Oily Skin Natural Remedies

Try these oily skin natural remedies. This is where a person complains of excess oils of the skin. They have fewer wrinkles and look younger for longer, but I guess it depends on your perspective, and if the oils are causing too much trouble. If you are noticing clothing staining, it might be a problem.

Causes of oily skin are unknown and there may be a genetic component. The good old American junk food fast food diet may also be a contributor.

Modern medication creams are a temporary fix for oily skin and the ultimate cause is not addressed.

From the natural perspective oily skin comes from a dietary imbalance, especially fast foods, tobacco, excess alcohol (more than 2 drinks a week), soda pop, and fast foods.

Topical treatments with natural cleansers help oily skin temporarily and beat chemical based popular treatments. Constipation may be a factor as toxins may be recycled.

Natural Healing Protocol — First, choose an herb. Then add a cell salt or cell salt solution. Finally, choose the homeopathic remedy that fits your situation best.

Your ability to heal will depend on the severity and length of time symptoms have been present.
