20's pimples appear just a natural process. About oily skin wash your face a lot and don't apply thick cream on your face.
