What is the best products for oily skin? Make up and cleanser, astringents?

If you use astringents and toners they dry out your face and then your skin can produce more oils to make you break out.


Wash your face no more than 2x a day with a gentle cleanser than moisturize (I love Clinique dramatically different moisturizer) Exfoliate and tone no more than 3x a week. I use apricot scrub and witch hazelWhat is the best products for oily skin? Make up and cleanser, astringents?
for oily skin, make sure to use a good cleanser, toner and moisturizer. ones that worked for me are:





merle norman normal/oily foaming cleanser $19, aha normal/oily toner $14





and





avon anew retroactive+ 2in1 cleanser and toner $12





toners work to remove any cleanser residue and refine pores. you should also think about a moisturizer made for oily skin. while you may think you do not need one because your skin is oily, remember that moisturizers adds water that is essential to your skin's health.. it does not add oils. and when using products for oily skin, it is necessary that you add water through moisturizer so that the drying ingredients in the cleanser and toner do not ';overcorrect'; your skin and dry it out too much, which can then lead to increased oil production and acne.





for makeup, here are a few options that have worked for my oily skin even in the hot florida summers:





merle norman lasting foundation $26


avon perfect wear extralasting foundation $10


mark powder buff natural skin foundation $8


revlon colorstyfor oily skin foundation $10





and to reduce oil through the day, use blotting papers like clean and clear oil absorbing sheets $5, rather than putting on more powder, which can get cakeyWhat is the best products for oily skin? Make up and cleanser, astringents?
i use Witch Hazel as my astringent. it stinks, but it wipes off the oil. and Clean %26amp; Clear oil blotting papers really helps a lot in wiping off excess oil over make-up
I like to use Stridex! it really gets off your makeup really well!





*hope i helped
for a cleanser...Cetaphil cleanser for oily skin (green label), cetaphil is made by a company which also produces over the counter acne medication. Try not washing your face so much a day, it strips the skin of its natural oils making your skin produce even more oil,try to stick to 2ce a day morning and night. Be careful about astringents,they strip away a lot causing your body to produce more oils.And skip the moisturizing part unless your skin gets dry too, people with oily skin do not need moisturizer on their face it already produces it on its own.
It maybe a good idea to see a dermatologist or just go to some beauty salons to see a therapist and have a facial to see whether or not your skin is really the oily type or whether its just dehydrated and therefore producing too much oil as a result.





Try not to use products that are too harsh like the clinique moisturisers for oily skin. Though, if you have really oily skin it does reduce shine more than normal thicker heavier moisturisers. A good product is the kind of powdery textured matifying creams that you can buy from lancome/clinique (many brands make this type) that you can use on top of your make up, or by mid day on your skin to reduce shine.





I have a problem with oily skin too but I find that going for hydrating facials really help, and also drinking plenty of water. Good luck!
bare minerals make up is good for oily skin


also i use avacado scrub to wash my face
