nope…just say “IM SHINY AND PROUD” just kidding…uhhh cant you use like…foundation or something? on a personal note* the only reason why I use foundation is because I get hot really really easy and tend to get all reddish around my cheek area…and its freakin embarrassing…so I just…yeah… maybe it can work for you? hmmm then again I dunno…

I have a similar problem, I’ve found this works best for me.

I used Witch daily facial scrub every morning and night. At night I apply Witch Stick, to any blemishes etc. After cleansing I ALWAY moisturises, however, I use a moisturiser called Nivea Young, which is formulated for oily skin, it absorbs oil and prevents excess creation of oil through the day.

if your wearing foundation then be sure to use a mouse or powder foundation. NEVER liquid, this will only add the build up of shine. I use a brand called No. 17 Mouse to Powder. It may also help if you use a neutral oil control powder over your make up (this can be applied whenever needed), I used No. 17 Oil Control Pressed Powder.

I find this combats all shine, and I dont really get oily at all.

Answer #4

Answer #5

Answer #6

Answer #7

okay what you are talking about is called the “t-zone,” which is the oil-prone skin down your nose and across your forehead (if you think about it, it looks like a T, hence the name). what you can do is, after you wash your face, apply a toner or witch hazel to these parts. it helps in keeping the oil minimal. you can get toner, or witch hazel pretty much anywhere, if you’re not sure what it looks like just ask one of the store workers to get some for you.

Answer #8

Drink plenty of water. It will help remove excess oils and prevent your skin from oily and dull. Also, I use MIDO cotton towelette which not only removes the oils, but also removes the damaged and dead cells. Use of an oil free moisturizer may even help as it will keep the skin hydrated. I have been using Dermasome Hydrate which has really worked well for me.
