How to keep greasy skin at bay

Love oily skin! Ages so slowly comparing to other skin types have noticed. Trying to keep mine producing stuff for as long as possible hehe

Great information, I have dry skin.

helped me soo much, thank you!

I have tried omnilux but the treatments initially are very expensive. Great at home tips, will have to keep a look out for these ingredients.

Some very good recommendations. I used to have oily skin but then the hormones hit me again and now Im all over the place!

My skin still gets a little oily, a good toner and makeup setting spray do help

Great article about oily skin! I definitely have oily skin everyday. For me, diet plays a major role. The minute i start eating sugary or oily food, my skin would go out of wack.

Awesome article. I find that the Aspect Purastat Cleanser to be very oil-balancing for my oily skin T zone. It's a weird name but it works.

My skin's a bit on the dry side, so this info doesn't really apply to me, but a good article for those with oiler skin.

Thanks for this great article!!!! I never realised my enlarged pores could be contributing to my oily skin.. I’ve battled with oily skin my whole life and am now informed on what ingredients and products to use.

I only wish my skin produced some of it's own natural oils! I've always had dry skin and have to apply so many products and oils to get it to feel good. Maybe oily skinned girls hate their oil but they always look younger!

I've never had oily skin.

Even for dry skin AHA cleansers are awesome - helps to clear old skin!

thankfully this is not a problem for me

What a great article! Nothing I have tried so far has worked, come lunch time - even before my face is always shiny! Will have to try some of the above and see if there is a difference..

I find oiliness equals blackheads, so exfoliation is vital! I like a good scrub, but cleansing brushes are good too. Facial oil (rosehip) has also helped me.

My skin is parched nowadays. I dont miss the management of oily skin but I do miss the youthfulness it gave me.

I don't have oily skin now, and even as a teenager I only had a slightly oily T-zone.

A mattyfting sunscreen, good primer and pressed powder keep the oil at bay. If it's not a full face, just rock the shine and blot throughout.

I'm lucky enough not to have this problem... But some great tips to try here if I ever do...

It's been a while since I've had really oily skin. I remember my teens whenI'd just touch my forehead and my fingers would be all shiny from greasy oily skin.

Good tips and product recs, thank you bh! There's a lot of frustrating trial and error with my combination skin.

I'm still a fan of blotting papers, which are sufficient for me as oiliness/greasiness is not a huge issue for me, but rather an occasional, often seasonal occurance.

Glycolic acid is great for exfoliating the skin and I use a vitamin A cream at night as well which helps with my oily skin

In high school, my skin used to be quite oily and sometimes shiny. Ever since I got into uni (this is my second year), my skin became more on the dry side. Huh.
