Why is this happening, how can I get it to stop?!


Question: Why is this happening, how can I get it to stop?
Every day I wash my face with soap and water, sometimes multiple times a day, but after I do my face gets greasy/oily after only a few hours.Is there something I can do to help, or is it normal? Is there something with food I eat that could be causing it/can a diet change fix it? I'm part Italian too, if that matters, like maybe it's a genetic thing.

Your face is trying to even out its homeostasis that you disrupted. Oils and such on your face are meant to be there. Your body gets rid of these things by flushing it out your pores. Thus the layer of "shine" you see. Its totally normal. Everyone has this, though some more intense than others. It's not always a certain TYPE of food, more just the wastes that your body is trying to get rid of. I know that Proactiv? really helps with that sort of thing. I use it all the time.

Hope this helps :)

I ruined my skin this week washing it..I had used Vaseline Petroleum Jelly on my face..
It took some extreme washing to remove it..I thought it had collected dirt..
So..I can only say..back off on the face cream--it soaks in.
