I want a facial mask for oily face

Some people have excessive oil secretion from the sebaceous glands leading to a very greasy and unclean appearance. Oily skin also leads to other skin problems such as blackheads and pimples. The open pores make the skin appear coarse and unsightly, and thus everybody dislikes having oily skin even though it may be good in the long run by delaying appearance of wrinkles. Though you can not change the type of skin you have, you can certainly reduce the oiliness of your skin by taking proper care of your skin. If you have an oily skin, you should stick to a strict cleansing ritual, using an acetone based astringent to wipe your face twice a day. It is also important to wash your face a minimum of twice a day using a glycerine based anti-bacterial soap. Avoid using cream based cleansing lotions and face washes since this will only increase the greasy appearance of your skin.

Apart from this you can prepare some home-made face pack for oily skin which absorbs the excess oil and reduce the greasy appearance of your skin. These face-packs are prepared using ingredients easily available in the kitchen and the market. A popular face-pack amongst young girls is the orange peel face pack. You should powder orange peels that have been dried in the sun. You can store this powder in an airtight bottle and use it every time you have to make the face pack. To make the face pack, mix a tablespoon of the pack with rose water and filtered water and apply it regularly on your face. This is excellent for prevention and treatment of acne. You can also use the pulp of papaya to make a good face pack. You can rub this pulp on your face every alternate day to treat acne problems and get a smooth, fresh looking skin. For persistent acne problems, apply a mix of garlic juice and lemon juice on the affected areas. This pack will sting a little but it is very effective in treating acne problems quickly. Another recommended face pack is prepared using 6 strawberries, 1 tsp Brandy, Rose water, 2 tsp Fuller’s earth and 2 tsp breadcrumbs. Mix the strawberries and Brandy first, adding the Fuller’s earth and breadcrumbs to this mix and finally pouring in some rose water to make a thick paste which should be applied evenly on the face. This helps to treat the acne, tighten the pores and leaves the face fresh and glowing.
