Hi,

Oily skin may be inherited and affected by hormones, stress and wrong cosmetics. There is no specific treatment for oily skin but here are some home remedies that may help with your problem. Wash your face with warm water and plenty of drying soap. You don't have to buy the expensive type. Make sure you use plenty of the soap and scrub the skin. Clay masks or mud masks may also help temporarily. Masks can cleanse the skin of surface greasiness. Astringents with alcohol or  acetone are helpful because acetone is a great fat and grease solvent. And lastly, use cosmetics that are water-based.  They are made to soak up and cover oiliness but there is no specific ingredient to slow down or stop oil production.

Take care and regards.

i have really oily skin but it is at the same time severely dry. i know it sounds bizarre, but supposedly the dryness and tightness that i feel, is causing my skin to produce double the amount of oil. my face is shiny but it feels tight. ican't really smile without feeling a pull. i don't know what is going on.... very stressed. any suggestions??
