Its hard to actually get rid of oily skin, I'm not even sure if you can. you just need to control it. Stay away from any products that have alcohol in them as they will only dry out your skin resulting in your skin producing MORE oil! lol. Using a face mask that has a clay like fullers earth will help to absorb oil without drying out the skin! I have super dry skin so I'm the opposite end of the spectrum but I do envy you for the fact that oily skin ages much much better than dry skin! lol!

I have oily skin and at least twice a week I use a clay mask from Boscia that helps regulate my oil production. There is no way to rid your skin of oil permanently. Its all about control. That particular bb cream is definitely not agreeing with your skin. I think once you kick it out of your routine the skin will equalize itself and slow up with the heavy oil production.

I agree that you can't get rid of oily skin, only control it. I am currently using the seaweed range from the Body Shop and found that to be great for me. It may take a lot of trial and error to find the right products for you. I suggest trying samples from different companies (use only one company at a time) or ensure the company has a money back guarantee if you find their range unsuitable for you. I have also used oil blotting tissues from various companies over the years (currently I am using the Tea Tree ones from the Body Shop). As also suggested use a clay based mask and I'd also suggest an exfoliator once or twice a week. Good luck!
