oil and large pores

Lifestyle Wedding, Fashion & Beauty
1

OK so lately my otherwise combination skin has become completely oily, so much so that I can actually scrape the oil off and cook a salan with it. So now I wash my face 3-4 times a days even if I’m at home all day.

I haven’t changed anything in my lifestyle, environment, medications, etc etc.

Also, pores on teh cheek look really large.

Any suggestions?

reduce water consumption so that u sweat less

3-4 times a day is a bit much I think. Some amount of natural oils is good for your skin…because they lubricate skin, help prevent wrinkles, etc. When you try hard to remove all traces of oil from your skin…your skin will try to produce more to lubricate…which can lead to acne. So, cut back on the washing.

My derm says that your hormones/skin changes every few years. So your skin won’t always be in the same condition. Don’t wash your face with hot water. Cold water closes pores, so they’re less visible. Try applying chilled rose water as a toner to close pores. Here are some links containing home remedies/suggestions for large pores:

A face mask will help, try neem or multani mitti.

Niksik,try to clean ur face with Raw milk 1-2 times daily and with rose water 1-2 times .This will help you..tried and tested tip.

U're washing u're face too often, taking-away oil and causing u're skin to produce more sebum (hence the oilier skin)

Instead of washing it so often, use a neem,mint, lemon juice toner. I've found tea-tree toners help the most for oily skin types as well as witch hazel.

Fullers-earth, mud-masks once a week will help tighten u're pores and absorb all excess oil too.

^tea tree and witch azel hare nice toners.

I got an all natural toner from a GNC store. It's called Thayer's. And it contains rose water, vitamin E, and witch hazel. No chemicals. Refreshing. Try it out if you can get it, Niksik.

Niksik my khala used to have the same problem. She took some serum from Clarins. I'm not too sure what it's called but all I remember is that it was a serum and that too in a blue coloured container.
