It especially gets bad at scool and I just need some tips or ideas to get the oil off. I bought this seaweed stuff thats supposed to make the oil go away and at school I go to the bathroom at lunch and blot my face with toilet paper.

Don't you just hate that? I have the same problem. Usually what I do is blot with a paper towel. Not toilet paper because toilet paper usually has a bunch of that "lint" stuff on it and I think it's disgusting. 'Cause when you go wash your face, you'll start to see the lint on your face when you dry off with a towel. But if you really want to reduce oiliness, I think the best solution would be to go to a dermatologist or do some online research for natural remedies for oily skin. Good luck.

Well join the club. Oily skin has always been one of my biggest problems (especially in pictures). I would try a Bath & Body Works product. It is a pack of sheets (a thin paper), they come in a small booklet type pack. You just tear one off and wipe down your face and BOOM the shine is gone LOL. Facial scrubs or cleansers have never lasted more than an hour for me. So if your problem is as bad as mine I would try this product. Oh yeah, I have also seem them at certain drug stores in the cosmectics aisle. GOOD LUCK!

I have the same problem! I use Clean and Clear oil sheets while I'm at work. They come in a blue package and work great for soaking up oil. The all time solution is to avoid greasy foods and don't wear a lot of makeup. If you do decide to use foundation or powder, use a oil free base that won't clog your pores.

try seeing a dermontologist if the problem is really bad, but if it were me i would try buying an astringent by johnson and johnson. You can find astringent at Wal mart or Wal greens

If you don't mind spending a little extra money, 'Avene' brand makes a great anti shine toner. (Avene Cleanance Lotion Purifying Anti-shine)
