My face tends to get oily no matter what I use, I eat pretty healthy and wash my face every day, I've tried achne face washes for oily face but they don't work.

Are you moisturizing? It might sound counterintuitive but if you aren't hydrating your skin, you may be the culprit. Don't use harsh toners and washes that will strip your skin of natural oils. Stick to gentle and nutritive cleansers and try a lightweight, gel texture moisturizer.

I'm with Caitlin. Once I quit using toners, my skin improved immensely. It's the worst thing to put on your skin. I use a combination of The Body Shop's Seaweed Combo Skin Serum and raw coconut oil at night to keep my skin moisturized without over oiling through out the night.

Try not touching your face, I know it sounds stupid but there are a lot of oils on your hands and if your constantly touching your face the oils transfers from your hands to face. Also try using some astringent from clean and clear or neutrogena. It dries up your face and keeps it oil free for a while. Also Nars setting powder is a great oil absorber. I have oily skin so I can sympathize with you.

I have that problem and have been using the oil blotting sheets for like 10 years which are awesome, and recently I tried clean and clear advantage oil obsorbing treatment which helps a ton also! it's my new favorite

Lately I've been using dove moisturizing soap cause most face washes dry my skin :/

Try using neutrogena deep clean shine control cleanser. It has a rice protein that helps to absorb oil. I think it works really well and it helps to control my super oily skin. I agree with the need to moisterize, I love embroylisse lait-creme (I know that is spelled wrong I'm sorry). The moisterizer is a little expensive, but it honestly changes your skin. About once a week I use Queen Helene's Mint Julep Masque, it helps clear your pores and cleanse all dirt that is left behind. The masque is super cheap at Sally Beauty.
