The Best Homemade Recipes to Treat Oily Skin
Homemade beauty recipes are definitely worth trying out. They are all natural, you know exactly what is in them and better yet - you can save a lot of money by preparing your own skincare products. Here are a few of the best oily skin homemade recipes that you should find really helpful:  

Oily Skin Strawberry and Lemon Face Mask
Strawberries and lemons are natural astringents and they really do help with oily skin. You will need:  

Simply blend all of the ingredients together and apply onto the face for about ten minutes. The recipe above will suffice for two applications. It is important to prepare the mask prior to each usage to ensure freshness and effectiveness. This mask does not contain any preservatives and thus, has a very short shelf-life.  

Plain Yogurt
Plain yogurt has several skin-benefiting uses-- it can be used as a moisturiser, a face mask or even as a cleanser to help balance oily skin. Apply plain yoghurt onto your problematic oily skin areas, leave it on for twenty minutes and then rinse it off with warm water. For best results, repeat this process daily.  

Tea Tree Oil and Sea Salt
A great way to balance out oily skin is by using Tea Tree oil, which has natural and soothing properties. Tea Tree oil freshens the skin without leaving it dry. All you need for this recipe is some coarse sea salt and around ten drops of Tea Tree oil.

Mix both ingredients, rub the mixture onto your face in circular motions and wash it off. The salt exfoliates the skin, while the Tea Tree oil clears the skin and dries up the oily areas.

Overall, the above recipes are inexpensive and effective. You should notice results after a week or two but sometimes results may take a few months to be completely noticeable!
