There are many types of facials available to take care of oily skin. The most popular ones are fruit packs and fruit based facials. Oily skin can be neutralized with the use of fruits and other astringent based products. The first thing you need to know is that you must choose your facial massage cream with great care. Choose a light cream, preferably a non greasy one, which will go a long way towards taking away from the oiliness of your skin. You may also use pure olive oil, which has a tendency to neutralize your skin as opposed to making it excessively oily. You can begin a facial with cleansing, and then a regular massage with your chosen massage cream or oil. The massage should last for at least 10 to 15 minutes. Make sure you cover all the strategic points of your face, such as the cheeks, neck, chin, forehead and nose. Each part should be massaged thoroughly for the cream to set in. after you are done with the cream or oil massage, you should do a fruit massage. This would entail you chopping a fruit or vegetable such as oranges, sweet limes, tomato or raw potato. You should rub your face for another 15 to 20 minutes with these fruit or vegetables. This will work to tone your skin perfectly. The other advantage of using these products is that they will also even out your skin tone, thus taking care of your scars.
After your massage is done, you would need to clean out your blackheads and whiteheads, if you have any, with a blackhead tweezer. After this is done, you would have to steam your face for about 15 minutes. Adding a bit of menthol to the steam water will clear your sinuses as well. After this, you would need to apply ice to your face. This will seal in the goodness of the products you have used for your facial. After this, you would need to apply a face pack to complete your facial. You can make a face pack yourself with crushed fresh fruits. Make a mix of crushed pineapple and papaya and add a teaspoon of honey to 10 teaspoons of the fruit pulp. This is the perfect face pack for oily skin. Alternately, you can also use a sandalwood face pack. Use sandalwood powder mixed with rose water for an effective face pack. This is suitable for all skin types and will help to neutralize your skin tone.
