oKAY i HAVE REALLY OILY SKIN!! wHAT CAN i USE THAT WILL FOR SURE MAKE IT GO AWAY??

Cleanse, tone, moisturize. Use soaps with glycolic acid, this will control facial oil without causing dryness. Wash face twice a day with hot water and glycolic acid soap, hot water absorbs oil better than cold or warm water. Ask your pharmacist for available over-the-counter glycolic soap.

Use a toner with salicylic acid, this will remove and prevent blackhead formation caused by excessive oil build up. It will also help control the oil. Apply at night.

Use a light moisturizer, preferably in a gel form. Even when skin is oily, you still need to moisturize to prevent over-dryness.

i have been struggling with my skin since 4th grade and its still not that great. How do I have flawless skin?

PS: Soon!

I was totally in your position. I had really bad skin since about the sixth grade right up through my senior year in high school. Whenever I complained about it my doctor would say it was a teenage thing, not a big deal and I’d grow out of it. Finally, before I went to college, I went to a dermatologist who prescribed some helpful drugs that cleared my skin right up!

If you’ve had bad skin for awhile and over the counter products aren’t working then go to a dermatologist. They really can work wonders.

Hope this helps.

Ever since grade five, i’ve had massive skin trouble. Just one thing after another. It’s a lot better these days, but still irritating beyond belief.
So heres my list of issues:

- My skin peels on my nose
- VERY noticeable blackheads on m nose, cheeks, and between my eyebrows
- occasional pimple or two under my nose (but they literally take months to go away)

i currently use or have tried:

- oxy pads (use)
- neutrogena moisturizer (use; not moisturizing enough)
- revlon blackhead extractor (used; piece of crap, really)
- beauti control: all clear toner (use)
- biore strips (used; gets almost nothing out)

aaaand nothing has truly worked so far.

my biggest concern is my blackheads at the time being, so HELP?!
products, anything? they’re very deep, and some i just cant get out for the life of me.
i know about the steam technique and that didnt work for me either

IM DESPERATE

ever since i had my baby 18 months ago, my skin gets sooo oily, how can i stop it? mary kay is not working..

A good product you can use is Neutrogenas oil controlling toner. You also want to make sure that you are not drying out your face too much, because you will produce more oil in your face so make sure you follow it up with a moisturizer.

do i use a face wash, cleanser, toner
or a scrub, cleaner, toner
etc.
any other tips appreciated too! ;D

i have a great clean routine that really worked for me, try this
Before you go to bed, and right when you wake up
Wash your face with warm water
Cleanse your face, Neautrogena Oil-FreeAcne wash works really well for me
Next, dab your face dry with a washcloth
(optional, and if you do, do this step only once or twice a week): apply a scrub, i find that st.ives apricot scrub is really nice and refreshing.
Next, for oily skin, apply a light layer of toner, neautrogena alcohol-free toner works nicely
and lastly, apply a thin layer of mosturizer even if you have oily skin, i like ponds dry skin cream
and vwalaa, try not to pick at blemises, or wash your face more then twice a day
this realy worked for me!
hope this helps
