How do you get rid of oily skin? i've tried everything, but it won't seem to work. i know about cleansing, toning, and moisturizing.

Can't : Your skin type can not be changed but you can modify your diet and as you've mentioned use toners to control it. If you have bad acne sometimes Accutane might be prescribed and this medicine can decrease oil gland activity. See a dermatologist if you are concerned enough about this issue.
