Is there a method to prevent Apple OS from applying its default styles to form fields, scrollbars, and other elements?

Is it possible to remove the default Apple styling (such as the blue glow) applied to focused DOM elements in OS X or iOS using CSS or JavaScript?

I've searched online but couldn't find any information on this topic. I'm starting to think that since it's part of the OS itself and not just the browser, it might not be possible to overwrite or avoid it.
I'm also interested in customizing the scrollbars of Apple OS browsers without using JavaScript replacements, and a solution that works across all browsers. I'm beginning to think it's a similar issue (part of the OS and not customizable by the browser), but I wanted to confirm.

Alternatively, I could use the -webkit-scrollbar pseudo-elements that CSS offers, but that would only be effective in Chrome, Safari, and other webkit browsers, correct?

Thank you for any assistance! <3

Simply adding outline:none; to the specific element will do the trick.
