(Info
and face mask recipe)
The two main factors for oily skin are genetics and
hormones. You can have genetic predisposition for oily skin, so if your parents
have oily skin there is a big possibility that you will have it too. Hormones can
also cause oily skin, especially during puberty, menopause, or before
menstruation. Androgens are the hormones responsible for this problem.
Oily skin can also be caused by the environment we live in (humidity
and hot weather), over-washing, medications, cosmetics, stress, and poor diet (eating
foods filled with sugar, carbohydrates and dairy).
This mask will help you treat this problem.
The acidic nature of the strawberry (they are rich in
Vitamin C) removes the excess oil from the skin. The lemon has the same effect, but also
reduces the pores and prevents acne and blackheads. Honey has antibacterial and
anti-inflammatory effect to the skin, cleans and moisturizes the skin. The yogurt
contains lactic acid; this helps with dissolving the dead skin cells, reduces
discoloration, prevents acne, and prevents premature aging of the skin.

1 spoon Greek yogurt
1 spoon honey
