Oily skin!

Hey so I don't know about you guys but I hate having oily skin. Because personally I think having only skin tends to look greasy, dirty and unattractive because of the excess sebum that lubricate the skin around the clock. The only good thing about it is that having oily skin ages slower than any other skin types so not bad huh? But still, thinking of the present I do have a few ways to get around it which really does work!

• Wash, rinse or cleanse your face daily but not more than twice a day because washing it too much strips your face of skin and natural oils (good oils!) making it dry and week which is just as bad if not worse as having oily skin
• Avoid alcohol based cleansers, especially if you have sensitive skin as sometimes they do tend to sting :(
• Drink water! I know no one (That I know of) does this but your supposed to drink 8+ glasses of water a day! water is a miracle worker, it is unbelievably beneficial in all areas like oily skin.
• Try to avoid eating oily and greasy foods with heated fat as it does aggravate the skin
• Don't use any heavy make up. The heavier the make up the more clogged up your pores get which is something you do not want. Most of them contain Cholesterol, triglycerides, fatty acids and oils which are best to avoid!  
• Instead use natural light make up products which promote on oily free skin

The only reason people get oily skin is because pores become blocked, because of dirt, too much dead skin, or stress, sebum (Which is the oil) quickly builds up under the surface of the skin. Since the pores get all clogged up their not getting any oxygen. Then small colonies of bacteria in skin follicles and start spreading feeding on the sebum. These are the bacteria which cause acne. If you do have acne then start doing this first to reduce the oil and clear the skin because that will make a difference 

If you do want something what will speed up the process then use this night moisturiser, It helps clear out your pores and give you more of a fresh look in the morning, it helps get rid of the bacteria which causes acne. It's called "Clinique Super Rescue Antioxidant Night Moisturiser" One bottle will last you 6 months (give or take a few weeks) The only thing is the price is a little steep, its £35 in boots however trust me it is worth it!

If your really not wanting to spend much then go for "Garnier Skin Naturals Pure Anti-Blackhead Deep Pore Wash" It is perfect to add to your daily regime It really helps unclog pores, get rid of black heads and impurities and also remove the bacteria which causes acne. And its only £2.65 per 150ml bottle, with is pretty great!
