She shares skincare and makeup tips that work for her in few easy steps and they come in handy:

1. Never overwash the face

Washing the face every time makes the skin dry out and to make up for lost moisture, the skin (over)produces more oil to keep the skin nourished!

Use gentle cleansers against harsh ones so the skin is not striped off of its components

2. Use Clay Masks

Clay masks help to get rid of excess oils off the face.

NEVER skip moisturizing the skin because it's oily this only ends up striping the skin off its essential properties.
