Do potato chips and milk make the face oily? my skin has gotten oily and the only thing that i could think caused it was my diet. or is it stress?

No: One usually cannot blame oily skin on foods or drinks unless the oil goes away when a particular food is stopped, and returns when the food is resumed. Potato chips are unnecessary and can be stopped, if one wants to see if that helps. Milk is important for calcium, vitamin D, protein... meaning milk shouldn't be stopped unless one has a good substitute. "Stress" can lead to a variety of symptoms.

NO and NO: Acne is not much related to food or stress. Since potato chips are one of the worst things you can eat, you should not indulge in them very much for other reasons. Why Benadryl? Sleep aid? Oily face related mostly to genetics, hormones, activities, meds.
