As your skin is oily yet sensitive, over the counter remedies are likely to irritate your skin with limited benefit. Make an appointment with your doctor for oral antibiotics such as oxytetracycline or erythromycin and treat your oily skin from the inside. If you are female you can also reduce oiliness by taking an anti-androgen contraceptive pill like dianette (called Diane35 in the USA). While you wait to see your doctor try the cleanser and toner for oily skin by Estee Lauder. It can be used frequently without irritation. Eloise x

I use "Olay Cleanse (foam)" for my oily skin and it works REALLY well.  You should try it.  If you're in the United States, you can find it anywhere.
