oily skin remedies - #17536
I am dealing with this ongoing battle with oily skin, and it feels like a never-ending nightmare! Seriously, I can't remember the last time my face felt smooth and not like an oil slick. I tried a few things that were supposed to be good oily skin remedies but nothing seems to work for me. Like, I switched to a gel-based moisturizer, thinking that would help, but nope, still greasy by the afternoon. And don't even get me started on those blotting papers, they feel like a wild goose chase! My friends swear by some home-made oily skin remedies like using apple cider vinegar or even tea tree oil, but I'm nervous about trying those. I have sensitive skin too, so I worry about irritation or breakouts. I've read online that keeping your skin clean is essential, but I feel like I'm washing my face way too often. What do you think are the best oily skin remedies for someone who’s tried a bunch but still hasn't found relief? Are there certain ingredients I should be looking for? I've heard salicylic acid can be good, but I don’t want to jump from one product to another without knowing. Any tips or experiences would mean a lot!
