How can I have less oily skin and less acne?

Question by MJ: How can I have less oily skin and less acne?
I’ve had very oily skin for a long time. I wear makeup and even when I don’t, after washing I will be shiny within 10 minutes. I’m also extremely oily/shiny when I wake up. I’ve also had issues with acne and haven’t found anything that works for me, so I have bad redness and scars from that also. I’m too insecure to not wear makeup around anyone and I really would like to improve my skin and be more comfortable.

It just seems unhealthy and I really want healthy, good looking skin. I drink lots of water already and eat lots of veggies. Does anyone have any worthy products, vitamins, or successful remedies they would recommend?

You can order proactive. I hear it works wonderfully. Also try to keep your face clean, wash your makeup off before going to sleep at night with a small amount of soap, try tear free Johnson baby wash or dawn dish soap gets rip of oil. I would also make sure to read lables on the products so you aren’t making it worse. Hope this helped.

Q&A: Is spray sunblock less greasy than the lotion kind?

Question by gimpalong: Is spray sunblock less greasy than the lotion kind?
I have very fair skin and I’d like to keep it that way. I have been using Lubriderm lotion with SPF in it. It’s getting warmer and sunnier out and I burn like crazy…so I need to get sunblock too. Using the lotion does keep me from getting burned, but its so heavy and greasy on my skin. And plus if I start to sweat it all seems to run off or make my skin feel oily. Is the spray sunblock less greasy than the lotion?

I’ve seen several kinds that say that they’re fast-drying…Does that mean they won’t get sticky?

I need to use it not just for the beach (I rarely go to the beach), but just for everyday stuff, being outside, running errands, doctor’s appointments, being in the car for long periods of time…
