Answer 1

There are a few options for you, since this is such a big time for you with your wedding coming up and all, you might want to visit a dermatologist and have them prescribe you a topical acne medication, don't get the kind in a pill form because unfortunately it alters your hormones and your skin will get worse before it improves. See if you can get something like Retin-A creme. If going to the dermatologist isn't an option, use a strict facial cleansing regimen, making sure to wash morning and night, and very importantly, keep your hands and your phone clean! since you said your skin is oily and not dry, i would suggest using a mild soap in the morning, such as Purpose, you can buy it at just about any drug store. At night I would try an exfoliant to clean out your pores, and before you go to bed try applying a product that contains Salicylic Acid, which is really good for clearing up acne. As for makeup, there is a really great new brand called Bare Escentuals, it provides great coverup and is all natural, really light and good for your skin, and it contains an SPF15, which is also good. You can buy this at any makeup store, such as Sephora. Also make sure you eat a healthy, balanced diet and take plenty of vitamins.

Well you should have started already!!! Get a move on do not wait until the last minute for stuff like this or you end up hating all the choices you will have. The dress and bridesmaids dresses are the biggest aspect of most weddings then the ceremony and reception area and the cake and flower arrangements. Seriously grab your mom and even future mother in-law one of your bridesmaids and maybe the Maid of Honer and get to a dress shop NOW!!!. Remember one thing let the bridesmaids pick out the dresses they will be wearing if you want them to have a good day as well really most woman do not want to wear sea foam green or a salmon rose dress or something covered in bows. This is your day though so make sure your dress will totally blow their's out of the water. Also schedule a cake tasting for you and your future mate ASAP and get him to start looking at tux rentals. Oops almost forgot hopefully you have booked a church or other place for the services and found a minister or reserved a Justice of the Peace. Then somewhere for reception afterwards and of course catering for the event and then do not forget the flower lady for the Bride's Bouquet, table centres, boutinears for the guys etc. Remember roses are very pricey if your on a budget consider Lilies and Carnations they are gorgeous and also make a beautiful bouquet for the bride with a little influx of babies breath. P.S. Figure out a budget with your fiance and family if they are helping with the costs before stepping out the door. Consider also a easy gown for after the wedding services for something a little more casual for later on in the evening. Also do not forget to get a nice lingerie get up for the big wedding night you man will probably be expecting this like a a boustier, garter belt stockings you know what I mean if you go to a decent lingerie store and ask for the selection of bridal sets they should be able to point you in the right direction. God Bless and Best Wishes. Congratulations.

My skin used to get greasy after an hour or two it was washed, and I would get pimples. Especially when I was stressed (which you will be wedding planning) or when I got my period. I saw all the comercials for Pro-Active and thought it was worth a shot. It is great. The give you a cleanser, toner, mousterizer, and a face mask. I think it is great. Some peple have to use is twice a day, but I got to were I can use it once a day or every other day. My face dosen't get oily anymore. The moisterizer tingels a little bit when you put it on, but just let it soak in...it almost feels like it seals you face so you don't get any grease on your face. Well anyways...just try it.

Answer 4

There are lots of good suggestions above for cleansers, but you should also try blotting papers throught the day to collect the extra oil on your skin, and I really like bare escentuals makeup because it works so well on shine and looks like you're not wearing makeup at all. It gives your complexion a healthy looking glow. You can find all of these products online. There's a great start up kit that has all the products and brushes you need to get going. Good luck with your wedding!

Answer 5

I would say, stop using the Lakme products. If you are in India you will certainly find good ayurvedic products like Dabur and Himalaya. They have great products for the face care. Also when you use ayurvedic products be patience....they work well in about 2- 3 weeks. I am sure this will give you great results. Try the herbal face masks they are very effective. Especially if you can find neem mask (himalaya has one) Use vicco turmeric or Emami naturally fair for about a month you will see results....

Answer 6

I went for a facial at my salon a few months before my wedding to get my skin picture perfect. I would go now and get a consultation at least. This way they can recommend a facial treatment and also some products. They may also recommend a routine between now and your wedding to come in for treatments. Think of it this way, you can help your skin and your stress level at the same time by getting a few treatments between now and the wedding. Good Luck, Congratulations and have a wonderful wedding day!!

Answer 7

It sounds as though your skin is misbehaving and needs to be whipped back into shape. For healthy looking skin, I would suggest that you use products that treat, tone, and cleanse your face--you don't necessarily need moisturizer because you have natural oils already present. I would suggest that you try...

True Porefection Skin Refining Mask
True Porefection Skin Refining Toner
True Porefection Skin Refining Cleanser

All of which are from Avon's dermatologist approved beauty line. Those three items are specifically for oily skin--they also have products for normal and dry skin.

Answer 8

Do not use any products!!!!!
They cause the reaction of your skin! After showering only use a light lotion, do sports and take care of your nutrition (low fat, a lot of fruit and veggies, little sugar and chocolate). That should do the trick!
The more products you use the more reaction will your skin show. Oily skin shows that you use to much, the skin doesn't absorb it anymore.

Answer 9

First congratulations! India, wow. Best thing to do is to check online for a reputable facialist (esthetician) in your area and go to them for a facial to start then have them recommend the products best for your skin type. After working on you they will be familiar with your skin and through their years of experience know the products best for your skin. (lucky you to have oily skin -- you will love it later when you get older and look twenty years younger!)

Answer 10

First of all you have to change from the inside, try not to eat greassy foods, specially fried, second of all drink a lot of water, Stay off the chocolate for two weeks and you'll start to get results. Ok, do they sell clinique in your country? because there are theese rice towels I don't know if you've heard of them http://www.clinique.com/templates/products/sp_nonshaded.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY4919&PRODUCT_ID=PROD9249
they are a good option for emergencys and you can carry it in your purse. Second of all you should try to relax bacause the excess of stress can also cause your skin to react to that. What you have been doing is fine but try to go to a specialist and get a facial, I know it's quite expensive, but it's the only way you can start from zero and make the new changes easier.
