Normal, Oily and Dry Skin
Normal Skin
Clean your face in the morning with milk and wheat flour. Use a moisturizer and protect it from the sun. At night clean with milk again; massage with a nourishing cream and wipe off before sleeping. Once a week use a honey and egg mask.
• A daily routine of skin care is a must for everyone. A good complexion is the background for an attractive face. If your skin is in bad condition because of acne, pimples, or blackheads, consult a dermatologist. Cleanliness is the beginning of a clear complexion. Different types of skin require different care.
• keep your skin-care programme simple, so that you will do it every day. Again, it is the daily care that counts.
• Wear makeup that is appropriate for you and your job.
Oily Skin
Oily skins are sometimes quite troublesome as the excessive secretion of oil leads to not only dull looking skin but also blackheads and pimples. One must be very careful and regular with a proper cleansing routine as well as be careful about what one eats. If you can follow a strict diet control routine for a month you will see the difference in your skin. Start by emphasizing more on salads, fruits, fresh green veg. and lots of water and fresh veg and fruit juices. As for your skin wipe face with cold rose water several times a day and also start to use a face gel that will remove excess oil. At home make a pack with the following : sandalwood powder, fuller’s earth, lemon, juice, paste of neem leaves and a little grated cucumber. Mix this paste and apply all over the face and neck and leave on till dry. Dab with milk and then wash off with ice cold water, you will feel your skin tingling afresh.
Oily Skin :
• Deep cleanse with skin tonic or antiseptic solution before using soap. Any neem soap is preferable to keep common skin problems at bay.
• Oily hair makes the face look oily too, one must keep hair clean and dandruff-free.
• Always apply a non-oily base before going out since your skin is exposed to sunrays, pollution, dust and dirt. The base will protect your skin to a large extent.
Dry Skin
Dry skin is’ difficult to handle and it is necessary for you moisturize it well daily. Use cactus and almond based creams and also use face packs that have a moisturizing as well as tightening effect on the skin. Apply honey all over face and neck and leave on for about 15 to 20 minutes. Almond oil applied and massaged into the skin is very good, but should be wiped off with a moist cotton wool.
Dry Skin :
• Keep your skin well-moisturized preferably with herbal skin lotions since premature aging is more obvious on dry skin.
• Keep your hair dandruff-free as it causes scarring on dry skin.
• Drink a lot of water to keep your skin looking fresh and supple.
