Actually as daft as it sounds ,the worst thing you can do for greasy skin is to try and dry it out as it causes the skin to produce more and more oil .
The best thing is to add artificial oil /moisture to the skin then that slows down the skins own production and then it dries out naturally ,in my experience anyway0 -
Wow i've always used shower gels for my face in the shower everyday and never thought it could be drying :eek:
I do suffer from dry patches even though i'm predominently oily...better find something else then see if it changes dryness.0
