Oily Face: Well paradoxically, if you using skin products that dry your skin too much, your skin may try to compensate by producing more oil.

Health Tap doctors: are asked not endorse specific brands or product lines. Egg whites are a home remedy for oily skin. Spread a whipped egg white over the skin and rinse off with warm water after it dries. This can help to tighten skin and dry acne.
