Even though the remainder of your face is prone to oiliness, always remember that the skin around your eyes is very delicate. Soak a cotton wool (cotton ball) pad with a non oily remover and hold it over your eyes for a few seconds to give it time to dissolve the make-up. Then lightly stroke away the mascara and make-up from the eyelids and your upper and lower lashes. | |
Splash your face with tepid water, then lather up with a gentle foaming facial wash. This is a better choice than ordinary soap, as it won't strip away moisture from your skin, but it will remove the grime, dirt and oil that accumulates during the day. Massage gently over damp skin with your fingertips, then carefully rinse away with lots of warm water. | |
Soak a cotton wool (cotton, ball) pad with a refreshing astringent lotion. Sweep it over your skin to refresh and cool it. This liquid should not irritate or sting your skin if it does, swap to a product with a gentler formulation or dilute your existing one with some distilled water (available from a pharmacist). Continue until the cotton wool comes up completely clean. | |
Even oily skin needs a gentle moisturizer, because a moisturizer helps to seal water into the top layers of the skin to keep your face soft and supple. Choose a light, watery fluid rather than a heavy formulation, as this will be enough for you. | |
Allow the moisturizer to sink into your skin for a few minutes, then press a clean tissue over your face to absorb the excess and to prevent a shiny complexion. |
