What is the best cosmetics for oily skin and adult acne?

I have never had breakouts until the last year or so. My face is oily and the pores on my cheeks and chin are large. I need to know the best cleansing products and makeup. I have heard it is best to use products from the same line. It is horrible. I have blackheads. I never had one zit as a teen and now I am a mess.What is the best cosmetics for oily skin and adult acne?
Hi there. I started having adult acne last year although throughout my teens, I had small acne (more like whiteheads, tiny pimples). First of all, if you have the medical insurance, go see your dermatologist and discuss the proper methods on how to deal with your acne. He or she can help determine what level of acne you have (mild, moderate or severe). Usually adult acne is formed because of hormones. It's best to avoid foods or drinks that can affect your hormones and make it worse. Second, if you can't afford a dermatologist, try to use one of the three acne solvers: 1) Proactive Solution: I use this because it has really cleared up my skin and made me happy BUT it can be very strong and can dry out your skin if you don't use it moderately (start using twice a day and then go down to once a day if you need to). Proactive is expensive but worth trying. Proactive has their own skin cosmetics line too, designed to go with their products. 2)Neutrogena: you can buy this at any drugstore. It's fairly reasonably priced and a few of my friends say they like the Oil Free-Acne Wash. Like Proactive, Neutrogena also has cosmetics that help for your skin...use the water based ones only, oil free and they also have a mineral powder that is good for your skin. 3) Go simple and use whatever you think is best: sometimes all you need is a good oily skin routine: I have tried Kiehls, they have great skin care line for oily skin: The Foaming,Non-Detergent Wash for your face, The Calendula Toner with no Alcohol, and the Sodium PCA Moisturizer. It's expensive but worth it.


Or, just simply use Cetaphil, with a light toner and a good moisturizer with SPF. If you use any acne products, you need to use a SPF moisturizer because sun is not good for your acne and the chemicals you may be using.


Everyone's skin is different so you may want to test a few products out to see if they work for you. Also, if you do this, don't test it for only a few days...try a week or two to test for results. Then if it does not work, you need to wait a week or two before trying something else (don't use anything at this time your skin needs to heal and recover).


Get plently of exercise and drink lots of water, take Vitamin C and eat a healthy good diet with low fat foods, fresh veggies, and fruits, lean meats and nuts.


Good luck!Sometimes acne just goes away with time...if not...there is always a way to clear it up. Be patient and don't get discouraged. :) Do research and try to get samples to avoid paying lots of money for something that may not work.


JUST REMEMBER: what works for others may not work for you but given the right product and condition of your skin, you will find what works best for you!What is the best cosmetics for oily skin and adult acne?
I used Clearasil Daily Face wash on my extremely oily skin for years. I finally had to go to a dermatologist. He wrote me a script for basically the same thing just in a stronger form. If you can't see a dermatologist (which I recommend) then try that Clearasil Daily Face wash. I sometimes mixed it with a little bit of medicated apricot scrub and that helps too. Don't use alcohol after washing, use Sea breeze or a good toner. Bare Minerals is great make up for acne/oily prone skin. Its a little pricy but a tiny bit of that stuff goes a long way. You can get a starter kit for around $60 at Sephoria.com


Good luck!
though i have no experience of cosmetics(i am extremly hetrosexual) i can say by knowledge that you should use organic or herbal products.





As for the acne from experience i know that acne 101E getaway is by far the best product for any type of acne.
