When caring for oily skin, it is important to maintain a balance. It is necessary not only to cleanse the skin, but also to saturate it with moisture. Otherwise, the sebaceous glands will, on the contrary, produce even more sebum, which can lead to inflammation. For more intensive skin care, it is advisable to apply a mask 1-2 times a week, and the functions of the product can be different - from fighting free radicals and moisturizing to narrowing pores and cleansing.
Whether to make a mask yourself or buy a ready-made one – the decision is yours. In the first case, you save significantly, but in the second, you buy a multifunctional product that satisfies several skin needs at once. In addition, you do not have to waste time and effort preparing a healthy mixture. In this review, we looked at both homemade mask recipes and products from famous brands.
Signs and causes of oily skin
Oily skin is easily recognized and is the most noticeable of all skin types. It is distinguished by increased sebum secretion with an oily sheen and enlarged pores. The latter are almost always a “refuge” for pimples and blackheads - if you do not pay proper attention, such skin will very soon turn into problem skin.
Despite the large number of disadvantages, oily skin type has a big advantage - if you do not neglect care, it ages much more slowly and is reluctant to wrinkle
The reasons for increased sebum secretion are different:
- heredity;
- any disruption of the endocrine system (from taking hormonal drugs to diabetes);
- dermatological diseases;
- poor nutrition;
- bad habits;
- irregular or lack of care;
- stress, chronic fatigue or nervous breakdowns;
- autonomic disorders;
- ecology;
- diseases of the digestive system;
- excess weight.
If genetics are to blame, then nothing can be changed - the struggle for a clean face will drag on for a lifetime. In other cases, it is necessary to look for and eliminate the original source of the problem. But it’s almost impossible to do this on your own. You will have to contact a dermatologist who will help determine the correct diagnosis and prescribe treatment.
Care for oily skin in summer: features
High temperature and humidity are two big troubles for oily skin. Under such conditions, the sebaceous glands increase secretion production, and the face begins to shine faster. Sweat glands are also activated, and more dust is attracted to damp skin. There is nothing good in a polluted atmosphere either - when the city is windless and hot, smog and harmful impurities accumulate, which have an adverse effect on the skin. In turn, under the influence of UV radiation, the number of free radicals increases, to which the skin responds by thickening the surface layer of cells.
All of the above creates favorable conditions for the appearance of inflammation, deterioration of complexion and general well-being. Clients with oily skin are more likely to want to cleanse their face and may want to start using regular scrubs to get rid of dead skin cells. Indeed, such procedures help exfoliate the surface of the epidermis, but you should not get carried away with them, since regular scrubbing injures the skin. Ask the client about home care and adjust if necessary.
We try not to make the situation worse
Do not get carried away with drying masks, acidic and alcohol-containing products. At first, they seem like a salvation, but soon the opposite effect occurs - the face will begin to protect itself from dryness, intensively producing sebum. Such a confrontation can lead to disruption of the sebaceous glands.
Eating habits
Poor nutrition is one of the common reasons for the appearance of pimples, blackheads and blackheads on the face. It can also affect the activity of sebum secretion. A few tips to follow to “cleanse” your face from the inside:
- refusal of hunger strikes, strict diets, etc.;
- meals at the same time;
- moderate consumption of sugar and salt;
- compliance with the drinking regime - at least 1–1.5 liters of water;
- a minimum of spicy, fried, fatty, sweet and starchy foods;
- refusal of semi-finished products and “food waste”;
- preference is given to boiling, stewing and baking;
- Protein foods cannot be excluded - if you decide to give up meat, replace it with plant analogues (soybeans, beans, etc.);
- The diet should include fruits and vegetables.
Buckwheat is useful because it cleanses the body and removes toxins - regular use of it can reduce the number of acne on the face
Homemade masks - rules and frequency of application
The mixtures are prepared only from fresh ingredients and without the use of metal utensils - they oxidize the ingredients. In addition, before the first use, you need to conduct a test: apply a little mass behind the ear or on the wrist. After 30 minutes, the excess is removed, and if after a day there are no signs of allergy, the mask can be used on the face.
The products are distributed onto cleansed skin. Application frequency: 1–2 times a week. It is recommended to alternate drying and moisturizing formulations.
Do not stretch or rub the skin - the masks are distributed using a special brush or fingers, moving along the massage lines
Tips for caring for oily skin
The main rule is constant care in the morning and evening. Oily skin is not one of those skin types where you might forget to wash your face in the morning. The minimum program must include:
- removing cosmetics with makeup remover;
- cleansing with foam;
- toning with tonic;
- applying cream.
Scrubbing is done 2-3 times a week, and every 7-10 days - peeling based on fruit acids.
Oily skin needs regular moisturizing, but make sure that the cosmetics are appropriate for your type and age
Nutritious
To compensate for the lack of certain elements in the tissues of the dermis, saturate it with moisture, and improve the external condition, it is recommended to resort to a herbal mask. A folk remedy that combines several types of herbs will help cope with the main problems of oily skin.
Preparation:
- Combine 10 g. chamomile flowers, string leaves, lingonberries, currants.
- Brew the plant material with 70 ml boiling water.
- Infuse, strain.
- Add pureed pumpkin (25 g) to the vegetable broth.
- Thicken with rice flour (add a little at a time, watching the consistency of the composition - it should resemble thick sour cream).
Apply to the dermis and leave for 20 minutes.
Homemade mask recipes
When using homemade products, you need to experiment, taking into account the individual characteristics of the skin. There is no universal recipe - if clay works for someone, then a cucumber or oatmeal mask may be a panacea for others.
Mask for very oily skin
You can get rid of strong fat content with a simple recipe by mixing 1–1.5 tbsp. l. blue clay with 1-2 tbsp. l. mineral water. The mass is applied for 15–20 minutes, then washed off. It works on the “express” principle, which is why it is used no more than once a week. The effect is visible after 1 application.
Honey mask
Honey has not only a nourishing but also an antiseptic effect on the skin. In addition, it soothes inflammation and promotes their speedy healing. Required:
- egg white;
- 1–2 tsp. honey;
- 1 tbsp. l. chopped oatmeal;
- 0.5 tsp. almond oil
Mix the ingredients and apply for 10–20 minutes, then wash with warm water. This mask can be used as a scrub; it gently exfoliates, eliminating impurities and shine.
You can also add lemon juice, essential oils, bread, crushed cereals and dairy products to a lemon mask for oily skin.
Egg mask
The advantage of the egg mixture is that it has a double effect: the white dries out the skin and pimples, while the yolk perfectly nourishes and prevents the formation of peeling. And if you add other components to it, you can even out your complexion. Preparation:
- Beat the egg until a stable foam forms.
- Stir in 1 tsp. lemon juice and liquid honey.
- To get a light rejuvenating effect, you can add 1 tsp. potato starch. For better toning, replace it with 1 tsp. cucumber pulp.
The mask is applied to the face, neck and décolleté and washed off with cold water after 15–20 minutes. An intensive course includes up to 10 applications with an interval of 2 days, after which it is advisable to reduce use to 2 times a week.
To increase nutritional properties, honey and basic vegetable oils are added to the egg mask.
Clay mask
Clay-based mixtures are famous for their absorbent effect; they help tighten pores, perfectly clean and mattify the skin. Ingredient options for making masks:
- classic: 1 tbsp. l. cosmetic clay;
- 1 tbsp. l. milk or kefir;
- 1 tsp. black clay;
- 1 tbsp. l. white clay;
- 1 tbsp. l. green clay;
- 1 tbsp. l. red clay;
The selected components must be thoroughly mixed and applied immediately. After 10–20 minutes, rinse off, preferably using herbal infusions. To eliminate oily shine, 1-3 procedures are enough, but for a lasting effect you need at least 2 months.
Do not let the clay dry on your face
Kefir mask
Kefir mattifies and tones the skin, and with prolonged use, removes stagnant spots. Therefore, it is often included in masks to eliminate oiliness. Some effective ones:
- tightening pores and tightening: whipped egg white;
- 1 tsp. kefir;
- 1 tsp. honey;
- 0.5–1 tsp. starch;
- 1 tbsp. l. cottage cheese;
- 2 tbsp. l. thick kefir;
The components are thoroughly mixed and, regardless of the chosen recipe, applied for 10–20 minutes. Wash off with water, for visible results it takes from 2 to 6 months.
To prevent kefir from dripping off your face, add flour, starch or gelatin to the mask.
Masks based on vegetables and fruits
For vitaminization, berry, vegetable and fruit mixtures are used. But they are combined not with nutritious sour cream, but with kefir, ground cereals, protein or starch.
Several effective combinations:
- nutritious: 1 banana (mashed);
- 1 tbsp. l. oatmeal;
- 1 tsp. citrus juice;
- 20–30 ml honey;
- grapefruit pulp (2-3 slices);
- 1 tbsp. l. starch;
- 2 tbsp. l. kefir;
- pulp of a pre-cooked apple (without peel, choose sour and green varieties);
Grind the ingredients, combine and grind. The exposure time should not exceed 20 minutes, wash with plain water. Positive skin changes are noticeable after 2–4 months.
Use a variety of fruits and vegetables in homemade masks - this will help you quickly find a truly effective “formula”
Oatmeal Exfoliating Blend
Oatmeal is great for mattifying and cleansing. A simple recipe is to mix a few tablespoons of ground rolled oats with yogurt to make a thick “porridge.” And a more complex one, aimed at narrowing pores and evening out tone:
- The egg is beaten into a thick foam and mixed with chopped orange zest. Leave for 30 minutes.
- Add 1 tbsp to the mixture. l. cereal and 1 tsp. lemon juice (pomegranate).
Both masks are distributed onto problem areas, and after 10–20 minutes they are washed off using the principle of a scrub. After 5-10 weeks, the complexion becomes more even, and the skin becomes soft and without greasy shine.
Before completely rinsing the oatmeal off your face, massage your face for a few minutes
Cucumber-protein mask
If you need to eliminate dull skin and signs of fatigue along with oily shine, use this recipe:
- Grind fresh cucumber on a fine grater and squeeze the juice into a prepared container. Divide the pulp into 2 parts and place them in pieces of gauze.
- Generously wipe dry face with juice. While the skin dries, beat the egg white into a foam.
- Apply a second layer of cucumber juice, then carefully distribute the protein. Lie down, placing the remaining cucumber in gauze on your closed eyelids. When the mask begins to dry out and tighten - from 20 to 40 minutes - wash off with a contrast wash.
This approach allows you to noticeably refresh and visually improve the skin in 1–4 applications. Although, for a lasting result, regular procedures will, of course, be required.
If there is not enough time for a full procedure, immediately add cucumber pulp to the protein
Herbal mask for porous skin
Concentrated decoctions of medicinal herbs are used as the basis of the product:
- sequences;
- chamomile;
- sage;
- lavender;
- dill;
- parsley;
- calendula;
- bay leaf, etc.
Preparing the decoction and applying the mask:
- For a glass of water you need 2 tbsp. l. greens (6–8 bay leaves). Bring the liquid to a boil and simmer for about 5 minutes, covered and over low heat.
- Beat 1-2 chicken whites and mix with the cooled broth. The product is distributed in at least 3 layers - a new one is applied as the previous one dries.
- After the last application you need to wait 20-30 minutes. Then rinse with warm water or a diluted herbal decoction.
This procedure helps eliminate comedones and acne, and normalizes lipid metabolism of the skin. As a result, after 3-6 months the face looks healthier, and oiliness is no longer as pronounced.
Washing with decoctions is especially useful for problem skin, and some of them are taken orally
Yeast lifting mask
Yeast is a component that helps dry out acne, tighten pores and tighten the skin. For the recipe you need:
- 2 tbsp. l. yogurt;
- 1 tsp. lemon juice;
- 1 tbsp. l. yeast;
- 3-5 drops of hydrogen peroxide.

- Add peroxide to lemon juice.
- Combine the components of the mask and distribute over the face with massaging movements. Leave for up to half an hour, during which you should lie down - the skin will be “pulled” towards the center, and not down. The dried mask is soaked in warm water and washed off with cold water.
The appearance of the skin improves after 8 weeks of use, but rejuvenation will take at least 4 months.
If your skin is closer to combination or has flaking, replace the fermented milk products in the mask with milk or cream
Cleansing mask with bread
Another way to cleanse oily skin for a long time is to use a bread mask. Preparation:
- Soak a slice of black bread in 3-5 tbsp. l. mineral water or kefir.
- When the pulp becomes viscous, grind it into a kind of puree. The mixture should not be too liquid.
- The product is applied in a thick layer and washed off after 15–20 minutes.
This mask allows you to mattify the skin without unnecessary drying. And after 1–3 months it reduces the number of blackheads and enlarged pores.
Washing for oily skin
To normalize and maintain the condition of the skin at the proper level, it is advisable to wash your face without using sponges, brushes or washcloths. Instead of water, use herbal decoctions:
- linden flowers;
- mint;
- nettle;
- parsley;
- calendula;
- horsetail, etc.
The preparation is simple - brew 2-3 tbsp in a glass of boiling water. l. chopped plants. And, after about half an hour, the concentrated broth is diluted in a liter of warm water, which is used for washing.
Distribute masks, scrubs and any other products with a cotton pad or finger pads
Acne film mask
The recipe allows you to deeply cleanse the pores, and if you apply the product in several layers, it accelerates the healing of inflammation. Done once a week. Required:
- 1 t. aspirin;
- 1 t. activated carbon;
- 1 tsp. gelatin;
- 1 tbsp. l. milk.
Cooking process:
- Crush the tablets and mix, adding gelatin powder. Pour in milk, it softens the composition (if using water, the mask will have to be torn off “with a fight”).

- It is necessary to narrow the cleansed pores. Mix another mask, beating the egg white with 1 tsp. lemon juice. Apply for 15–20 minutes and wash thoroughly. The effect is immediate and visible almost immediately, although inflammation will take 4-10 weeks to heal.
A thin layer of gelatin mask dries quickly and draws out blackheads well, but it is painful to remove
Fruit mask against wrinkles
A simple recipe that will help smooth out wrinkles that appear on the skin:
- Mash a fresh banana and grate it with half a grated cucumber. Add kiwi pulp and 1 tbsp. l. potato starch.
- Use 1-3 times a week, applying a generous, even layer to the skin. After 15–20 minutes, wash and apply cream. The result will not appear immediately, it will take at least 3 months.

Recipe for oily skin after 20

- Wash and peel the cucumber, removing seeds and peel. Grate on a fine grater.
- Beat egg white with 1 tsp. any base oil.
- Mix the components, adding 0.5–1 tbsp. l. honey.
The product is applied for 10–15 minutes, then rinsed off thoroughly. After 4–8 weeks, the appearance and color of the skin improves, oily shine and signs of fatigue disappear.
The juice should be drained from the grated cucumber, otherwise the consistency of the mask may be too liquid
Smoothing mask for skin 30+
After 30, even oily skin needs nutrition. Therefore, it is recommended to alternate protein recipes with yolk recipes:
- Grind chicken yolk with 1 tbsp. l. natural honey.
- Add 0.5–1 tbsp. l. corn or grape seed oils.
- Apply for 15 minutes, then wash.
Such a mask helps to cope with oily shine and at the same time serves as a prevention of early aging. It can be used to eliminate facial wrinkles around the eyes. The effect appears after 2–6 months.
Yolks are a source of beneficial microelements (iron, phosphorus, calcium, etc.), antioxidants, fatty acids, as well as vitamins A, E, D and B
Rejuvenating mask after 40–45

Apricot oil improves complexion, stimulates regeneration and is one of the “light oils” that practically do not clog pores
Clay
For oily skin, products based on white clay are considered especially useful, which has anti-inflammatory properties, whitens the surface of the dermis, and reduces the activity of the sebaceous glands. It is easy to prepare a mask at home, which will certainly help eliminate most of the problems inherent in oily skin.
Preparation:
- Pour white clay (25 g) with mineral water (30 ml), knead the mixture.

Reviews
As I continue my acquaintance with Tamba medicinal cosmetics, I never cease to be surprised and admired. The means already tested made only a favorable impression. I also liked the results of using the mud mask for oily skin. She became soft, tender and more hydrated. There was no redness or new rashes. And after a few days I noticed that the old ones were almost gone. Except that I never received the narrowing of pores promised by the manufacturer - mine first became more noticeable, and then returned to their previous state.

Kora face mask “Sebobalance with prebiotic” is intended for the care of oily skin. I bought it for the summer, because my mixed type is becoming pancake-like and “blooms” with all the facets of clogged pores. In addition, my latter are dilated and I have a tendency to develop painful subcutaneous formations. Last summer I even visited an atheroma on my cheek!
The mask’s tube has a composition printed with very tempting active ingredients. I would even say that they are rare for cosmetic products. For example, I simply adore succinic acid in tablets and gobble it up on both cheeks, but I’ve never seen it in cosmetics.
I used the product in 2 ways indicated on the package. By the way, at the time of purchase, I miraculously cleaned myself with some poison from Siberian Health and huge red pimples ran down my face. There is somewhere to roam! The mask is white in color and of medium thickness, but it feels very greasy and “sets” slowly on the skin. During application, a slight tingling sensation was felt, which quickly passed. I still don’t understand whether it’s necessary this way or whether the expiring date was giving signals...
The result of the so-called course - the skin could achieve the same “effect” naturally
So, method 1 consists of a course of 5 procedures in a row overnight. Shortly before bed, I applied the product to cleansed skin and waited about 40 minutes for it to dry (I didn’t want to stain my pillowcases). I washed it off in the morning. There is no result. I was not impressed at all, although there were some promises: from tone equalization to greasiness control. The color did not become smoother, but the greasiness was increased and remained the same. The only effect was that the skin was nourished and pleasant to the touch, this cannot be taken away. But regular syntomycin ointment from a pharmacy treats oily skin much better, removing rashes and spots from them in 2-3 weeks. But you can’t use it all the time, it’s addictive.
Method 2 “according to the standard”: applied 1-2 times a week, left it on for half an hour and washed it off. And, again, the pores have not narrowed, and the oiliness has not gone away, but it nourishes well. Is it possible to do without such a mask? Perhaps it’s calm. Nourishing products are not uncommon; I bought this product specifically to combat oily skin. It ended just a couple of days ago, I won’t repeat it.

I use blue clay to care for combination skin. I notice dryness from it, but the oily areas become normal, and the result is visible immediately. And even though your face turns very red afterwards (it subsides in about an hour), I like the product: there are no acne, the skin looks fresher and whiter. Although now I make clay masks once a month or even less often, they have become too drying.

I have combination skin with an oily T-zone. Enlarged pores and blackheads. Ultrasonic cleaning has to be done every week, and the shelves in the bathroom and the departments in the closet have long been filled with Holy Land cosmetics. Why? It's simple, it really works. You will get the promised effect from any product you buy.
Holy Land Cosmetics mask for oily skin perfectly cleanses and tightens pores
It would seem that the composition of Holy Land Cosmetics Special Mask does not contain anything special. But I have never seen such an effect as from this mask. It soothes the skin, and after the first use there is less redness. There is lightening, the tone looks fresher and more even. Blackheads really disappear, and pores become smaller! There are no small tubercles, the skin texture is even and almost perfect. And the best part is that the mask has a cumulative effect.

Skin type is given by nature and, no matter what products we use, it cannot be changed. And although most remedies provide only temporary results, they can hardly be called useless. Comprehensive facial care combined with homemade masks will help visually improve the appearance of oily skin. And with constant use, it will partially solve her problems, be it excessive sebum secretion or rashes.
