Give yourself break: Oily skin can be caused by genetics, dietary choices, too much stress or hormone changes in the body due to puberty. Women also are more prone to oily skin during menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or menopause and while taking birth control pills.Try home remedies like egg white, lemon juice, tomatoes, apples , cucumbers and yogurt as exfoliating agents in different combination to see which one works.
