how to get rid of oily nose - #15435

Nikhil

I am really struggling with this super oily nose situation! It's like, no matter what I do, I wake up and the first thing I see in the mirror is this shiny nose looking back at me. Ugh! I've tried all sorts of things. Cleansers, wipes, even those nose strips! Nothing seems to help for long. My friends joke around saying I can fry an egg on it, which is funny but kinda hurts too. The oil seems to come back within a few hours. I even went to a dermatologist who suggested some products but they're expensive and my wallet is feeling it. I am beginning to wonder if there’s a better way, like how to get rid of oily nose without breaking the bank? I've heard about some home remedies like using lemon juice or baking soda but I don't wanna make it worse! Has anyone here found success with something? I mean, is it just me or is it super common? Also, does diet play a role? I am really curious about what other people's experiences have been. Just want to feel normal and not worry about constantly blotting my nose. Help!
