So, lately, I've been seeing a lot of good things about rice flour/powder. First off, I have really oily/combination oily skin, and I really hate how my makeup just falls off because of my oily skin. Then I saw this DIY mask on BubzBeauty on rice flour.
Rice flour, water, etc. has been used for many centuries by Asian women. Hm..so I was like, why not give this a try?
Also, when I was on www.makeupgeek.com, I saw this product called: Palladio Rice Powder. Apparently, it was a good setting powder for those with oily skin, so I decided to give it a try. It was really cheap (only $4.89) too.
BUT, they didn't sell it in a WalMart or drugstore near my house, and honestly, I was just too lazy to order it online for just some little powder thing. So, I was decided that since my family uses rice flour a lot, we have packages and packages of it. They're really cheap and easy to get at Asian supermarkets (usually only a dollar or two) So, I just took a package and used my old Arsainte Eco-Therapy Ultra Cream jar.
Of course, you can't use a lot of it, because it's just pure flour and you'll just end up looking like a ghost. I only used a really small amount, and amazingly, it kept my skin oil-free for the whole day. :) Course, my nose doesn't really count, but it did lessen it incredibly.
It's definitely something I will continue to use. It's inexpensive, easy to obtain, and works great on my skin. Since it's just pure rice flour, it also didn't cause my skin to have any reactions to it (I have really sensitive skin.)
That's all for now. :)
It seems like you have similar skin to me, I will have to try this technique for sure^-^
