How can I reduce the amount of oil on my face?(please help!)?

Question

I have EXTREMELY oily skin and it gets really frustrating.

I have oil blotting sheets, cleansers that cater to oily skin...just about everything. But it seriously won't work. My skin gets oily about every 20 minutes. I have to constantly blot my face so that the oil doesan't build up and cause breakouts. I really don't think the cleansers and such are working for my skin, so I was wondering if there are any foods that can reduce the amount of oil on face. I drink ONLY water so, I yea..that won't help me either. I need any other tips...My skin is breaking out and I know it's because of all that disgusting oil!

Answer 1

hmmmm... Are you a teenager? Because it sounds like you are just experiencing puberty. In my opinion, use soap and water when you wash, and don't use any other products. I actually use something called Nivea Visage Young, it's a collection of products that can prevent oily skin, as well as preventing spots and blackheads. There are lots of different products in this collection that will suit your nedd.

Answer 2

Have you tried using oil-reducing toner?  Like 10-0-6, from Bonnie Bell?  I use it in the morning and at night and it really helps keep my skin clear and less oily.  

Answer 3

i have oily skin and use clean and clear cream cleanser in the PURPLE tube... that one is for extra oily skin and it actually makes my skin flaky and dry but for someone with skin as you describe it might work.
