i have a really oily face especially on my nose and forehead, so whenever i have my bangs down they get all oily and wet from my forehead

is there any type of lotion or sunblock or soap that keeps my face from being oily? (link)
One of my good friends has Very oily skin and uses those oil absorbing sheets, but they are honestly crap. It gets rid of oil once it's already there...kind of. And by then it's too late, your bangs are already greesy and wet.

My friend now pretty much just makes sure wash her face with soap and warm water. Hot water works as a solvent on the excess oils on your skin and a strong soap with drying action will help cleanse away added dirt and grime, as well as dry out the oils. Something as simple as Dial soap will do the job, or you can look for even stronger soaps designed specifically for oil-removal, like Clearasil, Neutrogena, and Cetaphil brands

Also, try using oil-free make-up to prevent and get rid of your oily skin. Don't use a lot of liquid-based foundation, concealer, blush, or eye-shadow. Choose powder-based products, or products containing acne medication, instead. These will work to dry up excess oil and treat your pores at the same time.

I found most of this information on google, I hope it is helpful.
