How do I make my skin clearer, less oily Im 17 do tea bags work?

Let me just tell you now I have no intent in buying any creams or whatnot (unless it aloha vitamin e i have that at home) Im look to find out some ';natural'; non-artificial ways to make my skin more clear and flawless.





My first thought was to use green tea bags will it work?





(You know when i say natural i mean anything from nature is there a certain food, drink, vegetable..)How do I make my skin clearer, less oily Im 17 do tea bags work?
I used to have oily T-zone now I have great skin and my tricks are:





Dr. Brommers Magic Soap


18-in-1 Hemp Peppermint


its organic


Its 10 dollars for a bottle, but it lasts MONTHS





Then I used St. Ives collegen lotion








To reduce redness or spot-treat I:





dab toothepaste


dab honey


raw cucumber


raw potatoe





For dark circles:


tea bags


cucumber

For your oily skin yes green tea will work but here are some more recipes.





1/2 cup apple cider vinegar mixed with 1/2 cup water used as a toner.





Also brush cornstarch onto face before applying makeup. The cornstarch absorbs excess oil. ( You can do this even if you don't wear makeup.)





You can also try this:





Peppermint tea %26amp; Green tea used as a toner or skin spritzer throughout the day if needed to get rid of excess oil Refrigerate.





Witch hazel is also great and you can even keep a little bottle in your purse with some cotton balls to get rid of oil. (with hazel breaks down oil throughout the day.)





To make your skin clearer try these. These are the recipes I use for my skin:





Honey Cleanser





1/2 cup honey


1/2 cup glycerin


1 tbs. castile soap


10 drops favorite essential oil (I use lavender or tea tree.)





I use the above recipes (apple cider vinegar, green tea %26amp; witch hazel as toner.)








Papaya mask/exfoliant





Cut papaya in 1 inch chunks. Blend/mash 2 or 3 chunks and store the wrest in the freezer. Apply the blended/mashed papaya and leave on face for 10-20 min. Use 2 or 3x a week.


The papaya may tingle but that just means that the papaya is working and it is breaking down dead skin cells to give that lovely glow and since it breaks down the dead skin it clears out the pores and in turn they shrink!!! (You may not see the results you want until you use it for a while.)





Egg white mask





1 egg white


1 tsp. cornstarch


Beat ingredients. Apple to face, let dry 10-15 min. Rinse.


(Tightens pores. Makes you look like you got a mini face lift!!)





Baking soda microdermbrasion/exfoliant recipe





Make a paste with baking soda and water, then gently rub on face and rinse.





Sea salt glow (my favorite!)





Make a paste using olive oil, fresh lemon juice or water to moisten the sea salt. Apply to face and gently rub skin, rinse.





(olive oil is good for dry or normal skin, lemon juice is better for oily or acne prone skin and water can be used for whichever.)


Clay Facial mask





Choose the right clay for your skin type. (French-oily-acne, bentonite-normal, cosmetic or white-any, kaolinite pink-normal-combo, kaolinite white-dry-mature, kaolinite red-sensitive. Add plain water or floral waters or try wetting agents such as fruit purees . Make a thick paste of the clay. Apply the mask to your skin and let it dry for 20 minutes. Rinse well with warm water and pat dry. Repeat weekly. ( I use french clay)





You can buy some of the clays here:

Hope this helps!!!
well, if you dont want to buy anything, just wash it often with soap and water, 3+times a day, and moisturizer after every time, and drink lots of water, and avoid foods like chocolate, and potato ships, the vitamin E will also help with any acne scarring you might already have.


ive never heard of green tea bags working on acne, but you never know, goji berries are supposed to be great for getting rid of acne, but ive never tried them. also tea tree oil is supposed to be great, but again ,never tried it.








why is your spring break so late? mine was 3 weeks ago.

Can i leave my bags in bond without clearing customs as i am flying back to colombo after three days in chanai?

Most likely not.. The airlines can't really ';store'; your bags until they've been cleared by Customs.. If you were to leave the airport and not claim your bags, the airline would normally clear them for you and put them into storage (and charge you for this storage) or they may consider them to be abandoned property and turn them over the airport authority as unclaimed property-- the airport authority would them dispose of them in accordance with their local policy..





I would strongly advise against doing this.Can i leave my bags in bond without clearing customs as i am flying back to colombo after three days in chanai?
Not a good idea...

  • Why don't they have diapers with small clear plastic sections (like in zip-lock bags)?

    IMVHO one very good way to potty train a kid, is to catch when they are going to the bathroom and lead them to the restroom ASAP until they learn to head to that room themselves.





    Any reasons why diaper companies might not want to try this idea?





    BTW, I'm more concerned about whether such a thing can come out so I can use it...then if I make any money from it. If I wanted to make money I'd be applying for a patent and not posting ideas here, obviously.Why don't they have diapers with small clear plastic sections (like in zip-lock bags)?
    you kinda sound like someone i'd never leave a child withWhy don't they have diapers with small clear plastic sections (like in zip-lock bags)?
    I'm not sure I understand.





    What would be used as the absorbent material that would be clear?





    Anyway, here's my take on the ';catch them when they are going'; idea. Next time you have the urge to pee or poop, stand up and walk away from the toilet. Are you going to continue to go? No, you are going to hold it.





    Ditto for kids. You can catch them in mid-pee or poop, but as soon as you pick them up and put them on the potty, they are going to stop themselves. Its a natural reaction, not really something they are voluntarily doing. If they've been used to peeing while standing up and wearing a diaper, they need to learn the whole sitting down while peeing feeling.





    I don't think clear plastic sections in a diaper will make any difference.
    If diaper companies made a diaper that helped potty train kids too easily, then they would lose profits from making diapers for kids who aren't potty trained yet. By the way, when a baby pees or poops in a diaper, it doesn't just ';stay'; in a certain part of the diaper like your ';front compartment'; ';back compartment'; theory. It gets squished everywhere and it's real fun to clean up. ;o)
    Good Thinking! Lol

    What Does It Mean If My Mare Has A Clear White Liquid Coming From Her Bags?

    I need to know what it means if a mare has clear white liquid coming from her bags. My mare also has a big stomach right now along with a huge bulge on her right side near her flank. You can also see what I think might be kicking in the lower back part of her stomach but it could also be her getting flys off as well. Last year I let my stud horse have free rome of all the mares from early spring until now. If she is pregnant she would be about 9 to 10 months along. Would it be worth my while to take her up to the vet to get an ultra sound done on her?


    let me know if you need more information to answer.





    thank youWhat Does It Mean If My Mare Has A Clear White Liquid Coming From Her Bags?
    This is not exactly a travel question, but i think it is quite obvious your horse is pregnant. You definitely need to consult the vet...tomorrow.
