My face feels just so oily all the time. I wash my face in the morning, and before I go to bed, and when I take a shower. But during the day it just feels so oily and gross so I wash it again. I'm 11 yrs old, in case you need to know. Plz help!
And I don't wear makeup.

Well, I don't have acne or pimples.

Welcome to puberty. Here is a little tip for you to control the oil. Take a toilet seat cover for your personal use, but tear off that middle part and then just blot (press against) your skin with it. It really soaks up the oil. When you wear makeup, it still works and does not disturb the makeup.
Note: It would be better if you took the first cover off and disposed of it, and then used the next one because there could be airborne germs on the first one.

I have an oily face/ nose and am prone to blackheads. You need to wash with an antibacterial soap. Dial Antibacterial soap works very good for me. Oil hates the antibacterial agent in Dial. Trust me; this will help more than any other advice. I also use Cuticura facial soap. It also has an antibacterial agent. It's tough to find in stores so I order it online. It does a great job keeping oil off a face.

It's called the onset of puberty! It SUCKS, I know, believe me I've been there. I was the only kid in class with acne at your age, my skin was a mess because of all the hormones rushing around everywhere.
Just keep your skin clean, use a gentle facial soap twice a day and keep avoiding makeup. Your hormones will settle down soon, and all your classmates will be in the same boat:)

when your going throught puberty your face ussualy get oily, ask your mom to get you some noxema, clean & clear, or cleirisal, they will help, make sure you wash your face with products made for faces, if you use something else, it might add oils, or dry it out to much, if you dont use anything, it will leave those oils on and you dont want that, you might get pimples, its all part of life, but if you use one of the products i showes you, your face will be clean in no time!

It feel oily cuz it is oily. Use Proactive oily face control toner or lotion in the morning after you wash your face. It will minimize oily face.

that may be your skin type and is the onset of puberty. congrats! you should carry oil straps or use a certain facewash meant for oily skin. if your face is still oily then i reccomend going to a dermatologist. i hope my advice works
