FOR OILY SKIN IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO WASH YOUR FACE SEVERAL TIMES A DAY WITHOUT SOAP. APPLY ASTRINGENT LOTION FREQUENTLY .DON'T EXPOSE YOUR SKIN TO THE SUN. IF IT IS UNAVOIDABLE USE SUNSCREEN LOTION. IN THE MORNING YOU APPLY FACE PACK MADE WITH ALOE VERA, MULTAN MITTI, ROSE WATER,TULASI  POWDER, ROSE PETALS POWDER AND APPLY IT GENTLY ON YOUR FACE AND HANDS FOR 30 MINUTES AND DON'T USE SOAP AFTER WASHING YOUR FACE. IT IS BETTER TO USE MEDICATED SOAPS LIKE MEDIMIX, OR PONDS SOAP WASH. DON'T APPLY OIL EVERY DAY. ALL THE MATERIAL  CAN BE HAD FROM ANY COSMETIC SHOP.YOU CAN USE BASIN POWDER MIXED WITH CURD.

Try an over-the-counter non alcholic product made for adults, containing salicyclic (sp?) acid such as Neutrogena Anti wrinkle anti blemish. \nI am only 29, no wrinkles but really oily skin. It works pretty good for me to absorb the oils without over drying the skin like benzoyl Peroxide would, thus avoiding more breakouts!! I also like Biores products, they have a good clay mask and a warming cleanser (feels good on those cold winter dayz!!) I have struggled with acne for almost 20 years..I sympathize and empathize. It can be a self esteem downer!! If this suggestion doesn't work for you, try and try again. Keep trying until you find something that works for you. Don't give up girl, you are beautiful!!

It is important to keep spot-prone areas clean, so wash the affected area twice a day with an unperfumed cleanser.1,6 The skin needs a certain amount of oil to maintain its natural condition, so avoid aggressive washing with strong soaps.\n\nThere are a number of over-the-counter remedies available from pharmacies to treat mild acne. These usually contain antibacterial agents such as benzoyl peroxide (eg Oxy and Clearasil Max).\n\nAs well as its antibacterial effects, benzoyl peroxide can dry out the skin and encourage it to shed the surface layer of dead skin. Together, these effects make it harder for pores to become blocked and for infection to develop.\n\nBenzoyl peroxide can cause redness and peeling, especially to start with. This tends to settle down if you reduce the number of times you use it. You can then build up your use gradually.7\n\nNo home treatments for acne will work immediately. It can take weeks, if not months, for significant effects to be noticeable. If home treatments have not worked after two months, or you have severe acne, you should visit your GP.7\nPrescription medicines\n\nYour GP may start your treatment by prescribing a preparation containing benzoyl peroxide. If this does not work, or if you have more severe acne, there are a range of other treatment options that you can either rub onto your skin (topical) or take in tablet form (oral).\nTopical treatments\n\nThere are several topical treatments you may be prescribed including those listed below:\n\n    * azelaic acid (Skinoren) is an alternative to benzoyl peroxide and may not make your skin as sore as benzoyl peroxide7\n    * topical retinoids (eg Adapalene) are medicines based on vitamin A, which are rubbed into the skin once or twice a day.7 They work by encouraging the outer layer of skin to flake off\n    * a topical antibiotic lotion applied to the skin can be used to control the P. acnes bacteria (eg Dalacin T). Treatment needs to continue for at least six months. Preparations that combine an antibiotic with other acne medication are available (eg Benzamycin which combines an antibiotic with benzoyl peroxide)7\n\nOral treatments\n\nThere are several oral treatments you may be prescribed including those listed below:\n\n    * oral antibiotics (tablets), such as tetracycline, can be prescribed for inflammatory acne. They should be taken daily for around three months, although it might take four to six months for the benefits to be seen.7 The success of this treatment can be limited because the strains of bacteria are often resistant to the common antibiotics. Antibiotics do not prevent pores from becoming blocked so treatment to prevent blackheads, such as benzoyl peroxide, is often also prescribed at the same time\n    * some types of oral contraceptive tablets help women who have acne. A combination of the usual pill hormone called ethinylestradiol with cyproterone acetate (eg Dianette) suppresses male hormone activity so is often used in women with acne4,7\n    * isotretinoin (eg Roaccutane) is a medicine known as an oral retinoid, which also exists in a topical form (see above). Isotretinoin works by drying up oily secretions. It tends to be prescribed to people with severe forms of acne that have proved resistant to other treatments. There a number of serious side-effects of this drug, such as liver disorders and depresssion.3,7 You should not take isotretinoin if you are pregnant, as it is very dangerous to an unborn baby.7 For safety reasons, isotretinoin is only prescribed under the supervision of dermatology specialists

Go to a dermatologist.\nIf you're looking for things you can try at home, Proactiv works for a lot of people.\nI've also heard very good things about Tea Tree products (the best face wash in the world is from the Body Shop) and also Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne wash.\nAlso... if you have cystic acne, it's not the same as regular acne. It can be caused by something other than bacteria... which is why you want to see a dermatologist, because they can help treat cystic acne.

According to my opinion you have to focus in two fields.\n\n- Basically, keep it clean using good antiseptic products, like soap, lotion, cream and powder that will absorb any oily secretions.I use to buy them in the pharmacy.\nUse a product for peeling,at least once weekly,that will deliberate your skin from dead cells.Use it preferably before going to bed in order to avoid irritations.\nIn the market you can find some products containing fruit acids; they are very effective if you follow the instructions but take care because if the amount is over 7.5% they may cause allergies. \nSome times also a boric acid solution that is the antiseptic used for the cure of eyes can help if buffered after soap and water.\n\n- Then, take care of your lifestyle ie. eating drinking, smoking, sleeping, exercising.I mean light food,more yoghurt, carrots and fruits,brewers yeast as a food supplement can also help,no chocolates, no alcohol, no cigarettes and less stress. I would suggest aerobic; it is very pleasant and relaxing and contributes also in the prevention of other diseases, I would say contributes in aging healthy.\n\n- Visit your doctor and have a test for policystic ovaries; it is a disorder that can cause acne.

try some proactiv or something, i used to have acne like crazy, now i RARELY have zits, and i dont even wash my face (except when i shower, and water falls on my face)

I have oily skin too and i found that mild scrubs worked decent, like apricrot scrubs. MILD!! Don't grate your face. I started using proactiv in January and it has worked great! Only had one or two breakouts since I started and it uses light scrubbing and benzoyl peroxide. So if you want to stay on the cheap side, try something that will scrub. Use it once a day and see how your skin reacts, and then up it to twice a day. And definitely use an astringent/toner, one without alcohol. If you can though I highly recommend proactiv.

proactive is good, but expensive. just find a nice cleanser that is oil free and uses 2% sacylic acid to treat acne. be sure to wash every day and use an acne treatment gel.  hope that helps

use tea tree oil. I used to have major breakouts but since I used tea tree oil every time I have a pimple. It dries it and doesn't leave a mark. But if your having major acne try going to a health store and ask if they have supplements to clear acne. It's expensive but worth it. But if you are on a budget you have to undergo a major diet and eliminate/minimize food that causes acne. And always drink lots of liquids (water and fresh juice) everyday for proper circulation

You probably have oily skin. They're called pores. Use oil free makeup and moisturizers. and wash your face twice a day. See a dermatologist if you start getting pimples.

Wash face, use toner, use all-over treatment, use spot-treatment; respectively. Twice a day. If it is moderate or worse (not mild) then go to a dermatologist who will give you pills. And don't touch your face ever

How to fight oily skin\n\nWash your face two or three times a day with a mild cleanser that does not include perfumes or additives. Keep your skin very clean, but do not scrub too hard. \n\nUse an oil-free moisturizer and cosmetics. \n\nUse a clay-based face mask two or three times a week. \n\nChoose products containing alpha-hydroxy acids, which remove dead cells and give skin a smoother appearance. \n\nMash up a small amount of papaya for your own fruit acid mask. Smear it on your skin, leave it on for 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse. \n\nSteam your skin several times a week. Add chamomile, lavender oil or dried herbs such as rosemary, parsley or thyme to the water. \n\nKeep your skin hydrated by drinking at least eight glasses of water a day. \n\nReduce fats and oils in your diet. Increase your intake of fresh vegetables, fruits and whole grains. \n\nWatch your sun exposure. Although the sun may seem to dry your skin, too much heat actually stimulates the production of more oil. \n\n\nSupplement your diet with B-complex vitamins, vitamin A, vitamin C, zinc and vitamin E. You can also take a high-potency multivitamin.  Fish oil or flax seed oil to get your EFA's.\n\nTips & Warnings \n\nMake your own facial scrub by mixing 2 tbsp. almond meal with 1 tbsp. ground lemon rind and 1 tbsp. powdered milk. \n\nMake your own clay mask by mixing green clay powder with water or honey and applying it to your face. Leave it on for 15 minutes and then rinse. \n\nHumidity and heat will increase oil production.
