Go to cosmetic: Counter at a major retailer such as macy's, sak's, or bloomingdales, where each cosmetic vendor has trained personnel to help you with your skin type and cosmetic requests. Ask for hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic formulations and products that can absorb excess oils. Certain soaps/washes can increase or decrease the production of skin oils also; don't use soap! see derm for acne consultation!
