How often should I exfoliate my face? My skin tends to be sensitive with any oily T zone. ?

don't buy anything





use something gentle like rolled oat - thats one thing i use


you can also wet a washcloth (warm) and rub that gently





another one, this one works really well:


put a blob of spectro jel onto your hand


pour some baking soda in with it (just a bit)


rub your hands together and rub on face





its so effective.





heres a bunch of other mask ideas:





Citrus Skin Remedy


You need lemon juice and orange juice. Mix the two juices together and apply all over your face in an upward and outward motion. Wash off after 10 minutes.





Paste of Yogurt and Banana


Mix one or two bananas in 6.6 oz yogurt and mash it until it begins to look like a paste. After washing face apply this paste before sleeping.





Tomato Remedy


Blend 1 tomato, 1 tsp. lemon juice, and 1 Tbsp instant style oatmeal until just combined, in a paste. Apply to blemished skin, making sure the mixture is thick enough to stay in place. Leave in place 10 minutes. Remove with damp washcloth.





Cool as a Cucumber Yogurt Facial


Puree 1/2 cucumber in blender mix in 1 Tbsp plain yogurt, apply to face. Leave on for 30 minutes. Rinse well.





Apple Zinger Facial Mask


Take 1 medium size apple, grated fine, 5 tbs. honey. Mix the grated apple and honey well. Smooth over skin and let sit for 15 minutes. Rinse off with cool water.





Facial Glowing Mask


Get 1 egg yolk and add 1 table spoon of honey and warm milk of each quantity. Mix all together and apply on face and neck. Leave on for 30 minutes. Rinse off with warm water. This mask will gradually lighten your skin and grant a glow.





Neosporin


Use Neosporin on stubborn whiteheads and pimples overnight to help clear and heal skin.





Pineapple Olive Oil Mask


In a blender, combine 4 large pineapple chunks or 1/2 cup canned, drained pineapple and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Blend until almost smooth. Apply mixture to face with fingertips and leave on for 15 minutes. Rinse face with warm water and pat dry.





Seawater Wash


Wash your face twice a day in warm, salty water.





Oatmeal Scrub


Oatmeal when mashed not only acts as a great scrub but also effectively soaks away the excess oil from your face. The usage of oatmeal paste must be followed by a cold water rinse that helps in contracting the pores.





**** and also


ONLY EXFOLIATE EVERY COUPLE DAYS


every day will actually make your skin produce more oil


so once a week, or every 3 days


depends on which method you useHow often should I exfoliate my face? My skin tends to be sensitive with any oily T zone. ?
Usually its once a day


but if your skin is super sensitive, then every other day is fine.
