My skin is reallly oily! any seggestions?
Remove all make-up before going to bed.Eat plenty of foods that are rich in protein. Include lots of leafy vegetables and fresh fruit. Vitamin B2 can help prevent oily skin, so include good sources of B2 by eating wheat germs, whole grains, beans and nuts.





Drink lots of water to prevent from being hydrated.Use an oil-free moisturiser and use oil-control paper everytime your face is too oily.Grapeseed is great for oily skin.





For your pimples,I advice you to apply Clean n Clear active speed clearing gel.It works fat and it great on ski.Low price too.Use a gentle cleanser containg benzoil peroxide or salicylic acid, not more than two times a day.





Gd luck,hope you get rid of your pimples fast and remember to love the skin you're in!

thay have facewash you can get from avon.com and its called porefection it works really good on my skin and also you can get oil sheets from any store such as fredmeyers and/or safeway, walgreens,etc. hope this helped!
Reply:I think you should try blotting paper like the "ELF Shine Eraser" (only $1 I believe at drugstore.com) It removes the oil without messing up your makeup and doesn't leave a residue. You just have to press the paper over your oily areas. But I'm not sure if it will reduce your acne, but I would give it a try!
Reply:One thing I've learned from spending $$$ at dermatologists offices is that you can never keep your face super dry. It is better to balance your skin to prevent breakouts. Wash your face morning and night w/ an oily skin cleanser, then use a toner, then use lotion for acne prone skin. You must also treat from within, meaning by the use of antibiotics. Go to the dr and ask for low dose antibiotics. They will help clear you up. If you have really bad acne, you may have to use Accutane or something like that, but it's very expensive. I hope you have insurance. Tell your parents it's important to get help now from a dr bc you will end up with scars for the rest of your life if you don't treat them now. Good luck.
Reply:Mary Kay is awesome. there are a lot of products for oily skin. my daughter uses it and it works! go onto www.marykay.com to browse.
Reply:I too have oily skin but at the same time it can get to looking dry too. I have some acne and it also looks like dead cells don't get turned over very fast so yeah my skin never looks that clear either. I hate it too. I wear makeup and it temporarily helps but then I take it off and it's so sad. I want to cry a lot of times. But I recently went to the derrmatologist and he prescribed me a benzol peroxide topical cream and an antibiotic that you take twice a day. My skin has improved. He also said that acne is a genetic thing...not based on diet or bad hygiene. People with acne have sticky cells and most produce more oil on the face than ppl without acne. So the sticky cells don't let the oil through and it gets stuck and inflamed. So what he said to me is to drain your pores. This is soooooooooo gross and believe me I want to cry thinking about having to do this. It's disgusting. But get one of those extractors from the drugstore and just run it over your skin like over 5 areas on your forehead, 5 on each cheek, and five on your chin. You don't have to rub it on your actual pimples just over the area to get some of the excess oil and gunk out. That way you get it out before it has a chance to form an inflamed zit! I don't have many zits but mmy pores aren't that clear and though that definitely helps doing that. It will generally just help reduce the number of pimples you get. I know it sucks. Just know that you didn't ask for it. It's a genetic thing. All you can do is treat it and keep it under control. A few other things he told me is that stress and amount of sleep definitely play a factor. Drink plenty of water..try to avoid caffeine and alcohol as these can aggravate them. Don't smoke. Eat healthy..take vitamins..wash twice a day..with a gentle soap..(because if you use a really harsh soap your skin will just compensate and produce more oil because the soap is drying your skin). You need to keep it balanced. Also he said that if you wear makeup DoN'T use Mary Kay products. He didn't say why..but he must have some way of knowing that they aggravate acne. Also use oil-free everything..wash, moisturizer, and makeup. Hang in there. I know it sucks. But with a little dedication and TLC it WILL gradually improve. If you have health insurance a dermatologist appt can be pretty cheap. And I have had doubts from past experience but this time I have seen some results. Good luck.

Reply:I used to have oily skin and I have always been bothered about it because my face was always shiny and turns red. My friend suggested that I use cetaphil facial wash. It really works. I've been using it for over 2 years now.
Reply:I am all about using natural ingredients and products to put on your face. Here are a few suggestions that are pretty affordable:





Strawberry Mask :


5-6 Mashed Strawberries mixed with 3tsps of honey. Mix well...then apply to face. Leave on face for about 15 to 20 minutes. Helps with acne and leaves skin feeling soft.





Strawberry Cleanser (oily skin)


录 cup pure aloe vera


2 Tbsp. Plain organic yogurt


Three crushed organic strawberries


录 cup Tbsp. Borax





Mix all ingredients well. Massage into skin gently. Rinse off with


lukewarm water





Coco Mask :


4tbsp of coco powder


4tbs of (WHOLE) milk (must be whole or mask will be too runny)





Mix coco powder and whole milk in a bowl and cover your face with it (its fun!, the mask should look like pudding). Leave on your face for 20 minutes. When your time is done use a warm wash cloth to wipe of mask. Then splash face with cold water. Your skin's pores will be a lot smaller, your oil will be gone, bumpy pimples will be less red and silky smooth





or try.....





Apple Mask





1 Medium apple (grated)


5 Tbsp honey





Mix the grated apple and mix with honey to make a mask. Smooth over skin then let sit for 10 minutes, rinse off with cool water.





Hope this helps!!!!!!!!
