Can Milk Of Magnesia Be Used For Vanishing Face Oiliness?
Hello Doctor , I was looking to buy milk of magnesia , is known by the same name in the chemist s shop and is it easily available in Hyderabad ? Is it safe to use it to banish oiliness on face ? Looking forward to hear from you . Thanks in advance . Regards Suman
Hi Suman, Instead of using milk of magnesia to banish oiliness, i would suggest these steps to reduce oiliness and keep skin clear 1) use a salicylic and glycolic acid face wash like ahaglow S or dacne or melawash or saslic etc. Use it twice in a day. keep it for four to five minutes then wash off 2)Use a toner(alcohol free) and a water based moisturiser 3) Apply tretinoin or retinol based cream in night like revize or nexret 4) use a mud mask atleast once a week
