Just want a few beauty tips...


Question Posted Wednesday December 6 2006, 9:18 pm

OK I have a few little things here and there id like to fix. Are there any home remedies, products, or technequies I could use for this.

1.) Oily Hair- ok I have dark sholder length hair and its really oily. I wash it so I know its not dirty. Also im wonderring if hair balm makes it really oily cause I use it in the morning. How can I get it more normal and less oily?

2.) Oily Skin - My skin is also pretty oily. Like it kinda looks shiny in a way and when I take pictures my skin kinda shins at my chin and cheeks and its really annnoying. How can I make my skin less oily?

3.) Exema- i have Exema (not sure how to spell) but its on my head. Its annoying cause when I scratch it it gets into flakes and looks like dandruff. Anyway how to make it go away?

Thats mainly it... Please reply ill try many of the techniques so please dont write things that'll make it way worse

For the Excema, depending on the level of severity, you might be able to manage it with a shampoo created for dandruff, despite it not actually being dandruff. I use Nizoral and it's fairly effective.

For the oily hair, this will likely sound extremely counter-intuitive, but you need to stop washing it as often. Every time you wash it, you stimulate your oil glands to produce more oil, and thus it ends up becoming oilier and oilier more quickly. If you can stand leaving it unwashed for a weekend, start with that. Experts suggest you only wash your hair ever second or even third day to keep it healthy.

As for your oily skin, this again can be over-washing. Get a mild facial cleanser and use it twice a day--once before bed and once when you get up. Some foundations that are meant to reduce oil might help you as well.

But as suggested, it really would be a good idea for you to go see a dermatologist. They specialise in skin care, and they can give you the best answer.

Well for the Oily Hair I would suggest using Garnier Fructis Shampoo and Conditioner. And yes, hair balm can cause your hair do be extremely oily so just try to stop using it for a couple of days. If that doesn't work, try asking your hairdresser what you can do, she IS the professional(: Oily Skin: I would STRONGLY recommend getting Pro-Activ. I have the same exact problem that you do, well I had it but then I got Pro-Activ. Just use it twice a day, once in the morning and once at night. And always moisturize after using it or your skin might get a tad bit flakey. If not, I would suggest carrying around Oil pads with you in your purse or anything. You can usually find them at CVS or any store like that. Just ask someone at the counter because there are a ton of brands you could try. But i'm not sure how to help with Exema, sorryyy :/
