             Hi Beauties, oily skin always tends to break out and create problems in the worst of times. Pimples, large pores, greasy and dull appearance are its main features. But did you know oily skin tends to age slower compared to dry skin. Well then its a boon if we take good care to reduce irritating breakouts, large pores etc.

* Mix together 2tsps of fullers earth, 3 drops of clove oil, a pinch of camphor and enough rose water to make a paste of toothpaste consistency. Apply on your face on alternate days, let it dry and wash off.


* Mix together 2tsps each of margosa leaves paste, sandalwood powder, rice powder, green pea powder, half a tsp of camphor and enough rose water to make a paste. Apply on your face and let dry and scrub it off. Repeat on alternate days.
