Greasy skin... any ideas to dry it out?!?

My skin's become really greasy lately, so I've stopped using toner as I heard it can make the skin produce more sebum (grease), and I've changed to a moisturiser for oily skin, and have started using a daily scrub designed for oily + blemished skin.


I've been on this routine for about 2 weeks now, but there seems to be no improvement, my skin is still like an oil slick, esp towards the end of the day.





Does anyone have any ideas/tips/particular toiletries or remedies they can recommend to help clear it up or at least calm it down?!


(Also does anyone know why skin can suddenly become greasy with no change to cosmetics/toiletries etc?)





Thanks all, and have a good day ^.^

maybe its the products you are using, which are making your skin all greasy. I suggest you should go for organic, natural stuff like body butter you can buy at the BODY SHOP which comes in many varity of fruit and flavours which are healthy for your skin???

dont take your showers or baths to hot! this will also make your hair shinyer if you cool it down a bit,





when you done showering, end it of with as cold as you can take! its not very nice, but it certainly helps!





Good Luck!
Reply:try clearisil ultra face wash, then clean n clear astringent(it looks like a blue liquid), then put clearsil acne treatment cream on your pimples(if u have any). this really works!!! do this twice a day!
Reply:i would recommend a mild bar of soap that you can buy in the supermarket like asda, tesco's etc. try to find one which has aloe Vera in it and says helps to heal the skin as i got one in sainsbury's and it was only about 34p i know it sounds cheap and nasty but its really kind on my face and it makes my skin look really good as it isn't greasy or dry it seems just right good luck Hun. x plus using this kind of product is better for you as there aren't any harmful chemicals in it which can dry out your skin etc.
Reply:wash your face with estee lauder fash wash for oily skin and use oil absorbing sheets whenever you need a touch up. good luck.

I use proactiv, and i have been told by lots of acne/oily skin sufferers that it helps them with drying out the oilyness of their skin
