My skin is really oily can anyone help?

Question

I wash my face twice a day and use 4 different acne medications on it, so my skin is clear, but it is super shiny! I have used a few different foundations and powders but it seems like no matter how much they claim that they stay matte all day long, my skin looks shiny in a few hours, or even just after I put it on. (ex. right after I put on bare minerals I took a pic and someone commented that my skin looked oily. ex2. I used to use a foundation and powder called double matte, and i had to reapply every few hours)

DOES ANYONE KNOW OF ANY FOUNDATIONS POWDERS OR FACE PRIMERS THAT KEEP YOU SHINE FREE ALL DAY????

Answer 1

maybelline mineral power  powder, not foundation  it works!

Answer 2

dont use so many acne medications

Answer 3

You are over-cleansing your face and your pores are freaking out trying to replace all of the natural oils you are washing away.  Use less acne meds, a light moisturizer, and a gentle exfoliating cleanser once a day.. Once your skin relaxes a little your natural oil production will scale down and it will be much calmer. Also try using oil blotting papers from MAC, they remove oil but not makeup.  Good Luck.

Answer 4

yes! change your shampoo!

make sure your shampoo or conditioner doesn't have oil in it, because your hair touches your face, clogging your pores.

go to your local grocery store and get shampoo and conditioner without oil in the ingredients.

also check your shaving cream for oil, if you use it.

buy products without oil! it's the simplest solution.

:) good luck!

Answer 5

Maybe try getting a primer and an oil control moisturizer. Try not being so harsh on your face either.
