Answer 1

You should wash your face in a face wash with salicylic acid in it. I think Phisoderm is a good one.
If you must moisturize, you should use cetaphil over the counter.
I strongly believe you should not use olay. Its intended for dry skin, not acne prone skin.

Answer 2

The best thing to do for oily skin, is to spray it or apply a water based lotion -- not an oil based one! The oil based lotion will just make your skin incredibly oily. The problem that is causing the oil, and I know because I had a HUGE ISSUE WITH IT IN THE PAST, is your skin is parched and is trying to wet or oil itself. The only way to stop that is to hydrate it. Murad had a great water based product, and you can also get nutrogena, etc. -- make sure it is non oily and the first ingredient is water. Some even have spray on nutrition. Also take B5 daily, which helps oily skin. You don't want to try and dry out your skin or you will get wrinkly, you just want to help your skin hydrate so it doesnt have to express the oil to do so. It works, I used to have an oily face and now its not oily or dry at all. And these same treatments keep down the breakouts, since all that oil and grease on your face clogs pores and causes acne. Good luck!!

Olay may or may not help your pimple problem. Oil in the pours is usually the culprit of pimples.

Try proactive for help with them.
