    Aloe vera will not moisturise your skin. You need a proper hydrant and protectant for your skin. Find a good crème that is for oily skin and find a good pore minimizing serum. Try brands like Estee Lauder, Ella Bache, Clinique. They all have very reputable skin care regimes that you could try. Best of luck :)

    Hi there, I'm a Beauty Therapist and I have oily skin too. You should be cleansing your face and neck morning and evening. If you use a good cleanser you shouldn't need to tone afterwards. Exfoliate gently once or twice a week. You must use an oil free moisturiser even though your skin is greasy, if you keep your skin hydrated, it won't be trying to compensate with it's own oils. Make sure that you are drinking enough water and exersising too. Dermalogica is an excellent brand of professional skin care, it can be a little pricey but a little goes a long way. I would recommend going to see a Dermalogica Skin Therapist, who would be able to prescribe exactly what your skin needs by examining it thouroghly and giving you loads of advice. Every cloud has a silver lining, people with oilier skin tones tend to age better (fewer fine lines and wrinkles) lol. Hope this all helps x
