Introduction to Special Care for oily Acne Prone Skin:
An oily skin type tends to be the most prone to acne due to open pores and an oily surface. Oily Acne Prone Skin is due to the over production of this oily substance called sebum that is produced by the oil gland in the lower layer of the skin; breakouts of pimples and blackheads seem to be inevitable.
Although you may feel that you want to take a drastic approach to this issue with rigorous cleaning of the skin; you should know that over cleansing can increases the oil glands and produce more sebum. In addition; over-cleansing can leave the surface layers of your skin dry and dehydrated. Yes, you can have dry, dehydrated, oily skin.
The approach towards special care for oily skin:
It is important to use products that gently cleanse away oils from the surface and unblock the pores without drying out and damaging the skin.
Step 1: The first step in your daily acne-fighting routine is to use a gentle foaming facial wash. A foaming wash; unlike soap, will remove grime, dirt and oil without stripping away moisture from your skin (moisture and oil are different).
Try Clearskin® Blemish Clearing Foaming Cleanser
This daily foaming gel cleanser, with Blemish Busting Technology, reduces acne size, and the appearance of redness and swelling. Helps control excess oil and leaves skin looking cleaner.

TO USE • Wet hands and face with warm water. Squeeze an appropriate amount of product onto wet hands. Lather onto skin with a gentle, circular motion, and leave on for 30 seconds. Rinse with warm water and gently pat dry. May be used once a day. If bothersome dryness, irritation or peeling occurs, reduce application to every other day.
This clear, blue effective astringent, with Blackhead Clarifying Technology, cleanses away excess oil and traces of dirt and debris to help keep blackheads under control. Leaves skin feeling toned, refreshed and purified. For best results, use with Blackhead Eliminating Daily Cleanser and Deep Treatment Mask. 8.4 fl. oz.

• Dermatologist-tested TO USE • Cleanse skin thoroughly before applying medication. Moisten cotton ball and cover the entire affected area one to three times a day. Gently work cotton ball over face and neck. Do not rinse. Because excessive drying of the skin may occur, start with one application daily, then gradually increase to two to three times a day if needed or as directed by a doctor. If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to once a day or every other day.
Step 3 – Even oily skin needs moisture and a moisturizer will help seal water into the top layers to keep skin soft and supple. Choose a light, fluid lotion. There are many choices of lotion to choose from, but my recommendation would be the following. This would be my choice if you are needing to reduce pores. Be sure to continue to the end of the post for more recommendations.
