In short, i have always had very oily skin naturally and i hate it. Ive been on the regimen for about 7 weeks now and seeing amazing improvement, not totally clear yet though. My new big issue that i will have to address is my oily skin, i hate it, and it seems even worse now for some reason, likely the drying effect of BP. Even when i use moisturizers for oily skin, my skin looks all oily and shiny after some hours. Not much help for oily skin, so i come here. Does anyone know of any vitamins or supplements that can help reduce skin oiliness? Ive heard B5 is good for oily skin and was gonna try it, but then i also heard it initially gives you new breakouts and bad skin, so i dont really want to go through that. So anything good to help oily skin with minimal side effects? Or even just anything that will reduce oily skin, ill just go through them and see what side effects they have and make decisions from there. PLEASE AND THANKS!

Honestly, as I haven't found anything over the counter or in supplement form that helps much to prevent oily skin but I manage mine with pressed powder and blotting.

That first link just takes me to the top of the FAQ page, no oily skin help. The second link did help though, might pick up some of those oil blotting sheets. But i want something that will prevent the oil production in the first place. I really want some kind of topical treatment to prevent it or maybe an "oil fighting" face moisturizer? Anything else?

Try jojoba oil, it will help decrease your sebum oil. It somehow tricks the skin.
