i am a beginner that has just started learning how to put makeups. the thing that i'm struggling about now is the eyeliner part. i have tried some brands of pencil eyeliners such as wet'n'wild h2o proof and nyc. but all these brands of eyeliners don't stay but smudges and come off after i apply eyeliner a couple hours. i guess i have oily skin. i am just wondering if there's anyone could recommend me eyeliners that wouldn't smudge, and even beginners can use them easily. Eyeliners that wouldn't smudge for oily skin?
try revlon eyeliner , it is great
and dosen't smudges and it is really cheapEyeliners that wouldn't smudge for oily skin?
Test this out:
Apply the eyeliner, (cheap, expensive w/e!)
Grab an angular brush, and some black eyeshadow, and DAB it on the desired area.
and it'll stay on all day!
=]
MAC makes really nice gel eyeliner that is smudge-proof. It's in a little pot, and they have sooo many colors. I love them!
Gel eyeliner pot from JANE Cosmetics and Mac Eyeliner pot in Blacktrack, you will need an eyeliner brush too
MAC fluidline- the gel liners.

Help !! i have extremely extremely extremely oily skin....:((?
even the slightest amount of make-up comes off within seconds of application and my skin always appears dull and black and lifeless. My face looks extremely sticky everytime. Plz helpHelp !! i have extremely extremely extremely oily skin....:((?
If you have oily skin and it is with pimples you can use a neem face pack. also you can use upton powder with sandal wood powder as they both draw out oils from pores. Rosewater is also an astringent. These things will help brighten up your skin.
But most import is your diet. Do you eat oily foods? The oils have to escape some where.
That could be one of the factors of your make- up disappearing. Also make sure that your make-up is oil free.
And if your skin is becoming dark, you have your own natural suntan oil. So cut back on oil that you eat.Help !! i have extremely extremely extremely oily skin....:((?
U need to wash ur face when ever it looks oily .. use aface wash made for oily skin only ... clean ur skin with a cleanser n then apply a toner .. do these 3 steps every morning n at night .. before applying make up .. apply ice on ur face .. then apply the toner .. then u can apply makeup specially made for oily skin ... use matte products ..
You may need to go Make up free. I can't wear make up everyday. My skin is extremely oily, and it ends up looking like I'm wearing pudding on my face. Every once in a while is OK, but daily really hurts my skin.
Also, try cleaners for oily skin. I use Panoxyl soap, and microdermabrasion two times a week, to renew my skin. This may help.
You can start with the source below. It talks about oily skin care and even provides some all natural remedies you can try.
Use Dove international soap or pears oil control face wash.
regularly wash face wit luke warm water before applying any make up..
You must watch your face using ponds face wash or similar face wash. It will help to remove oily skin. Please watch three to four times so that your skin remain clean.

What to do to remove the oily skin?
Hai,
More Detail Is Your Mind.
ThanxWhat to do to remove the oily skin?
The key is a good routine
Cleanse- Achool free- achool drys skin and thus produces more oils.
Tone- removes oil that your cleanser forgot. Try find a mattifying toner this dulls the skin down so it looks fresh not shiny
MOISTURIZE - this actually stops your skin from over producing oil!!!! This keeps it moist so your body doesn't freak out and go oil crazy to make it moist!
Make sure you get plenty of water everyday too. This keeps your body/skin hydrated, so it will stop your body from producing more oil to compensate for lack of water.
As far as products I use Beyond Belief - ABH (alpha beta hydroxy) @ Sally's Beauty Supply. It works wonders!
I hope this helped a little!What to do to remove the oily skin?
Reduce eating oil foods, avoid coffee ot tea, wash your face drink more water avoid face creams.Apply lemon twice a day .
Other than washing your face, and using face powder...You can wash your face with egg yolk.
Take a cup of lime juice n add 2 to 3 tbs yogurt to it.
Mix it well n apply on ur face.
Leave it 4 abt 1/2hr to 45mins.
Try it at least once a wk.
Within the 3rd time ..u can feel the difference.

use a scrub that contains masoor dal twice a week, a toner everyday after a bath, and a mixture of curd and lime juice everyday before a bath. also use a fuller's earth face pack once a week... you cant stop the skin from becoming oily, but you can ensure that you remove the excess oils which could lead to problems of stickiness, pimples, acne, blackheads and whiteheads. if you're looking for some skin care products, i recommend Shene. they're natural and effective. here's the link http://www.geocities.com/sheneherbals

Why people gets pimples on thier oily skin?
how can v open a car using mobile phone when key is inside the car and the car is locked?Why people gets pimples on thier oily skin?
यार गौरव,
पिँपल्स आने की दो बड़ी वजह हैं।
1.असंतुलित आहार-
असंतुलित आहार का मतलब यहाँ ऑयली खाने से नही है।
असंतुलित आहार माने बेवक्त भोजन करना।
2.ऑयली त्वचा-
ऑयली त्वचा पर तेल की एक परत होती है,
हवा मे मौजूद धूल या मिट्टी इस तेल को चिपक जाती है, इसके विरोध मे शरीर की और से हुई प्रक्रिया को हम पिँपल्स (फुनसि) के रूप मे देखते हैं।
आशा करता हूँ दी गई जानकारी से तुम संतुष्ट होगे!
और हाँ उस कार खोलने वाले मोबाईल के बारे मे जैसेही पता चले मुझे बताना मत भूलना!Why people gets pimples on thier oily skin?
Oily skin and the skin cells that naturally shed combine and clog the pores.
You can't open a car using mobile phone. Whoever started that story was just joking.
RELATION OF PIMPLES TO OPENING OF CAR?
what kind of answer u expect from this question
pimples happen not b/c u have oily skin, but because of a poor diet, and lack of nutrition.
Acne or pimples are usually a result of hormonal changes and an irregular and increased production of oil by the sebaceous glands. An excellent remedy for pimples or acne-prone skin can be made by mixing 1 teaspoon ground cloves with 2 tablespoons fullers earth and ice water. When you wash your face, use sugar to scrub it, at least once a day, for two weeks to rid yourself of acne. Check out http://useinfo-acne.blogspot.com/ for more useful info.

All of a sudden i have oily skin?
I am a 13 year old boy, 14 in august. My spots seem to have gotten worse over the days, so i decided i would not eat chocolate and drink 2 litres of water a day, and eat bananas and apples. After doing this for a bout a week, my skin has became very oily, and my spots seem to be getting worse! Im also eating Whole grains, no chocolate in my diet, and not many dairy products. How can i keep getting these problems! please helpAll of a sudden i have oily skin?
it's onset of pueberty, clean your face and what ever else is oily. and keep drinking milk don't stunt your growth. avoid alcohol and drugs, smokingAll of a sudden i have oily skin?
its probably just puberty and hormones. don't keep eating the same things each day. its not good for you to have to many fruits, you need a variety of foods. also its not true that chocolate gives you acne. so you can have chocolate. my friend has went a couple years without chocolate hoping it would clear her acne but she still has a lot and wasn't worth it. so your skin is probably just naturally oily. wash your face in the morning and at night. use a moisturizer that doesnt have a lot or any oil. try using proactive, it works pretty good if you use it when your suppose to. hope this helps. good luck.
ohmygoodness! i know what you're saying...except i've been super oily since last summer! it sucks. but it's gotten better. i know you're a boy but you can use this moisturizer from clinique. it's supposed to help with oily skin. and it's not something girly because moisturizer is just lotion....

if you have oily skin
wash your face with alchohol every night and morning.
trust me.
i'm 14 and i had the same problem.
it worked fine for me.
You could be starting puberty..also when you over wash your face it dries out the skin causing the oils to overproduce in trying to re-moisturize your skin.
I don't think chocolate is the problem its harmones good on the drinking water tho.
Just use a facial wash and moisturise.
Probably just puberty. Wash your face once a day.
answer mine? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>
Do you have a daily washing routine? You might want to start one now. I have noticed a lot of people have been saying their are more oily this year
Wash your face with soap, it's not the chocolate... I eat chocolate and I only get one weird thingy on my face every month.
puberty hahaha. its ok man everyone goes through it. Its gonna go on for a yearish.
its called PUEBERTY
if its genetic it will last a long time or use anti oil facewash
why don't you go to a nutriologist or a dermatologist?
I had this problem once, just wash your face often. It is summer after all. Best of Luck!
google it
try an anti oil soap.it helps a lot.
have a wash
The great advantage of oily skin is that it ages at a slower rate than other skin types.
Oily skin needs special cleansing with plenty of hot water and soap to prevent the pores from being clogged. Avoid harsh products that strip your skin of oil and encourage flakiness. They can cause a reaction known as reactive seborrhoea, where the oil glands work overtime to compensate for the loss of natural oils.
Avoid skincare products that leave your skin feeling taut and dehydrated. They cause the upper layers of the skin to shrink. This restricts oil flow through the pores leading to blockages and breakouts.
To cleanse oily skin, use oil-based products as they dissolve sebum effectively. Opt for oil-free moisturizers to maintain a shine-free complexion.
Keep your skin very clean. Limit washing your face to two or three times a day. Too much washing will stimulate your skin to produce more oil.
Choose your cleanser with care. Avoid heavy cleansing creams. Avoid the use of harsh soaps or cleansers. Use a pure soap with no artificial additives. Try an antibacterial cleansing lotion or a lightly medicated soap, and use it in combination with a water rich in minerals, not tap water. Do not use cleansers or lotions that contain alcohol. After cleansing, apply a natural oil-free moisturizer to keep the skin supple.
Use hot water when washing your face. Hot water dissolves skin oil better than lukewarm or cold water.
If your skin is extremely oily, three or four daily cleansings may be in order and little or no moisturizing necessary before you are 30 years old. After that point, the skin around your eyes and mouth and on your throat may benefit from a nightly moisturizing, plus a mere touch of moisturizer in the morning.
When cleansing, massage your face well with your fingertips, using an upward and outward motion. Be careful not to rub soap into the skin; it can clog pores.
If your oily skin is scaly, you can often correct the problem by using a deep-cleaning exfoliant on alternate nights, and following the treatment with a light coating of moisturizer.
Try using a clay or mud mask. If you have sensitive skin, use white or rose-colored clays.
Use a light antiseptic night cream from time to time if you wish, and apply a clarifying mask one or two times a week.
Choose cosmetic and facial care products specifically designed for oily skin.
Before applying makeup, use an antiseptic day cream with active ingredients that diminish sebaceous secretions. Look for benzyl peroxide in the list of active ingredients.
Use a light antiseptic night cream from time to time if you wish, and apply a clarifying mask one or two times a week.

Having trouble deciding which foundation for Oily Skin.?
I've been looking around alot..all over every makeup website (Covergirl, Rimmel, Almay, Maybelline, Neutrogena, Physicians Formula) and i was comparing foundations. I have oily/combo skin and currently get random pimples, and blemishes that won't dissapear. I'm looking for something that i can put on and not have to touch up (long lasting). Plus with the blemishes my face has it's red spots so covering those are a plus.. anyways I've narrowed it down to two choices:

What is the best foundation for oily skin?
IM 14 and my skin is pretty oily. My acne is about 80% under control but I still need some coverage. I need a foundation that looks natural and doesn't look cakey and matches my skin. Something that also can cover up redness from my acne medication would be nice too... I want my skin to just look clean and clear. I've tried soo many foundations inlcuding Bobbi Brown (seeps into pores too much) MAC (causes breakouts), Cargo, Lorac, and Benefit and had problems with all of them. I'm beggining to lose hope so any suggestions?What is the best foundation for oily skin?
Estee Lauder Double wear. Amazing much?
Bare Minerals is only for people who have almost perfect skin. It's just to polish the face, not to actually cover.
You should only wash your face twice a day. Exceeding that will cause your skin to flake. Gross.What is the best foundation for oily skin?
these are the formulas i have tried and liked and lasted on my oily skin even through the hot florida summers...
mark powder buff foundation $8
avon perfect wear extralasting $10
revlon colorstay (nonactive) $12
merle norman lasting $26
clarins truly matte $35
Well definately stay away from liquid foundation if you have oily skin. Have you tried Bare Minerals or any other mineral make up? I can only recomend Bare minerals because that is the only mineral make up i have actually tried, but i love it!! It defenitely works great for me and its actually good for your skin.
I'm guessing you have oily and sensitive skin. Try powder foundations and those that are oil-free and are hypo-allergenic. I'm using Clinique(powder foundation) right now and I've a combination/oily skin. It looks great on me. Try that. :)
Yah well i suggest u wash ur face 10 times a day it worked for me. I used to have the same problem. Also u should try preperation H it's worked miracles. You can get it at any local store like cvs just ask at the register.
SPend 2 bucks on the following, you will be glad you did:
1. sample of the green concealer at LAminerals.com
2. sample of the HOllywood mineral foundation, same place.
The concealer is also a mineral powder, so will not aggravate your acne or make it worse. The Hollywood mineral foundation covers GREAT and lasts all day.
All their ingredients are non-comedogenic. Plus they don't put talc (clogs pores), or bismuth oxychloride in theirs.
Bare minerals and sheer cover use bismuth, which can also irritate your skin.
I'll give you a great link I found that rates ingredients. Knowledge is power!

Having trouble deciding which foundation for Oily Skin.?
I've been looking around alot..all over every makeup website (Covergirl, Rimmel, Almay, Maybelline, Neutrogena, Physicians Formula) and i was comparing foundations. I have oily/combo skin and currently get random pimples, and blemishes that won't dissapear. I'm looking for something that i can put on and not have to touch up (long lasting). Plus with the blemishes my face has it's red spots so covering those are a plus.. anyways I've narrowed it down to two choices:
1.Neutrogena's SkinClearing Oil-Free Foundation which fights acne while it is still a foundation.
2.Almay's Clear Complexion Liquid Makeup which also fights acne.
I just wanted to know if anybody has tried these before and what was the outcome. I saw that each brand does about the same thing..but just wondering.

Consider Bare Minerals makeup. I have combination skin also and find that it is great. The bisque covers red / dark spots awsome. I have Alot Less break outs, but when I do I use Oxy vanishing cream at night.Having trouble deciding which foundation for Oily Skin.?

For Oily Skin :
I suggest Neutrogena Healthy Skin foundation.
I also suggest M路A路C Studio Fix Powder Plus.
These are both great foundations!
almay's alright, but can get kind of cakey towards the end of the day... neutrogena's alright also, but can be a little harsh on the skin. I have the same type of skin that you do, and personally, I love the covergirl clean make up. It lasts a really long time and covers red really well while letting things like freckles show through... and never looking like a mask. It also actually helped dry my acne while leaving dry spots moisturized (didn't make them drier). The upside of this is that it is really cheap make up (like $4 a bottle). I would suggest getting the powder too to set the make-up and make it last longer, if that's what you decide to go for:]
The perfect combination I've found is actually maybelline liquid mineral foundation and mary kay mineral foundation powder, since no one can even tell I'm wearing make up and it gives great SPF protection + is really lightweight while having a lot of coverage. It lasts for me, so if you want perfection, try that. If you want almost perfection, try the cover girl.

How does bare escentuals work on oily skin?
so i have oily/normal skin, i also tend to break out around my forehead. but how will bare escentuals foundation work on me? i'm trying to buy new makeup to ELIMINATE shine, and possibly acne. i don't have terrible acne but i do have scars. i've been using the AVEDA wet or dry foundation powder...and it seems to be giving me weird bumps on my face. and it makes me oily after a few hours. HELP!!! any suggestions for makeup that can STOP my oily face? i wash and moisturize and blah blah. wrinkles aren't really a problem for me, but i do have huge poresHow does bare escentuals work on oily skin?
bare essentials work well, its suppose to be the best for oily skin, but prepare to pay more then usualHow does bare escentuals work on oily skin?
Bare Minerals has bismuth oxychloride, which can irritate sensitive or acne-prone skin. It also can make it look shiny after awhile. I used it and that's what happened to me. Look for something that doesn't contain that ingredient. Now I use signature minerals; only available online.
Bare Mineral's is great for oily skin. If you have huge pores though and oily skin...you should definitely use a foundation primer underneath it. Benefit makes a few really good ones, and Bare Mineral's has one also called ';prime time';. It'll keep the makeup on all day. If you decide to get Bare Minerals, the best way to go is to get the starter kit. It comes with something called mineral veil which is a setting powder and GREAT for oily skin and shine. During the day if you start to get shiny you just brush the mineral veil over it...it's a translucent powder.
The makeup will also help with your skin and any blemishes.
Bare Escentuals will be great for you. Use their prime time foundation primer first to reduce the appearance of large pores, then buff the foundation into your skin longer and with more pressure than you probably think is sufficient then finish with mineral veil. The veil has cornstarch in it so it will absorb excess oil and give you a good finish. If you are VERY oily you can use the veil before and after the foundation. I believe that people who don't like the look of bare escentuals are using way too much product and not buffing nearly enough.
I've heard that BE doesn't have the best coverage for acne, and it definitely won't get rid of them. But since it is mineral make up, chances of irritation is far less.
For shine I recommend MAC blot. I have the same thing, and MAC blot works VERY well at controlling shine.
I'd also go read some reviews before buying they're very informative and often talk about application of a specific product as well.
Over 1900 reviews for BE:

MAC blot: http://makeupalley.com/product/showreview.asp/ItemId=572/Blot_Powder/MAC/Pressed_Powders
For minimizing the appearance of your pores, I'd suggest using Clinique Pore Minimizer Instant Perfector:
http://makeupalley.com/product/showreview.asp/ItemId=34363/Pore_Minimizer_Instant_Perfector/Clinique/Primer/_Corrector
I use it as well, it's very good at filling in the pores to disguise them/shine control.
These products may seem a bit pricy, but they're well worth it!

What makeup can i use for oily skin?
i hate my face.
like seriously.
i have freckles, and some pimples on my chin and forehead that dont go away.
i'm using stride x for it, so i've got that covered-for now. lol.
anyways - i use eyeliner, mascara, mineral powder from bare natural, and blush.
but every day after like 1st period, my skin is oily and the pimples and freckles are noticable again. ))):
is there any good makeup that stays on all day? or any treatments for oily skin? thanks so much! (:What makeup can i use for oily skin?
The powder foundation is definitely what would be best for your skin, but I think you might want a primer underneath your foundation, preferably something that will absorb some of the oil like ';Matte It Face and Lips'; from the Body Shop. That should help keep your makeup in place and not shiny or oily. Good luck! What makeup can i use for oily skin?
i have the same problem you do and i havent found a cure for it, but i know what can help is by reapplying your makeup, i know thats probably not what your looking for, but thats all the advice iv got. hope this helps!! : ) let me know when you have a cure for oily skin?! lol. id love to know. im really sick of it. iv had it for about 2 years now and it suxs.
there isnt any makeup that actually helps with that,
but you can get Clean And Clear Morning Burst oil blotters.
They are kind of expensive, about $6.50 for 50, but they work SO well.
I used to come home from school with an orange face because the oil would change the color.
This takes off the shine that can come with the oil to, its really great. Dries everything up right when you wipe.
good luck :D
Start with mark.'s MATTE CHANCE moisturizer ($15). It is great to neutralize oil and give your skin an even tone.
Then use one of mark.'s foundations, they are all oil-free and cost just $8.
For mid-day touchups try their MATTE-NIFICIENT oil neutralizing powder.

Which mineral foundation is good for oily skin?
Bare minerals or Everyday Minerals?Which mineral foundation is good for oily skin?
have you tried clinique?Which mineral foundation is good for oily skin?
Bare Escentuals is very good but from personal experience when it comes to the oily skin issue its not so much the foundation that will help as it is the skin care your applying prior to the foundation. I also used Clinique and its good too but like all my other foundations i found myself having to do more touch ups than i cared to have to do. My recommendation is to get skin care that controls oil ( I use Dr. Murads and its really good)..and then find a foundation that helps control oil but also good for your skin ( Bare Escentuals, Clinique, etc.)
You have to treat your skin deeper if you dont want too much greasy on your face try Eucerin for oily skin this is the better that you can do and conbine it with the mineral foundation that you choose. If you do that you will remember me.
I love my Bare Minerals...I have combination skin, and it's not in good shape due to sun damage when I was younger, and I swear by Bare Minerals! The other day someone even commented that my make up looked like it was professionally done--and it wasn't!
use foundation with Sonya i.e. FLP Products, its 100% natural, no chemical added, its will develope our beauty more.
try clarins paris, they have everything for every skin type.
bere
With bare minerals you look v. shiny that's da prob
Have you tried Estee Laudeer? If you haven't, try it because they work with all types of skin. Even really oily skin. Try it because it works and I have proof. My mom uses it and it covers up good. You get gifts and also the ingredients are all natural.
calamine lotion
I use Physicians Formula. You can find at most of your local drug stores, Target has it the cheapest. They have anti shine products for oily skin. Its talc free and doesn't cause pore clogging. Its worked wonders with my skin!! Bare minerals makes you skin shiny.
Try the matte formula of Everyday Minerals!!!.. it's totally awesome, remember to use with their finishing dust. Makeup can last for good 8 hours, in a glowy way.
What's good about everyday minerals is that you can always try first, order samples online, but you'll have to pay the postage though. can try a generous size of 3 foundations, blush and concealer.
I have tried BE and Everyday Minerals. I perfer everyday minerals cos BE broke me out badly.

Lady Emily! It's setting powder is made with rice which absorbs the oil great! The mineral veil that BE sells is made with corn starch which is cheap and doesn't work as well. I have an oily t-zone and the Lady Emily mineral makeup works SO SO much better at controlling the oil throughout a 12-hour day! I used BE for 3 years and wish I'd found Lady Emily sooner. And its sold through independent consultants so you can get personalized service and try the products before buying. I love it so much, I decided to sell it myself!
Hmm i have combination skin and i have tried bare minerals and well I didn't like it very much. I like Neutragena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation. It's good it doesn't have oil, talc fragrance or any other harmful stuff. Your name sounds Indian so well my friend got this foundation from India lakme face magic souffle. It gives her a great coverage and she says is good for her oily skin too. So if u r in India u might want to get that.
I use bear minerals. Im only 12 but my proactive makes my face oily and it drys my oil and it makes my skin look so pretty. and no it does not make it shiny.

Which AcneFree Kit is best for oily skin?
I have oily skin, mostly on my forehead and nose. I have these pimples on my forehead and the side of my face that just WON'T go away. I have been trying Cetaphil for a week now, and it hasn't done anything yet. I wanted to try the Acnefree system but im not sure which kit to get.
I wouldn't say i have sensitive skin, i do know when i use a cleanser and then sea breeze it Burns my face for a minute then it goes away. So if that makes my skin sensitive, then i guess it it. =)
I think i should use the normal one but i would be mad if it doesn't work, and i could have bought the severe one.
I don't have severe acne just a lot of pimples on my forehead.Which AcneFree Kit is best for oily skin?
well maybe you should be patient with the Cataphil, or maybe you should try this product!well i know you tried neutrogena but i'm sure you didn't try ALL of their products! i've been using the Neutrogena wave DUO, don't get the regular wave get the duo because the duo has two speeds and the regular duo has only one speed, but when you put it on speed one it is a daily massage to your skin to clean make up or dirt, but speed two is a deep pore cleansing and gets more dirt and other bad stuff for your skin. when you register on neutrogena.com/wave you can get a $3 off you purchase of a neutrogena wave duo and $2 off your purchase of your refill pads! but if you buy it get it at Walgreen's or wal-mart, and when you get refill pads get the blemish free kind because that's the one that helps with your acne the best, it's made with salicylic acid and that helps remove dead skin cells and dirt from your pores to get rid of your blemishes,( but you have to be patient because it takes a few days or weeks for it to get most of you zits to be gone but it's worth it), and the duo is around $18 and the refills ore about $7-$9 and some people say it just vibrates one your skin but really you kind of have to put some pressure and rub it in a circular motion on your skin and after a minute you can feel it working and after a use or two your skin will feel softer and the blemish free pads work great, the wave duo kit comes with the wave duo, 14 foaming pads, and a AA battery! and when you get refill pads they come with 30 pads and a new attachment head because tou have to replace it every once in a while. and all you have to do to put it all together is put the battery in and put a pad on and the pad will have some good smelling liquid in the middle and you put that on and run it under warm water, and i know on the advertisement there was foam all over the girls face but it doesn't foam that much! but i hope you buy the product! i really hope i helped! and i was struggling just like you with acne but i've mostly over come it with this product!Which AcneFree Kit is best for oily skin?
in the facial cleansing area look more toward the soaps and there is this blue %26amp; white bar called ';gamophen'; it isn't really soap and it's under $2. can be used on sensitive skin. also drink 8 glasses of water a day, more if you do sport. also for every cup of coke or milo or anything drink the equivilant amount of water to dilute.
HOPE IT WAS OF SOME HELP!!!!
GOOD LUCK!!!!!moles

well maybe you should be patient with the Cataphil, or maybe you should try this product!well i know you tried neutrogena but i'm sure you didn't try ALL of their products! i've been using the Neutrogena wave DUO, don't get the regular wave get the duo because the duo has two speeds and the regular duo has only one speed, but when you put it on speed one it is a daily massage to your skin to clean make up or dirt, but speed two is a deep pore cleansing and gets more dirt and other bad stuff for your skin. when you register on neutrogena.com/wave you can get a $3 off you purchase of a neutrogena wave duo and $2 off your purchase of your refill pads! but if you buy it get it at Walgreen's or wal-mart, and when you get refill pads get the blemish free kind because that's the one that helps with your acne the best, it's made with salicylic acid and that helps remove dead skin cells and dirt from your pores to get rid of your blemishes,( but you have to be patient because it takes a few days or weeks for it to get most of you zits to be gone but it's worth it), and the duo is around $18 and the refills ore about $7-$9 and some people say it just vibrates one your skin but really you kind of have to put some pressure and rub it in a circular motion on your skin and after a minute you can feel it working and after a use or two your skin will feel softer and the blemish free pads work great, the wave duo kit comes with the wave duo, 14 foaming pads, and a AA battery! and when you get refill pads they come with 30 pads and a new attachment head because tou have to replace it every once in a while. and all you have to do to put it all together is put the battery in and put a pad on and the pad will have some good smelling liquid in the middle and you put that on and run it under warm water, and i know on the advertisement there was foam all over the girls face but it doesn't foam that much! but i hope you buy the product! i really hope i helped! and i was struggling just like you with acne but i've mostly over come it with this product!Which AcneFree Kit is best for oily skin?
in the facial cleansing area look more toward the soaps and there is this blue %26amp; white bar called ';gamophen'; it isn't really soap and it's under $2. can be used on sensitive skin. also drink 8 glasses of water a day, more if you do sport. also for every cup of coke or milo or anything drink the equivilant amount of water to dilute.
HOPE IT WAS OF SOME HELP!!!!
GOOD LUCK!!!!!

i have oily skin too and i found a GREAT product at Sephora called Dr. Brandt's Pores No More. it was $45 but so worth it--a bottle will last you forever. It's also tinted so i carry it in my purse and throughout the day i can apply it actually OVER my makeup and it doesnt mess it up. its a primer, which means you put it on after moisturizer (ask them for help with ones for oily skin; i like Cosmedicine's Medi-Matte), and before your powder. Pores No More soaks up the oil INSTANTLY. i only re-apply about once a day. Dr. Brandt makes lots of other products for the same thing but this is the only one I tried. Also, Sephora gave me a sample of it to try it before I bought it. For foundation you should defintley use powders and not liquid. i like the minerals bc its all natural, which is better for breakouts but i also wear MAC loose powder %26amp; MAC Studio FIX (NOT Studio TECH--it's cream-based) and i like Makeup Forever brand. You should make sure you are washing your make-up brushes with make-up brush cleanser and washing your face will be the most important steps for clear skin. Toner/astringent twice a day is good for soaking up oil.

Having trouble deciding which foundation for Oily Skin.?
I've been looking around alot..all over every makeup website (Covergirl, Rimmel, Almay, Maybelline, Neutrogena, Physicians Formula) and i was comparing foundations. I have oily/combo skin and currently get random pimples, and blemishes that won't dissapear. I'm looking for something that i can put on and not have to touch up (long lasting). Plus with the blemishes my face has it's red spots so covering those are a plus.. anyways I've narrowed it down to two choices:
1.Neutrogena's SkinClearing Oil-Free Foundation which fights acne while it is still a foundation.
2.Almay's Clear Complexion Liquid Makeup which also fights acne.
I just wanted to know if anybody has tried these before and what was the outcome. I saw that each brand does about the same thing..but just wondering.
Thanx a bunch.
=D
P to the S: I was also looking for good blemish correctors/concealer so does anybody have any suggestions about that?Having trouble deciding which foundation for Oily Skin.?
for beauty product reviews go to makeupalley.com
they sort their products by skin type, age range, skin color, hair color, eye color.

ps- i use clinique foundationHaving trouble deciding which foundation for Oily Skin.?

Bare minerals works amazing!! It is the best at covering up acne and they have powders that help fight acne. It is not a liquid foundation like you said you wanted but this works so much better!! It feel so light on and it blends in so nicely.

Does Accutane/Roaccutane only work for oily skin?
I've had acne for about 5 years, varying from mild to severe over the years. My skin has never been oily - more on the dry/sensitive side.
I was on Accutane for about 6 months but it didn't seem to do much for me. While I was on it, the only side effect was dry lips. Which I thought was strange. I was prepared for the worst because my skin was already quite dry. My last trip to the dermatologist, my skin was looking good so he decided to take me off the Accutane.
At the time I was living down the coast learning to surf and was at the beach every day - so I'm thinking the salt water is probably what cleared my skin up. But now I'm back in the city studying, off the Accutane and my acne has returned. :(
So it seems Accutane didn't work for me. Is it possible it just doesn't work for some people? Does it only clear up acne for people with oily skin? I was always told Accutane is a last resort for people with acne, but I've been there and done that with no results.Does Accutane/Roaccutane only work for oily skin?
it should work even if your skin is dry, you may need a second course of it though, some people need to take it twice.
did you always take it with food? because that is very important so it is absorbed properly.Does Accutane/Roaccutane only work for oily skin?
Are you sure it didn't do anything - you said the doctor took you off it because your skin was very clear.
Why do you attribute the salt water to clearing the acne but not the accutane? I would be more likely to assume that the accutane cleared it out.
I have had severe acne for the last 6 years(i'm 20). i have had accutane for the last 8 month(i'll be done in couple of days). before that i used to swim 4 hours a day and my acne was gone, but then in came back. accutane i just got the dry lips too, however i still get regular break outs but they cure much much faster, which leads me to believe that accuatance for the guys in prolonged acne problems is not a ';permanent'; solution
I think after two month my acne will comeback, which i will have to wait another six month to get back on accutane
Hope this helps

Have you tried this for your skin (helps with acne and oily skin, dry patches)?
I recently discovered that using these products helped my skin. All skin is different, but if any of then might help you, then why not try? The important thing is to be gentle with your skin.
So, top three products:
-glycerin soap
-olive oil
-rose water
all these are fairly cheap, especially considering that it takes a very long time to use them all up.
I don't really have a routine set in stone, but basically, what I do in the morning is wash my face with the glycerin soap, and then use the rose water as toner. My skin was oily (the greasy type that gets slick 45 minutes after washing your face), and that seems to be very good in controlling it (but I think it is a combination of all the things I do).
Sometimes, you might still need some lotion to combat the flaky bits (which I still get, even with oily skin), but I can tell mine are slowly reducing, and I need extra products less and less.
If I have had make-up on my face during the day, I may either wash my face with glycerin soap (this is at the end of the day, but not right before I go to bed) and tone again with rose water, or I may massage my face with olive oil for a few minutes, and then wash with glycerin soap and tone.
Then, right before I go to bed, I may or may not (this I say because you don't have to do this every night, it's up to you...customize it to your own skin type) do the OCM (Oil Cleansing Method)....well, actually it is my variation of it:
Rub a teaspoon of olive oil over face.
Soak towel in hot water (or run under hot water).
Put towel over face until it cools, and dab at oil.
Repeat towel soaking again.
done
My main goal was to share this, as it has really helped me (after a few weeks)
P.S. Whereas some oils clog pores, olive oil (for me at least) doesn't, and it actually draws out the bad stuff in pores, so that they don't clog. If anything, it will make your acne less painful, and shortlived.
So, for the purposes of the question, how many of you have tried this, and how many think that you will give it a shot?
Do you have your own beauty tips?
Have you tried this for your skin (helps with acne and oily skin, dry patches)?
I think you're right about the glycerine soap. Being a guy I find this soap is alright. If I have some dry skin, after shave gel seems good too, zingy and cool.
I might try that olive-oil if it helps your face clear up a bit, the finest of 'blackheads'.
But are you sure it is not your diet? Has that changed recently?
Cool tips however, and glad you're seeing results. It also sounds like the methods/measures are not too drastic. Nice one.Have you tried this for your skin (helps with acne and oily skin, dry patches)?
i simply cleans,tone and moisturise its easy and quick and a face mask once a month that works for me
one beauty tip i can give is never use soap on your face. use something that has tea tree oil in it to cleanse it.
also, eating almonds is supposed to help your skin (and concentration too), and eating food that contains olive oil such as pesto can be an aid to healthy skin.
also, i have found that smearing peach melba yoghurt on your face and leaving it on until the yoghurt goes dry does it the power of good too. you can get it really cheap aswell. the only drawback is the bits get in your hair lol.
i like the idea you have of the ocm, but i will stick to the fucidic acid cream for my acne, plenty of water, and plenty of rest.
