Greasy Skin [+rep]

[Jaiisun]

Hey guys,
Usually I tend to help out in these forums,
but i've found this increasingly annoying.

I'm looking for solutions of greasy, oily skin.
It's what's causing my spots, I assume.
And I also assume, if i dry my skin out, my spots should start to clear up?

I hate my greasy skin!
I hate my spots!

Can you reccommend anything for either?

Before you ask/suggest:
I wash my face daily with normal soap.
I would prefer solutions that you have already tried on yourself, or know somebody who has, then i know the likelyness of it working

+rep to the best solutions (not all)
Thanks!

the oxy spot range is usually quite good, and you should use any facewash, it's better than normal soap.

also try getting some face wipes n stuff, not like make-up remover ones, ones that open your pores and clean them :]

regular soap tends to be harsh on the skin. go to boots and get a cleanser, exfoliator and moisturiser.

clearasil

Wear powder.

I used facial pads that cleared my skin and pores, but I had to stop using them because I'm allergic to a certain chemical used (this is the same with sensatives ones also), but now I use medication to get rid of spots, but it also helps my skin in ways I'm not sure how

Don't use ANYTHING you find on the shelves at place like Boots and so on. I went to the Doctor and she gave me some special cream called Fluidin or something like that. It basically makes spots soft and they soon disappear. My Doctor said that most products out there are only tested on replications of the situation. So they would almost make a 'fake' spot if you will, to see if it works. Won't actually test it on the every day average human or even the ones with slightly soft skin or rougher skin.

I was going through this lol.
Dont use Oxy, It brings them out more.
Or Clearasil.

If you have a fringe or longish hair, That is why.
I shaved my hair, And it stoped spots on my forehead.

The greasy skin is, sweat and heat mixing.
You should just wash your face once you go to bed and in the morning.
First with Hot water, then with cold.

So you close your pores.

Then, After you have eaten do not touch your face.
The germs will get on your skin.
If you are cold, Your pores will be open.
And you will get spots

Eat less sugar, processed carbs and dairy food. Sugar and processed carbs increase the amount of insulin which causes more androgens which causes an overproduction of sebum oil. Dairy food does the same but it's because of the hormones they put in milk.

Try clearisil like the other person said. Works good.
