Almost 30 years old and I still have super oily skin, so I've tried them all. I didn't like the clean and clear advantage stuff, it didn't seem to get all the oil off my face and my face still felt dirty afterwards.

I alternate between Neutrogena face wash (their original orange liquid stuff) and St. Ives Apricot Scrub that is medicated with salycilic acid. The "scrub," not the "cleanser." Two different things. I prefer the scrub to exfoliate. I just bought the St. Ives stuff today and they have changed packages, so look for the one that says it has 5% salycilic acid near the bottom of the tube.

Just alternate between the two, using one the first day and the other on the second day. After a little while, you will figure out when to use which one by how your skin feels.

Other than that, the best thing you can do is find an oil-free moisturizer that you like. I really can't recommend one because they stopped making the one I like and I'm shopping around right now. Your skin will get oilier when it thinks it is dehydrated. Seems strange, I know, but you actually have to hydrate your skin to keep it from producing so much oil. Once you start moisturizing, you will see a remarkable difference in the amount of oil on your face.
