Witch Hazel ALWAYS made my skin break out. So did Noxema.





The best thing you can do is to wash your face every morning and every night before bed (without fail).





When my oil was at its worst, I kept a bottle of Alcohol-Free toner in my locker to use in between classes, or you can use Olay daily face wipes --





I know it doesn't make much sense, but it is really important that the product that you use NOT contain alcohol. Even if it cleans your skin, it will over-dry it and your skin will not only be red and irritated, but the natural sloughing off of your skin won't occur, and the extra skin cells that remain on your skin will clog your pores and cause more breakouts!





The most important thing is keeping your skin clean, but you have to be sure not to over-dry it in the process.





Good Luck!

Make-up may help, I would say try it during the weekend so you don't end up having something messy on your face in the middle of class.
Reply:you should most definetly discontinue using that brand of cleanser on oyur face. do go to reviews on makeupalley.com and lok up products for oily skin this has been very helpful to me. good luck!
Reply:stop using it.
Reply:Do not were makeup to school that will make it even worse. stop using that stuff and wash your face twice a day dint pick at them and try not to touch your face! good luck i hope it gets better its happened to me before with the same stuff and after i used this remedy it went away in a few days!
Reply:Just go to school with those huge red pimples on your face. It is good to be unique.
Reply:If it's doing that to your skin stop using it. You might be allergic to one of the ingredients. Also make sure you don't overwash your face. If you do it too frequently your skin produces more oil. I used to have the same problem and what I did (and still have to do) is every morning I use a cream cleanser in the shower then an astringent (I use clean and clear) that gets rid of any dirt or oil that got missed then use a lotion. At night I use a facial cloth and the lotion. My skin cleared up in about 2 weeks or so and it's been clear since and also not nearly as oily. Good luck! I know how awful this can be!
Reply:If you're breaking out after a few days of use, chances are you're allergic or sensitive to the soap. I'd suggest switching to another brand, making sure it says "non-comedogenic", which means it doesn't clog pores.





You can also talk to a dermatologist to get a recommendation on a good brand. I actually just saw one, and she recommended Cetaphil. It's over the counter, and you can get it at any drugstore. There's more than one type, so you can use one that specifies for oily skin.





Hope this helps! Good luck! :)
Reply:stop using it. you're probably allergic or have sensitive skin. if you still keep breaking out, go to a dermatologist before you do any more damage to your skin. good luck!
