Sometimes it can be stress etc that causes
it, i dont really have a problem with it ,
i used to , I use that st ives medicated
face scrub but the thing is it kinda dries
out your skin so i would use a moisturizer
like ponds or something. Maybe u can find
one with the sacylic (sp) acid in it. to
help prevent breakouts.

well i've had oily skin for as long as i
can remember & i'm 18 now. i wear
makeup pretty much everyday, & the
trick that i've been using is actually
pretty simple to keep my skin from oiling
up throughout the day. after i put my
makeup on, i put a little baby powder over
my foundation to sorta "set" it. it helps
my makeup to stay put & my skin from
getting all oily & gross feeling. you
don't have to use a bunch of it, & be
sure you aren't left with white streaks
from not putting it on evenly. it works
like a charm for me, & it's healthy
for your skin as well.
xoxo

do you use moisturizer? because sometimes
if you don t it causes your skin to be
oily.

well i sometimes use a moisteriser. i
always thought that that was what was
making my skin that way so i stopped using
it(dumb i know). and my face gets so dry i
hate it. but i feel like if i use a lotion
my face breaks out or will get even more
oily.
its so frustrating i'm 19 and i can't
figure this out!!

my skin is the exact same way- but just
try the baby powder trick. if you wanted
to, put on moisturizer beforehand.

I used to have oily skin but I've found a
way to keep it under control and clear up
my spots, by using a multivitamin skincare
line. I don't think I'm allowed to say
more here so if you are interested in
finding out more, please send me a private
message.
