Oily skin?

In the morning my face is good, its not too dry, but around mid afternoon my face is oily and I hate that. What can I do to keep it from getting like that. I try not to put lotion on my face becuase that only seems to make it even more oily. If you have any tips or suggestion please let me know.Oily skin?
i always use a good facial pressed powder, but using oil absorbing sheets is useful. you can buy them at pharmacies. Clean and Clear makes one still, I believe. Also, don't just wash with regular soap...get a good facial cleanser/wash that specifies that it is ';oil controlling';. There is one out by Clearasil, which is in a green bottle. also, you can use a salicylic acid cleanser, which is good for oil and pimples. look on the back and should say in the active ingredient section whether the cleanser has it or not. you may think that putting lotion on your face only makes it worse, but it really important to use a facial moisturizer. don't use any body lotions on your face, but use a facial moisturizer. make sure it is oil free. it should also say non comogenic (not sure on the spelling but it's a 'c'word) which means it won't clog your pores or cause more oil. other than that, make sure to wash your face twice a day and use a toner and moisturizer. a toner is what you use after cleansing your face. it's a liquid that you put on a cotton pad and wipe on the face. this helps wipe any residue and dirt off your face. neutrogena has products of all these things. the best thing i have discovered for my oil problems is a good clay mask. look for a mask which says it has Koalin in it. this is a particularly effective clay that absorbs dirt and oil from deep down in the pores. you should use a mask 2-3 times a week and it should really help. i recommend the St Ives firming mask or the Queen Helene's Mint Julep Mask, which you can get at CVS or Walgreens. both are cheap and very affective. hope this helps!! :)Oily skin?
i have the same promblem......... just get some face wash with no oil and get oil control pads from nutragena (((no idea ho to spell that)))! i think there called rapid clear they work really good!
Use alcohol to dry your skin a little.Don't use it everyday because you don't want your skin to get too dry.Or you can use face wash with no oil.Try neutrogena.( I think that's how you spell it)Good luck
Cleanse, Tone, Moisturize. After you cleanse you should tone with something like sea breeze sensitive to remove any impurities. now that your skin is well cleansed you need to replace the natural moisture. If you don't your skin will work extra hard and produce too much oil.
Get an astringent but I know the more you wash it the more oily it gets. IMy skin will get quite oily at times esp. the summer and I know its a tough call.
Oily skin is great. You won't get any wroinkles later on in life.





To reduce the shine, make sure you use products designed for oily skin (soaps, toners and moisturizers). Even though your skin is oily, always use a moisturizer.





Later in the day, when the shine starts, use a tissue of cloth to blot away the oil (if you are a man).





Use Cornsilk powder to reduce the shine (if you are a woman).

this seems to explain a lot
Oily Skin Treatment





When the sebaceous glands in the body produce excess sebum, your skin turns oilier. Due to this skin condition you are most prone to face problems such as acne, whiteheads, blackheads, etc. Therefore due care should be taken on a regular basis to reduce the chances of developing skin diseases.





Daily, mix 1 tablespoon of limejuice with cucumber juice and apply it on the skin surface almost half an hour before having a bath. Your skin may be extremely oily and so mix a few trickles of eau de cologne. By treating the skin in this manner, you are not only removing the excess oil from the skin, but also clearing the pores that are present, thus preventing the development of acne.





If your skin appears oily, then after applying your makeup the light patches usually tend to stay there. But beforehand, if it is rubbed lightly with cucumber juice, and then makeup is applied then you will not face the same problem.
