    Free from lots of nasty things too! :)
  • Thanks for the info :)
  • You can buy variety of face masks to help prevent oily skin or you can make your own by mixing and grinding ingredients, though it is little more hard working, so many will not follow this way, therefore coming back to the point you can try
    Skin Republic Spot & Blemish Face Mask : helps rejuvenate and cleanse to get the healthy skin
    Skin Republic Stem Cell Protein Face Mask : to regenerate the skin's natural collagen
    Skin Republic CoQ10 & Caviar Face Mask : help repairs and nourish the skin's elasticity
    Skin Republic Platinum Lift Face Mask : it stimulates the skin with antioxidants, fights against environmental damage

    Most mud-based masks work well on oily skin- not because they aim to dry out your skin but because they can sit on oil skin without irritating it. There are then types further to deal with any issues such as age related issues, spots, dull skin...etc. I know the Bodyshop sells a few mud masks but being that mud masks are so popular they tent to be around in many high street stores and supermarkets.
  • Try a lush fresh mask if there's one near you.They will give you a one use sample pot to try as well if you're not sure which one is right for you ��
  • I always make banana face mask. It's works best on oily skin.
    Take 1 fully ripe banana, 1 tablespoon honey and an orange or a lemon. Mash up the banana and add in the honey. Alternatively, you can blend them in a blender. Mix in a few drops of juice from an orange or a lemon. Apply the mask on your face and leave it for about 15 minutes before rinsing with a cool absorbent soft washcloth or a steaming warm washcloth – as per your choice.
  • Also you can try Green Clay mask (Bentonite mask for oily skin)

    Take 1 tablespoon of green clay, 1 teaspoon of apricot kernel oil and 3 drops of palmarosa essential oil. You can get these ingredients from a natural food or health store. Mix these ingredients together. Mix in a few drops of warm water. If needed add in a little bit more of warm water to make a consistent, spreadable paste. Apply this facial mask and let it dry for say 10 minutes or so. Rinse it off with a warm washcloth.
