Use a cleanser and moisturizer that's specifically for oily skin. Mary Kay's Velocity is great! If you get oily throughout the day try Oil Mattifier and/or Beauty Blotters, too.

A little known fact is that your skin is oily because it is actually dry. I know, I didn't want to hear that for years either... I kept saying no, my skin is oily not dry, duh. But, then I decided to give the advice one solid try. When I get out of the shower I apply a good moisturizing lotion and then my skin is way less oily because it isn't having to make oil to keep my skin hydrated. I use Suave Advanced Therapy Lotion and I think it works well... I also don't get pimples so much since I started this. Best wishes

Instead of applying powder in your face, try water-based foundation. It has no oil content, I am using Maybeline water-based foundation and it suit my oily face just fine. It has different tones and you can choose one that match your skin tone And dont use soap in washing your face, use oil control facial wash. Try mild facial wash so it wont irritate if you have sensitive skin. I hope I answered your question. Be cool okay? Good thing about oily skin though? They dont get wrinkles easily (wink*wink*).

Go to your local drugstore and go to the facial cleansers area. Look for facial cleansers that are specifically for oily skin. So you don't ruin your makeup you can also buy blotting papers (http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P59224&categoryId=B70...that's the expensive version) to blot oil and not smudge makeup.

Try "Aura Science" from Victoria's secret. There is three different chemicals. The first phase is soap, then a toner, then lotion. They are so good. Try them out.
