I have really sensitive skin, and it is easily irritated , by literally everything. I was going to try the mask that everyone told me to try last time I asked , but I realized we have no oats right now! Is there anything I can do to fix it without oatmeal? I'm desperate! Help!!

A big thing that helps my redness is moisturizing and drinking lots of water. Nothing takes it away completely though.

I've been moisturizing like crazy because my skin is so dry but also oily. And I try to drink at least ten glasses of water a day! But I don't know what else to do!

Green tea mask is a good one :) getcat least two teabags and a half tablespoon of lemon juice, steep the bags in water for an hour, make sure tea is cool, remove the bags and add in sugar and lemon :) Massage onto your face, leave for 15min and then rinse off with cool water to close pores.

If you have combination skin try two different masks, a mask for dry skin on the areas with dry skin, and a mask for oily skin on the areas with oily skin :) green tinted primer is also good to cover up redness under make-up.

Girl, by looking at your profile picture, & all the other pictures you've posted, to me it looks like you have perfectly skin! If they are not noticeable than please don't touch them, I was you once, I had perfect skin, like completely no acne redness, until I started experimented my face all the time with different products, I was dumb and now have several acne. I've deal with acne for like 2 year now, & nothing seems to be the trick. so you have perfect skin now, Than don't worry about it. (:

Lemon or lime does not belong on the face... lets not use something that will actually destroy the mantle of your skin no matter the concentration.
What products do you have available at home?

Use liquid foundation n finish with a powder. If you're using any type of brush to wash your face, don't. Use your hands.

Do you have aloe vera? It's going to heal and refresh your skin.

In litterly having the same exact problem! And no matter how much I moisturize it doesn't help! If you make a paste of honey and extra Virginia olive oil it can help calm your skin and add some moisture...after I do this mask I wash my face with honey and it seems to help a biy.

Lemon doesn't harm the acid mantle on your face in small doses, that would generally be harsh products used too often, e.g astrigents, and make-up removing wipes :) covered it in college a few weeks ago.
