    How many times to wash very oilly face?
    Hi I heard that the more I wash my face the more oily it gets... but I need to wash my face regulary to prevent any pimples from forming so how many times a day should I wash my face and exfoliate??

    Hai,

    Depends on your skin type. It is best to wash it once in the morning then once at night. Also, use a face soap like Almay makes.
    Overwashing or over exfoliating will keep getting rid of skin cells and skin will not look healthy or firm.
    Exfoliate once a week.

    If you live in an over polluted city then you need to wash your face 4 times a day.. otherwise its OK if you wash it twice a day

    I use to have really bad skin. I use to wash it all the time but then it got worse because it dried out. If it dries out put lotion on it. Just wash your face in the morning and at night. And put lotion on both night and day. Don't pick at red pimples!! Only pop the white heads!

    It might help to look for face washes and moisturizers designed for oily skin too. Nothing worse than an oily moisturizer on oily skin.

    You should try washing your face every morning and night. Try using facial bar soaps like neutrogena or purpose. If your skin gets too dry from it put lotion on.
