Your face wash is stripping your skin of its natural oil which is then making it produce more oil. I used to have very oily skin despite eating very healthily.
-Use a natural olive oil based soap for your face.
-Apply apple cider vinegar mixed with water (1/2 each) to your skin after washing, every second day or so. Let sit for a few minutes then rinse with cool water. This balances ph level, tones, exfoliates.
-After washing (and optionally using apply cider vinegar) apply a very small amount of coconut oil to moisturize, this balances face oil production. (Leave it on for a little while then lightly rinse with just water if you feel its too oily, you can just leave it overnight though.) I do this every morning. Look up the benefits of coconut oil for skin online.
This routine cleared my acne and oily skin within a few weeks. I have never had any acne since I started doing this 5 years ago. Credit to Shannon who first told me about coconut oil back then.
