It is summer still in many parts of the country. The heat and the angry sun rays dominate the season and it affects our skin the most. Dry skinned beauties can be little relaxed in summer as this season is not going to strip off much moisture from their skin as like in winter, but summer is the most intolerable season for oily skin typed women around the world. Whatever cream or foundation you apply, whatever compact you pat your skin with, it turns oily and looks like an oil well within a couple of hours. Your T-Zone gets oilier soon especially in this heat. Sweat combines with the oil and makes a dirty mess on the face because where there is a combination of oil and sweat there attracts the ‘dirt’ most. Leave your worries; let’s check some easy and natural ideas to reduce oily skin in this red hot summer!
When it comes to the oil clearing treatments, the first thing that gets in our mind is the clay mask. Treat your skin with a soothing, as well as a cooling clay mask to soak up excess oil and control the sebum production. You can invest on good branded facial clay masks or prepare your own at home in minutes.
Combine a teaspoon of Fullers earth with required rose water and diluted lemon juice! That’s it; you’re done with your clay mask. If you have extra oily skin type, this mask can be used even twice-thrice every week to control that sheen on your facial skin and thus reduce oily face.
It is nice to include good fats in your diet such as the almonds, seeds and etc. but strictly say no to the processed junk foods! Cheeses and fried junk foods might be what your tongues love, but they are the first enemies for your ‘oily skin’ which is sheen all time. Snack more fresh fruits and vegetables in this summer to maintain skin soft and supple instead of including unhealthy junk foods that gives your greasy, dull skin.
Oily skin typed women need water and a face wash more often to clear out the oiliness and dirt from the skin, but too much is not good. Washing your face twice-trice a day with a mild oil clearing cleanser is good and if you still need to wash your face more due to this intolerable heat and oiliness, get some fresh water and nothing else! Yes, splash fresh cold water on your face often and wipe it with a soft towel. Face wash shouldn’t be used more than thrice everyday and make sure to choose an alcohol and fragrance free cleanser.
Carry a blotting paper and a compact with you in your bag whenever you step out! This might help you a lot in reducing that oily sheen in hot summers. What more? Enjoy the summer with these simple ideas and say goodbye to greasy skin.
