oily skin can be caused by hormone imbalances so maybe get some blood work done

I use salicylic acid face wash and a good primer and that helps alot. Also finding products that don't only limit the oil production but sit with oil well is key

i use a serum for oily skin and one with a little bit of retinol. retinol CAN help with the oily skin but everyone’s skin is different. i personally used the makeup forever powder foundation for my oily skin

Sounds counter intuitive but make sure your using a very hydrating non communogenic moisturizer

i have to get it done regularly because of some health issues but those are the only things they ever mention, so i just assumed my hormones are fine. but my diet is good i think and i get enough water so maybe i should have them check again
