Hello,

I'm having trouble w/ oily skin, large pores and adult acne. I cannot control it at all. I'll try a new product and it will do good for about a week, then my face becomes prone to it and not work at all. I have Epilepsy and am on excessive amounts of medication and magnesium. I'm being tested for Polycystic Ovarian Disease which has a symptom of excessive oily skin and adult acne around the mouth/chin area. This is my complaint.

I have tried everything from ranging in prices and just went from Clinique now to Mario Bandeau products. After one hour of washing my face it's very oily again, and something's I use can make dry patches because there too potent.

Please help me find a product that can work for my skin.
Thank you I need your help, Maria Lusi

People with oily skin have a hard time with acne because their skin overproduces oil that makes it more prone to clogged pores. Look for products made for acne-prone skin that contain benzoyl peroxide, resorcinol, or salicylic acid as the active ingredient. If your skin is very oily you may need to use a cleanser twice daily. Over-the-counter cleansers like Clean & Clear, Noxzema and Clearasil are good for oily skin.
