I have very oily skin and I have tried clear and clearsil, clean and clear, St. Ives, netrugena products, and water but they dont seem to work well. I want to get rid of my oily skin forever! I know its good to have oily skin because it prevents from having wrinkles at a early age, but I dont want it.
Whats the best way? No rubbing acholcol for me.....I mean, whats the best way to get rid of oily skin the whole entrie day. I also used oil absort sheets before and it seemd to work well but then....30 mintures later, its just comes back.

Hi, Wash your face many times a day. Just like washing your hair often reduces the oil in your hair, so does washing your face often. Keeping the oil from your hair also helps. One thing I do know is as you age your skin becomes dry instead of oily. Good Luck!

Change your diet. Stay away from oily and fatty foods. Eat more citrus like grapefruit. The ruby's are good. Work out, continue as you perspire.
Use steam cleansing once or twice a day by putting your head over a pot of just boiled water with a towel over your head, surrounding the pot also. Let your skin perspire.
Stay there for 15 mins or so. Rinse face and neck with cold water. An astringent afterward is ok and moisturize sparsely.
Do not use moisturizers that are creams but lotions, for oily skin, ok. I used to have very oily skin when I was younger. I think it was my harmones going through a stage. I still have oily to normal skin now.

Age, diet, and stress are factor that can change your skin. That being said, there isn't a skin cleansing regiment that will eliminate oily skin. You could try using a cleanser and moisturizer that is specifically for oily skin; it will not have as much oil as whatever cleanser you are currently using. Therefore, your shine problem will be under more control. L'Oreal has a great cosmetic line maybe you should give it a try

You may as well learn to live with your oily skin and it does keep you looking younger. People think I am in my twenties but I am 42.
Just wash your face often during the day.

I would try Neutrogena Mineral Sheers it is the mineral makeup that is similar to the makeup on tv but 1/3 of the price it really helps with oily skin. but it isn't the best coverage but it will take care of the oil.

Use an alcohol based toner on your skin. If you use make-up, use ones that are for oily skin. Stay away from greasy foods.

You may just have to deal with it. It's a natural condition. I would suggest just to wash your face more frequently with a mild estringent.
