My skin is really oily (especially during the summer) and nothing I've tried has solved it. What are tricks you guys use to fix your oily skin? I'm absolutely desperate!

I use milk of magnesum, and it works pretty well, but I'm open to other ideas too! :)

Try using maple syrup, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Mix it up and apply it on to your face as a face mask. Make sure to open pores with hot water first then close then with cold water after. :)

Try banana, honey, and lemon. I'm actually going to try that today to see if it helps my oily skin.

My face is super oily.. I find something that helps me is a lot of moisturizer.. a thick one.. I have one but unfortunately its only been sold at one place I've seen in my travels of australia... so I suggest using an oil free cleanser and face wash at night time and then just slathering moisturizer all over it because dry skin actually is the cause for excessive oil

Blotting papers. Also try washing your face with oatmeal. That's what I do and I find that it controls oil production and shine better than other cleansers.

I'm still searching too 😩 but I have found that although people recommend mineral makeup for our skin type, since I've been using a press powder (Rimmel mattifying in translucent) my skin is just as matte if not more than when I was using the MOM and it's so cheap and I can reapply if I need to so I love it. I just arm myself with that and blot plenty throughout the day ^.<
