well im not quite sure about homemade but you can buy pure coco butter. But since u have oily skin what i would honestly recommend is a chem peel, retin a micro, and/or african black soap called dudu osun or just plain ghanian/nigerian soap. you have to go to an african market to get it or you can order online. It works very well esp. for ppl with oily skin. (if you have really sensitive skin i would test it first)

Hi. I recommend Clinique's Even Better Skin Tone Corrector, which fades scars and hyperpigmenatation, and is suitable for all ethnicities.
For oily skin I recommend Estee Lauder's Sparkling Clean foaming cleanser. Its a bit expensive but is very concentrated so a bottle lasts a long time. I look out for it on ebay and discount beauty websites.
Eloise.
