no more bc = super oily face!! and skin problems! help!

I have weird combo- dry and oily skin but now is more on oily. I have found that Cliniques 3-step process works for me. I use the cleansing soap and the second exfoliating step. I skip mousturiezer most days because I end up greasy. The second step is like an astringent and leaves my skin feeling amazingly clean. When i run out of the Clinique cleansing wash, i use Clean and Clear advantage wash. Both of those have left my skin clearer than ever.

To help keep oil at bay- get some of the oil sheets- I know Sephore sells a pack of 100 for $10. Blot throughout the day to keep from looking shiny.

Just and F.Y.I. instead of oil sheets you can go to the hair store and a huge box of hair roller wrap papers for like $3-$4 bucks.

Great tips ladies. I suffer from horrible skin... I will be trying some of these!

Olive oil huh? I feel as though I'd wake up like a grease ball! Thanks ladies

I use murad! its amazing!

Thats what i thought about the olive oil haha that i would just be full of grease. and the clean and clear doest work for me it doesnt do anything from what i have noticed :-( but thanks ladies for all these tips

I was afraid of the grease ball thing with olive oil. The first few minutes you will be greasy but it doesn't stay that way. Your skin will absorb it and will feel soft. In fact, if I put regular moisturizer on before bed, I wake up greasy faced. If I put olive oil on before bed, I wake up without greasy face, just a soft smooth face.

If you are looking for a scrub, I do like Queen Helene's Oatmeal N' Honey face scrub. I am somewhat a beauty product junkie. Some girls like shoes, I like makeup and skin care.

If you ever want to read reviews on beauty products before you buy. Anything from mascara, perfume, olive oil, face wash, to a Chi hair straightner please check out Makeupalley.com there are reviews from real women on all things beauty related. It's a fun site. I have found my holy grail mascaras and beauty tips from that site.

I second the oatmeal and honey scrub. Although I do love my olive and coconut oil, grapeseed tends to absorb better for me.

I use the clinque acne system and i LOVE it. my skin is way better than it used to be. i use the acne cleansing bar they have and it is AWESOME. great later, removes make-up, leaves your face feeling clean. i was hesitant to spend $14 on a bar of soap, but i kid you not i use it twice a day, every day, and the bars last me for 6 months! as long as you let them dry out and keep them in the nice case they come in.

the system also has a toner and a "moisturizer". the moisturizer is actually a benzoyl peroxide cream and i find it really helps stop breakouts, but despite being called a moisturizer, it can actually be pretty drying if you use it a lot, so i tend to do it once a day, or every other day.
