Stop the Oil Slicks
So I inherited the lovely gene of oily skin from my dad and with it being summer its gotten even worse. There hasn't been a morning where there isn't a swimming pool of oil on my face. I read in Allure magazine that there are lotions and such you can put on your face to prevent lots of oil coming out of your skin. I don't recall it giving any product names so I was hoping you guys can recommend some good anti-oil face washes and/or cremes that work well for really oily skin.
Thanks!

ahh i dont know of any washes or creams. but i use these oil absorbing sheets by clean and clear, you just use them on your face every morning while your getting ready, and it turns like a different color showing its taking the oil off your skin. hope that helps your problem? :]

I've read somewhere that the reason skin produces oil is to keep skin hydrated: it's like a moisturizer. The reason some people's skin is oily is because it is dry, and their skin secretes the oil to try and hydrate it.
How to prevent it? Try using a facial moisturizer, preferably unscented, everyday, especially after you wash your face. That way you're using facial moisturizers that won't make your skin looking greasy, instead of having all those oils on your skin.
If it doesn't go away in a week, definitely go to the dermatologist.

I recommend going to a dermatologist if you don't find anything that will work. They will give you the right stuff for your face. Oh and theres these clean and clear sheets that you could take to school or where ever to whip off the oil on your face.

you should so try Clean & Clear Morning Burst Shine Control Cleanser. i use this in the morning, and it works wonders for me. it's also OIL FREE which is a good thing, and maybe you should also try blotting sheets. sometime during the day whenever you feel you are really oily, use a blotting sheet to blot your t-zones.
hope i helpedd! =]

My skin is pretty oily so what I do every night before I go to bed and every morning when I wake up is I wash my face and then rub baby powder on it. It not only gets rid of the unnecessary oils but it also makes your skin really soft. Try it and I hope it works for you. :)
