In e past, I used to wash my face with cleanser whenever i feel uncomfortable by e excess oil. That's ard 4 times per day (Morning, early afternoon, evening & nite).
I've heard tat it's best to use ur facial cleanser 2 times per day (morning & night) & not more. Let's say, in the middle of the day, ard afternoon, you feel tat ur skin is starting to get oily. What will u guys do?
the more u wash the more oily it becomes
it's natural of the skin to produce oil
morning once nite once is the ideal
if in the day, u want to remove excess oil, jus dab with blotter
but oso cannot overblot
Wat brand cleanser u using?
I've used Loreal in e past, but I dun find its effectiveness.
Currently, trying on Nivea Hydro-foam & Dermalogica special cleansing gel.
wats ur skin type?
Haha. I guessed its between normal & slight oily.
But juz hate those stubborn oil shine on e face in e afternoon. More embarassing when u're taking a photo during tat time of e day -.-"
u can blot
or use loose powder
Don't wash your face too many times or you skin will produce more oil, Wash face with facial scrub - exfoliating ones are really good. Then apply cleanser
Guessed tat washing too many times a day is really not a gd idea after all. Same reply from both of u somemore....haha.. Thanks.
I also has oily face but I don't care about excessive daily cleaning. Only concern with daily cleansing only when I have a presentation or meeting with ppl.
My main worry is exfoliating. If I don't exfoliate the dead skin, the oil gets trapped between the new dermis and the dead skin and I get pimples, blobbed skin esp around my nose, side face.
In the past I seldome exfoliate, so I got blocked pores and the pimples. Sometimes, they can grew inwards, caused by the oiliness. Now I very scared. I exfoliate by double cleanisng once a week or fortnightly.
err.... wat u toking about
exfoliate and double-cleansing are 2 different things.......

What I mean is I exfoliate first than I go for deep cleansing to remove deeply blocked pores.

Haha, wat i meant was that I've just used 2 times only, still awaiting for e effect... hope it'll b fine for me
u can use it on alternate days for a start
then later can reduce to 2 times a week

suppose to
u can 磨掉 blackheads if they are ripe enough
or 磨掉 the dead skin around the blackhead so u can squeeze them out more easily
lol blackheads machiam like fruit like that... the pesky kind. ok off to shower and cleanse face.
Actually, I've tried Mandom's Refresh Facial Cool (Scrub type), which gave me a cooling sensation after washing. Quite shiok
But come to think abt it, I'm juz scrubbing my face every day with its tiny beads, & i dunno if itz advisable... That's y i've changed to other brands.
those beads in facial scrubs are bery mild
does not relli scrub well
have to use proper scrub
oh.. another new thing learnt...
