My face gets so oily I want to flip out! I clean it every night and morning with Clean and Clear Oil Free Cleaner and it's still super oily. I can wash it and it's oily in a half hour to a hour. it gets so oily it feels like I went and ran and came back all sweaty. and when I wear makeup the oil makes it look like I did a scrappy job and don't wash my face. any easy home remedies or cheep products? please help!

Make sure you're using an oil free foundation and are setting it with a powder. try using a mask,like the queen Helene mint julep one :) it'll dry it up a little, but not in a bad way. use oil absorbing sheets, you can get them really cheap almost anywhere. also,make sure you use an oil free mostrizer. I know you might not want to because your skin is so oily but if you moustoirize,your skin won't produce as much oil because the mostourizer hydrates it.

If you have acne you should go on accutane it regulates the oils in your face. I used have terribly oil skin now I have normal skin and only acne around the time of my period and that's it.

Yes yes yes to milk of magnesia. Pick it up at a drugstore or pharmacy :) Accutane definitely works but its a very serious drug, you'll need a doctor's prescription for it.

Try using organic coconut oil or argon oil at night as a moisturizer. The oil will trick the skin in not making more oils. Therefore you won't be so oily. Helped me a lot.

After cleansing your face make sure you use a toner! It levels out the ph balance of your skin and will soon make it less oily. Always moisturize. People with oily skin think they shouldn't put moisturizer on but they should! Also stick with an oil free foundation and set with a powder.
