Why aloe skincare is the best medicine for oily skin ......

Follow these instructions to test for it:

Start by washing and drying your face. It’s a good idea to take a couple of pieces of rice paper and blot on different areas of the skin including your t-zone (forehead, nose and chin).

If the rice paper is noticeably oily after blotting with additional sheets, then you have oily skin. This can also feel painful, achy, or otherwise uncomfortable where breakouts like acne or rosacea are present.

If you see oil present on the paper from the t-zone, but experience dryness on you cheeks, then you have combination skin. There are other types of combination skin, but the important thing to keep in mind is that those with this skin type show 2 or more skin type characteristics. Now, let’s get down to what causes most oily skin problems. Many products on the market today found at your local drug store or Wal-Mart are made with harsh chemicals and are usually heavy on the alcohol. These chemicals strip away the natural oil your skin produces and leave your skin pH out of balance and dehydrated. As a result, your skin works even harder to replace the oil that has been lost and you end up with skin that is over oiled.

However, excess oil does not equal hydration! The more products you use to strip away the excess oil, the harder your skin will continue to work to replace it. Even all natural ingredients can sometimes have a similar effect by using herbs or plant extracts that are too strong in formulation or maybe their just too strong naturally to use on the skin. While they may have a curative effect internally, they just may not balance the skin when applied directly on it.

Another aspect is fragrances and synthetic dyes that are used to make the product a more pleasing color or scent. Synthetic fragrances have been found to block cells in the body from eliminating waste. This can block not only pores on your face, but clog various cells throughout the body.

Use of these chemicals can also increase sensitivity to other toxins you may come in contact with. So not only could it cause an allergic reaction from the fragrance, but it could cause you to have allergic reactions to other that you may have otherwise not had a direct allergy to. Some reactions to synthetic dyes or fragrances could include, skin irritation, disruption of hormones, and even digestive problems.
