I have a really oily t zone area and wanted to know what people with the same problem do for a daily skin care routine to control the oil. Thanks in advance!??

I have acne prone combo skin (oily around the nose and on the forehead / dry on the tip of the nose)

in the morning, I start off with simply cleansing the face with a damp handkerchief. I believe my face can't be too dirty just from sleeping and all I have to do is remove any residue.
next I tone with Paula's Choice clarifying toner (the exfoliating one). Then I massage my face with a hydrating toner which is Asia exclusive.
I then put on acne treatment (either Clinique's Acne Solutions clearing gel or tea tree oil).
After that I use sunscreen from Asia and a mattifier from Olay Fresh Effects.

I use unscemted baby Castile soap from Dr Bronners. I have normal skin, but it dries me out really bad so I use coconut oil to moisturize. It's pretty cheap if you only use it for your face. It cleans everything.

While cleansers are great for some people, they have a lot of extras in there that aren't necessary. I have very oily skin and am prone to breakout. But, I haven't broken out in probably 2 years, not to mention I'm only 16 which is when you're supposed to get a lot of acne. I highly suggest in the morning wetting your fave down with warm water and felling your skin. It will probably feel kinda gross because of all the oil on it. Buy a bar of ivory soap. Nothing special just a bar it come in I think a 4-pack. Use that to wash your face. Get your hands wet and spread on your hands, then spread on your face, and after its covered start massaging in with a circular motion. Rinse with warm water. And repeat until you feel your skin and there isn't a gross oil residue. After the oil is gone wash once more and rinse with cold water to close the pores. Do this in the morning and before you go to sleep. Also, wearing foundations and such with clog your points majorly so I suggest staying far away from those. Good luck darling!

I have an oily tzone too and live in a hot n humid city. I use Soap and Glory's Peaches and Clean and Pond's Charcoal facewash (I don't remember the name correctly) alternatively. Soap and Glory's scrub your nose in it works super awesome to fight blackheads and minimize the appearance of pores. it works as a mask too. I don't use moisturisers. I have just ordered Loreal youth code texture perfector serum so lets see how that works for my oily skin. neutrogena pink grapefruit facial wash helps clean skin but it made the skin so dry that it got more oily and got a dry patch at the same time. so don't use that its too harsh.

Clay masks work really well too. natural clay mud mixed with water or freeman's lemon and mint one. either one would work good.

If you wear makeuo regularly make sure you remove it properly and every trace of it before going to sleep. avoid oily snacks like chips that are heavy in fat and salt esp at night before going to bed.

Oh and I have heard applying egg white to your face works super well too. but I haven't tried that myself. hate the egg smell.

Oh and you can also use lemon and aspirin mask. it works absolutely wonderfully! take a few soluble aspirins (uncoated ones). drop few drops of water or lemon juice on them. make a paste. scrub on face. leave for 10 minutes. wash away for glowing blackheads free pore minimized skin :-D don't use it if you are allergic to aspirin because your skin will absorb traces of it. you can also add a drop or so of honey

I use the purity cleanser and if I want to exfoliate I use st. Ives green tea scrub. Then I tone with acv diluted with water of course, and then I moisturize with cliniques dramatically different moisturizing gel. I have oily skin and the toner and the moisturizing gel really helps keep my oil at bay. And it helps with acne
