 Oily facial skin is not only the source of a huge number of problems, but also can cause some rather serious diseases. Especially if you do not provide proper facial care. Oily skin, as a rule, gives off an unpleasant shine, large pores, acne, uneven skin.
To slightly improve the condition of the skin, you can use decoctions of medicinal herbs, masks from some natural products. That is, those products that contain absolutely no chemistry (dyes, preservatives).
Caring for any type of skin consists of several actions: cleansing, toning, nutrition.
The cleansing process is necessary to prevent the development of bacteria, a favorable environment for which is excess fat on the skin, resulting in acne. It is worth noting that it is advisable for owners of oily skin to wash only with cold water, because cold water helps to narrow the pores and does not allow an increase in skin greasiness.

You can wipe the most oily areas of your skin with either lemon slices or a swab dipped in lemon juice. To reduce the concentration of lemon juice, you can dilute it with water (a teaspoon of juice in half a glass of water).

- oak and willow bark - pour 200 ml of chopped bark of both trees in one teaspoon. boiling water, then insist, strain and add a tablespoon of any vinegar, pour mineral boiled water (1:10).
