Answer 1

no matter how oily your skin is you should still be using a moisturizer. if you had been wearing one to begin with, you wouldn't be so badly tanned. get yourself a moisturizer containing sunscreen designed for oily skin. the only thing you'll get by coming up with excuses is a badly burned......
nevermind, you're way ahead of me.

Answer 2

Swab the decks, matey. Skin-care companies have come up with nifty foil-wrapped packets of alcohol-saturated wipes for oily skin. They're similar to the larger wipes that women with children often carry for tidying up kids away from home. The smaller facial wipes are easy to tuck into your handbag or briefcase. Then, when you notice that your nose is shiny with oil, you can peel a packet apart in a bathroom and wipe the oil from your face. The alcohol cuts through the oil and dries up your skin. They smell nice and refreshing and they're very convenient. Look for Tyrosum wipes, among other brands, in major drugstores, or ask your pharmacist to order them.

Wash with care. If you have oily skin, you may be tempted to scrub that oil away every chance you get. But washing your face too much--more than three times a day--may stimulate your skin to produce more oil. Every skin pore is a little oil factory, and your skin knows how much is produced--as if it had a little dipstick. So if you constantly remove that oil, your skin says, 'Oops! Not enough oil. Better make some more.'

Hard scrubbing and rubbing stirs up the oil glands, too, so be gentle. And if you have oily skin, avoid superfatted soaps (intended to moisturize as they clean) like Dove and Tone--your skin doesn't need any added oil. Antibacterial soaps (like Dial and antibacterial Lever 2000) are helpful. That's because oily skin has a tendency to clog the pores and foster bacterial growth.

Rely on witch hazel. Among dermatologists witch hazel is a popular astringent. Don't let the name fool you. Witch hazel is mild and doesn't have a lot of added ingredients. It's always best to keep skin-care products as simple as possible--use the purest products. And be wary of natural products containing essential oils (extracts of herbs used in aromatherapy and massage)--some people are allergic to them.

Go powder your nose. Talcum powder, whether it's formulated for the body or if it's loose face powder, is oil-free. What's more, talc blots the oil on your skin. People with oily skin need a little powder after they bathe and when they apply makeup.

Apply loose face powder after applying foundation. Pressed powder is not recommended, because it contains some oil and may make acne worse in susceptible women.

Answer 3

better start sweetie...bcz getting skin cancer on your FACE is NOT your idea (or mine) of a dream come true. The doctor say's 'use this 3 x a day & DON'T get any on your normal skin!...bcz it eats away at any cell you get it on!---AND don't cover it'...so I use it...and go uncovered and it starts blistering, and I SWEAR everyone is LOOKING at my nose...so, I won't go out for 2 MONTHS. (it has to eat the roots of Malenoma!---& the roots go DEEP).
See...this isn't any fun. Better find something with a spf of at LEAST 35 for your face...and put it on right after washing...so it gets in your pores BEFORE you add anything else. There's stuff out there that's non-oily...if not pretty liquid. Go to the Clinique counter at your big high-end department store and ask one of those clinicians.

Answer 4

Stay out of the sun and away from tanning products., when you're thirty two your skin will look like beef jerky and look twenty years older than you are.

Answer 5

go for glycolic skin treatment.
