İ have oily combination skin. My t zone shines no matter what I use. İ use oil free every thing. İ clean well and moisture all the time but I can't control my oil. Even products say shine control but with me 30 min max. İ'm tired of my shiny nose. Help girls...

Unfortunately... This is your skin type.
You just have to keep on top of it by powdering and using blot papers.

I have the same issues on my t zone too.

Yes... Definitely.
Your skin is always changing... I never had this issue when I was younger-I was normal to dry. I'm 37 now, with oily t zone.
So hopefully your skin will change up.

Milk of magnesia is a life saver. Buy the original unflavoured version and use a cosmetic sponge to dab and blend a light layer onto your T zone. It is seriously a miracle worker, my skin is insanely oily in an hour after doing makeup.

All us oily skin gals have something that is actually a plus. When I was young (I'm 39 now) I used the beat the mess out of my oily skin with super drying products so I could avoid the disco ball face. The abuse I inflicted on my skin was horrible and it reacted in ways that gave me another battle to endure. Acne. It wasn't till I met with a dermatologist who actually told me to work with my skin instead of trying to kill it with drying products. Blotting sheets and a basic skin care regiment. And also clued me into the fact that oily skins actually age at a slower rate than those with dry skin. Over the years I learned what foods set off the oilies and what foods and products actually regulate oil production instead of surpressing it. Sorry for the long drawn out response but lately I've been seeing an explosion of "oily skin" posts and some of the suggestions given just make me cringe because I've tried them all. All I'm trying to say is that in the long scheme of things oily skin has a hidden benefit and instead of killing our skin with all this nonsense we need to find ways to work with it instead of against it.

Don't worry having oily skin is not as bad as you think. Did you know that people with oily skin don't age as quick as people with dry skin. It is a fact. Also check out my latest post over on my blog and there is actually tips on this topic.

I myself have oily skin and is OK :)
