So what the skin has to do is to compensate by producing more oil and so the skin does end up actually being even more oilier than before.

You should only wash your face once in the morning and once in the evening and no more than that.

If you find that your oily skin is causing spots that you should consider using a suitable product to help kill off any bacteria.

Using a face mask designed for oily skin will also prove to be useful as this will help to perform a deep cleanse and to lift away any bacteria deep from within the pores.

When you return to sleep the next evening, you skin will then be in contact with any oil that has been soaked by your pillow. So changing and making sure that you have clean pillow cases is something very simple that you can do.
