How can I prevent my face from getting so greasy causing acne?
After I work out, or when i even get the slightest bit hot,my face becomes a grease ball! In the morning when I flatiron my hair right after i take a shower, my face gets soooo greasy! I wear hydogen perioxide (oxy) every night. I also wash my face 2 times a day twice. My parents won't let me buy any other face products. I do have face wash, and use it twice a week (following instructions). what should i do? I have really bad acne, and i dont know how i get it? I wash my face a lot, and put on acne treatment creme on. My hair sometimes gets greasy too, so i have to wash it everyday, really scrubing. Maybe should I take a shower twice a day? Will that make me cleaner, and will that help? When I tell my parents the acne cream dosen't hellp they say,"yes it does i know it does, how do you know it dosen't". Please I am gonna have terrible scars later on, please help!!! Should I persuade my parents more! PLEASE HELP, I HATE THIS ACNE PROBLEM!

Hello,
You sound alot like me. You should go see a dermatologist before you start to get acne scars. Washing your face two times a day is enough, no more then twice a day. Yes, I think you should persuade your parents more. if your acne is really bad, I recommend you trying accutane. It has serious side effects, but it works for some people. Maybe you can try proactive this is also a good product. I know exactly how you feel. I got acne at the age of 13, and now 21 still suffering from it. I hope you find something that works for you. Goodluck

The grease is more likely a result of the acne as opposed to a cause of it.

Do you use moisturizing cream? If you wash all the natural oils off your face, than you’ll just get more. Your parents should let you get a sunscreen for your face. It will help prevent against skin cancer. Get the oil free stuff. Neutregina makes really good stuff. I have proactive, but that’s the mositurizer i use. It was about $11 at Walmart last time I bought it, and a tube will last me between 9 months and a year when I use it every morning.

try putting lemon on your face. or ice. just apply it on face and wait for 20 minutes before rinsing. it will control the oil. too much ice though can dry the skin so i suggest the lemon.

Lemon juice and olive oil.
I have greasy skin too and was very reluctant to use olive oil.
I was like I have enough oil on my face but apparently, The Olive oil will make your skin think it has already produced the oil that it is trying to replace when it becomes over oily.
I rub lemon juice on my face (FRESH LEMON JUICE)
just cut it open and squeeze some in your hand.
Then dab it on rub it in. Leave it on and apply the olive oil.
Dab it on with your finger tips. let it sit for as long as you want.
I do this on a lazy day so I can leave it on for hours.
If you need to do it quick, Leave it on for 15 min. then wash it off.
I have been doing this for a month and a half and this guy told me my skin was glowing. I was like "WHAT?" my skin has never glowed. But I went and looked in the mirror and was like "WOW!"
I have not been using anything but that for a month and a half.
I also wash my face with homemade lye soap that I ordered on line.
That lemon juce thing work for your hair too.
GOOD LUCK.
