Dealing with oily skin, especially during the monsoon months, can be a challenge. Excess oil production can lead to a shiny T-zone, clogged pores, and acne breakouts. Fortunately, a simple, natural remedy using two common kitchen ingredients, orange and curd, can be a game-changer.
DIY Orange And Curd Face Mask For Oily Skin
Wondering how to get glowing skin naturally at home? Your searches end here! Here is a simple DIY orange and curd face mask for oily skin.
Ingredients
- One tablespoon orange peel powder
- One tablespoon plain curd
- Half a tablespoon of gram flour
Procedure
- In a clean bowl, combine the orange peel powder and plain curd. If you're including gram flour for deeper cleansing, add it now.
- Stir everything well until you have a smooth, consistent paste. It should be thick enough to apply without dripping.
- Before applying the mask, gently cleanse your face and neck with a mild cleanser suitable for oily skin. Pat your skin dry. This ensures your skin is prepped to absorb the mask's benefits.
- Using clean fingers or a flat brush, apply an even layer of the paste all over your face and neck, carefully avoiding the delicate eye and lip areas.
- Leave the mask on for 15-20 minutes, or until it starts to feel slightly dry. Once the time is up, wet your hands and gently massage your skin in circular motions as you rinse.
- Gently pat your skin dry with a soft, clean towel and follow up immediately with a lightweight moisturiser to lock in hydration.
- For best results, use the face mask once or twice a week to see the visible changes.

Benefits Of Ingredients
Orange is a powerhouse of Vitamin C and citric acid, making it an excellent natural astringent and toner. Whereas, curd contains lactic acid that provides gentle exfoliation and removes dead skin cells.
