Go to lush and talk to one of the dudes that work there. They have face cleaners that rebalance the ph of the skin to make it less oily, but since everyone has different skin its best to talk to a consultant

I bought the Clarisonic Mia in January and I LOVE it! I have super oily acne prone skin and it has helped tremendously it is definitely worth the money. I also recently invested in the Chanel mousse exfoliante purete face wash and toner for oily skin and I'm obsessed my skin is glowing and clear!

I bought one last October... Honestly I don't think they are worth the price. I have super oily skin, and within an hr of using it I noticed my face was oilier than usual, which I didn't think was possible. I was using it with the refreshing gel cleanser you can purchase from clarisonic. Also be careful if you use the deep pore head, it made my cheeks so red and irritated I had to stop using it altogether :/

Victoria are you using a moisterizer? because even oily skin needs one if you don't it make
s your skin make up for it by producing more oil

Yes, I use aveeno claiming lotion. I have tried so many products on my face! I'm at my wits end! I even have the murad mattefying lotion, that didnt work. I bought Nars sheer matte foundation, can't use it. I have really strange skin, it's so oily that it literally beads up from my skin (gross), yet at the same time I have flakey skin! So when I do try to use foundation, it accentuates the dryness. I give up lol. I'm at the point where I don't even bother with it, just wash, moisturize, and focus on eye makeup.

Ok I see its doing that because its dehydrated it can be oily and still dry try to start using your clarasonic only at nite do not use anything harsh on your skin nothing that has alcohol in it because products made to make your skin matte somtimes make it worse by leaving your skin to dry I no this sounds crazy but try a non foaming cleanser cetiphil cleanser an moisurizer let your skin calm down an drink an try drinking lemon water everyday it balances your ph from the inside maybe this will help you.

Hi, I'm a cosmetologist! I'd use it with a cold cream too, that will cleanse and moisturize at the same time. Be careful not to over do it though. I recommend using it once every other week and then adjust the frequency slowly- too often too soon could make your skin freak out.
