NO matter how many times you wash your face, the unflattering shine on your T-zone will appear again. It’s because some facial cleansers strip the skin of moisture, sending your oil glands into overdrive.

To put an end to the vicious cycle, combine ½ cup of orange juice, one tablespoon of cornstarch and a sprinkle of salt in a small bowl.

Smooth over skin and leave on for 10 minutes, then rinse with warm water. The astringent quality of the citric acid in the juice cleanses pores, while the cornstarch-and-salt combo lifts oil without drying out skin. You’ll be left with a flawless finish that lasts for hours.
