Suggest Treatment For Oily Skin
i have clusters of oil poppies on my forehead, they are extremely annoying and difficult to deal with. I have tried oil free face wash, exfoliants, salicylic acid, and benzoyl peroxide consistently but nothing has worked. I am confused, I follow an extremely healthy diet, plus, consume all of the water (and more) that i need. I am 15 years old and have no clue what is going on with my skin.
