Default Oily skin and Oily scalp

What do we do when we have oily skin and oily scalp? You will find many tricks and suggestions to do away the extra oil. But let me tell you a few simple ways to tackle the problem. Gram flour or besan mixed with lemon is a fool proof solution to the problem of oily skin. Oily skin needs special attention. Especially when you are going out in the sun. There are many gel based sunscreens available in the market that can be applied on the oily skin before exposing it to the sun. Leave it on you skin for at least 20 minutes before you go out so that it sinks into you skin. An oily skin also needs to be cleansed a lot. You should regularly wash you face with cold or warm water. Oily scalp is another issue that many of us face. Oil massage is very good for hair and scalp. It not only nourishes the hair but also improves blood circulation and is very relaxing. But do not go for hair massage for more than one time in a week. Leave the oil in you hair from 45 minutes to 1 hour and then wash your hair with a shampoo meant for oily hair. Also do not forget to condition you hair. Hope these tips would be benefit you.

You are right, frequent cleaning is a must for oily skin - in the morning and in the evening, for starters, and also any time during the day when you notice "the shine."

Thumbs up Lemon words too

Adding a little lime or lemon juice to your bath can work wonders for oily skin. If you skin is excessively oily, try washing your face twice or thrice a day with a water-lemon juice mix (50:50). Don't use soap and pat dry.

For skin use lukewarm or cool water, as hot water may remove your skin's natural oils. Also to your hair, use warm water when taking a bath if you have oily hair.
