Male with oily skin and large pores seeks advice on skin care.?

I'm male, 37 and have always had very oily skin. My pores on my face and large and I often find blackheads. Now I have found some information on what to do here at these sites:

but questions remain:


Are the AHA products good for me and if so is that the mild cleanser I use 3 times a day?


Is there a manly clay-based face mask? When during the day should that be applied?


Should the astringent be used after each washing and is that before or after the moisturizer?


I'm obviously confused by the regimen and order of things.


When should I expect to see a difference?Male with oily skin and large pores seeks advice on skin care.?
Here is what I have recommended for my boys.





First wash your face every day. I try to get them to use something like Desert Essence Face Wash. It has tea tree oil in it. Three times might be too much ... I would suggest in the morning and at night. A good moisturizer in the am will help keep you from getting stuff in your pores.





We also keep a bottle of witch hazel at the sink and cotton make up pads (not cotton balls). This is good for quick swipes when needed. TN Dickinson's is a good brand. They also make presoaked pads if you are travelling.





Desert Essence also has cleansing pads. I usually don't let my boys use them as often because they are a little more expensive than just washing....





And lastly Desert Essence makes a blemish touch up stick. Burts Bees also makes one but my boys like the Desert Essence one better.





They also like the biore strips which will pull blackheads and other stuff from the pores.





Once a week or so I use a mask from MD formulations ... the illuminating masque which helps minimize pores. This should be available at Ulta. The other products should be at your local coop or whole foods or wild oats depending on where you live.





Now, this might sound crazy to you as a man, but you might want to investigate something like bare minerals make up. It is a powder which is buffed on. It is usually so shear that most people cannot even tell and it covers problem areas as well as protects your skin. ....

Patchouli oil. You can apply it to your skin and it's great. Try googling about using patchouli oil on your face, that is what I use for my oil/acne prone skin and it's great.
An oily skin , as the name implies, is one in which the sebaceous or oil-producing glands are over active. As surface grease tends to attract dirt, an oily skin acquires a dirty surface film , that needs to be removed daily. For more details log to http://useinfo-oilyskin.blogspot.com/
