So I have extremely oily skin and nk matter how many times I wash my face or just splash water on my face, it gets super oily. What can I do to calm the oilyness down?

If you have one near you, try Dark Angels from LUSH.
I have super oily skin and that plus Coal Face really helps absorb and keep my oiliness to a minimum.
Oil absorbing sheets can help throughout the day. I also notice, in days when I can't put on my makeup like I usually do , I use my face primer (I use monistat chafing gel...don't ask...) and that, for me, tames it a bit.

1. Like Renay said, do not overwash your face! This dries your skin which causes it to produce even more oils than needed.
2. Try oil blotting sheets throughout the day to keep the shine under control.
3. Milk of Magensia can be used as a makeup primer and really controls oil.
4. Clay and mud masks are typically really awesome for oily skin.
5. Don't skip out on moistruizer. Find one that is oil free.
6. Powder makeup products can typically help keep you matte as well.
Good luck 💋💋

I've heard jojoba oil really helps. It is really similar to your face's oil, called sebum. Putting jojoba oil on your face tricks your body into thinking it's produced too much sebum, so it will produce less to compensate. Hope this helped!
