First you must be asking, ‘Do I put the oil on my face even if I have oily skin?’.
First you must be asking, ‘Do I put the oil on my face even if I have oily skin?’.
The
answer is: ‘Yes!’
Coconut Oil is a natural cleanser with
antibacterial and anti-fungal properties. It will not change your skin pH and
will not irritate your skin. Coconut oil is also a great antioxidant that will
help you to diminish your lines and wrinkles.
Research
has shown that coconut oil suits all skin types so there is no problem with
that. And it is also a great moisturizer.
How do you use it?
Very
simple…First, massage coconut oil on you face with your fingertips for around
30 seconds, then apply a warm towel onto your face to open your pores. Leave
the washcloth on your face for 15-30 seconds and then lightly remove it with
the same washcloth.
If
you feel that you have an extra oil on you face, splash some water on it, but
your skin should absorb the most of it.
2.
Olive Oil Face Cleanser
Olive oil is a magical ingredient that is great for
many things, but did you know that it is also a great natural facial cleanser?!
Olive oil works on oily skin and it
is also a great moisturizer for dry skin.
It contains antioxidants and good
fats that can help reduce free radicals which can relieve irritated or sun
burnt skin.
How do you use it?
Let’s make a nice night cream!
Use ½ cup of olive oil, ¼ cup of
vinegar and ¼ cup of water. Then mix them thoroughly and apply to your
face at night.
This cream can help you to light the
dark spots, kill bacteria and make your skin clear and smooth.
3.
Apple Cider Vinegar Face Cleanser
Apple cider vinegar has a pH of 5.5 which is
closest to our skin pH.
It
controls sebum balance which ensures that your skin doesn’t become too oily or
too dry. It can also help you to reduce age spots, fight wrinkles and has
antioxidant and antibacterial properties which can help you with acne and
blemishes.
It
clears your face from toxins leaving you skin to glow youthfully and clearly.
How do you use it?
Never
use a 100% pure apple cider vinegar because it is too strong and can irritate
the skin so you need to make a mixture with water.
You
can mix 1 part of vinegar and 2 parts of water, or mix 1 part of vinegar and 1
part of water.
Apply
it to you face with a cotton pad or ball and let your skin absorb it. If
you skin feels dry you can put on your daily moisturizer.
4. Honey and Lemon Face Cleanser
Honey
and lemon combine to make a perfect natural and homemade moisturizer and
antiseptic.
Honey contains alpha hydroxy acids
that exfoliate the skin and antioxidants that eliminate the free
radicals. This is because sugars is a natural humectant.
Lemon, on the other hand, kills
acne-causing bacteria and clears away the dead skin. It is also believed that
lemon can help you to remove acne scars.
How do you use it?
Make a simple mask using a 2
teaspoons of honey and 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice. Apply it gently with
your fingers onto your face and neck. Leave it until it dries and then wash it
with warm water.
5.
Yogurt Face Cleanser
Yogurt is full of protein and lactic acids and those two combine to make a great facial cleanser.
