All my life, I've had pretty clear skin. I never had severe acne or anything like that. However, I have an oily and pimple-prone T-zone: my forehead (between my eyebrows especially) and around my nose. I use an acne-control medicine (even though I just have the occasional zit) to keep that part of my face oil-free. Currently, it looks great and there are no pimples anywhere on my face. I'm really sorry this is gross, but although my face is oil-free and pimple-free now, there are these little bumps (NOT pimples or pimples to be) on my forehead. They don't hurt and they're just skin color (not red / pink / white). It's not necessary for me to go to the doctor, so please do not suggest that, but does anyone know why this is happening and / or how to make the skin on my forehead flat and smooth without being oily?

It's probably acne caused by your hair touching your forehead. Perfectly normal.

Here's a link to a question I've answered before about acne that might really help you out; I'd rather not copy the entire answer, but just know that it's from Advicenators:
