SPF though so u gotta keep away from sun, and too drying to be used
as a night moisturizer =\
Taken from a skincare site :
"[b]Natural Skincare
Half an hour before taking your bath apply on your face half
teaspoon each of lime and cucumber juice mixed together.
If your skin is excessively oily, mix in a few drops of eau de
cologne. This not only helps keep oiliness away but also helps in
refining the pores of the skin by acting as astringent, thereby
preventing acne.
To prevent the problem of your makeup becoming patchy either on the
forehead, chin or nose due to excessive oiliness in these areas,
apply a little cucumber juice on the excessively oily parts of your
face, dry thoroughly and then apply your makeup.
If your whole face turns patchy after makeup is applied on it, then
apply equal parts of lime juice and witch-hazel. Dry well before
putting on your makeup.
Choose an astringent that contains acetone, which is known for
dissolving oil. Strong astringents will do more harm than good,
stimulating an overproduction of oil. "[/b]
