71 and my skin is as oily or oilier as it was at age 16. I live with a lot of stress, I don’t eat enough vegetables for fiber. I use 2% salicylic acid toner to clean my face morning and night because it keeps zits away. I do drink a lot of water because I have chronic kidney disease. I will try your tips-thanks.
Going on a low carb diet was the best thing I did for my skin. I couldn't even use a moisturizer before that because it would make my acne worse, I guess since the bacteria was already growing the moisture let it grow faster. Now that my skin is less oily I can use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer, which further reduces the oiliness of the skin
I can't thank you enough I'm really glad I've found this I've spend a lot of money on cream and serums without looking at my diet I'm gonna follow your tips thanks again ❤❤
I really really liked how you explained everything so well. The one about diary products having IGF-1 is such a great tip! I hope this works out for me. I’ve had oily, shiny skin since puberty 😢
did you overcome acne or oily skin yourself? Because it seems to just be a trend to tell everyone, just leave out every thing you eat so you can cure ur problem, today... Sugar okay, Dairy.. maybe. But cunsume saturated fat like coconut oil. Nah. For most ppl it is genes and Hormoes. Plus proven tips? were are the studies. the fun fact is, there is non to be found on exaclty these two topics Acne and oily skin and what contributes to it.
dude if you actually want cleaner skin use cerave sa cleanser 3 times daily , cerave moisturizing lotion every time you wash your face so 3 times also and start using retinoids in the night before bed and a physical sunscreen combined with a hat for maximum uv protection . dont waste your time with this less sugar more fiber unbreakable healing crystal stuff . u actually need to remove all oil that isnt inside of the skin. meaning all oil that fills the pours of the skin else it will either harden and block the pours causing acne or bacteria get involved and consume it producing white waste and also clogging the pour causing acne. then simplay moisturize the skin using a good moisturizer. lastly start with over the counter retinoids and work your way up to getting a perscription for accutane if you are still getting any acne at all after 6 months. accutane permanently reduces the amount of oil that the skin makes which makes it easier to remove all excess oils and thus physically prevents acne.
@@blank0the0new91I did some research and a lot of people say that after stopping accutane the oily skin returned 😔 I also doubt doctors would prescribe me accutane just to help against oiliness. I had dry skin usually but I did no moisture therapy for a while meaning I didn’t wash my face with water for like 1 or 2 weeks since I was dealing with contact dermatitis/eczema and now my face has been oily since. I just want my old face back but I know it will never happen anymore. I just wish there was something simple I could do 1 daily to atleast make it somewhat better.
My period is when my skin actually clears up. My monthly breakout happens at ovulation. I've been tracking my LH levels and it happens every month within a day or 2 of my LH surge. Seems hormonal to me.
I am worried that Oat Milk is high glycemic load / highly refined, can you make a video about this? Based on your video I think high carbohydrates could be a reason for my oily skin --- fascinating!!! Thanks for this video!
I'm not a fan of oat milk! Some of my favorite plant milks are Three Trees Almond Milk, Forager Cashew Milk, and Lavva Plant Milk - Or try this recipe for the easiest and tastiest hoemmade almond milk: mariamarlowe.com/recipe/best-almond-milk-recipe-ever/
Plz talk about ingredients stop oil production Not food not strip the oil not that all There is gland produce too much oil We need something to stop this
After 20 years of Pain in the a.s.s research into extreme oily skin and my conclusion is this… Mitochondria dysfunction and Krebs cycle dysfunction, is the difference between someone who eats whatever they like and doesn’t have oily skin, and those who are on eggshells eating carefully praying they don’t look like an oily slick. Focus ur attention on the above two areas of dysfunction, and drop subcutaneous body fat. Hey presto oily skin is no more. You’re welcome
Could you into more detail pls ? What exactly can I do to get rid of greasy skin ? I didn’t wash my face (no moisture therapy) not even with water for like 2 weeks and since my skin has become extremely greasy. Idk what to do about it it’s so depressing I don’t even go outside anymore 😔
@@Dan24.to help you in the meantime use blotting paper and a clay cleanser will buy u some hours at best. At least u can then go out right. But these are really temporary fixes, oily skin is 70% made of triglycerides, the same thing that we store in large amounts as body fat. Some ppl with very very oily skin are not using fat as energy efficiency and it ends up constantly in high amounts in the blood and u bet it finds ways to load up in places it shouldn’t. Like under the skin as subcutaneous fat. 1. Have less cutaneous fat (the source) 2. Have more mitochondria and stronger mitochondrial function like the pac man game constantly working hard to keep those lvls of triglycerides at low lvls and out of ur bloodstream Essentially diet and exercise and a few key supplements, b5 + l carnitine + green tea…. The diet drops the body fat, the exercise gets the mitochondria working hard and eventually increasing in number, and the supplements plug a few holes in the process of fat oxidation that I believe help the process. Personally I also do hot and cold conversion therapy via sauna and cold water to further aid the mitochondria recovery process. The above will get rid of oily skin, it’s not easy but it works
@@Fab666.so I have to eat less fat in general and exercise more? And is every fat including coconut/olive/nuts bad or just seed oils? Sorry my first language isn‘t English. Thank you :)
@@Fab666.Well, I seem to check all of your three boxes except the one about taking supplements. I've never really taken any medication per se for this specific skin condition. That said, I've been on oral contraceptives a few times as part of my treatment for another medical condition. Which kinda did help with acne and scar/spot reduction but came right back on once I was off em. I've been eating clean, doing cardio( at least 3 days a week) and have cut out all junk. I do, however, occasionally have some- maybe like thrice a month. But that is it. I fixed my sleep cycle. Getting adequate sleep, which I'm certain goes a long way in keeping zits away. I just can't seem to figure out a way to get oil production on my face under control. Like you said, dieting might not be a sustainable solution. I believe, healthy eating is. And it should be okay to have your comfort food (even if its plain junk) occasionally imo. I mean, realistically, is there anything else I can do to permanently stop excessive oil secretion on my face?
@@Fab666.I'm sorry, just realizing that was a bit of a longass rant. Bottom line, is there anything I can do, thru natural remedies, to address the issue besides dieting and exercising? Cuz in my case I'm pretty subcutaneous fat isn't the reason and I cannot, for the life of me, figure out where on earth all that bloody oil is coming from. Will appreciate your insights. Thanks
I have low blood sugar and for this reason I consume a lot of dairy, sugar and carbohydrate.what should i eat during the day then? A lot of the things she says i cannot find them in italy..i eat pasta and pizza almost every single day 😂
Please can you help me? I have spots on my face my face is not that bad if it act normal but whenever i wash my face with mild cleansers or only with water after sometime my face became red and oily i have tried using moisturizer but it didn't help me , i have used salysalic acid soap in past with lukewarm water and i think that have ruined my face now i am helpless nothing work on me , my face isn't that bad but , i am unable to understand why is this happening.
It could just be hormonal depending on your age. Sometimes, no matter what you use or do, it might feel like nothing helps. I went through a similar experience and visited a dermatologist who prescribed tretinoin and clindamycin, but they didn't make a significant difference. What eventually helped me was just giving my skin time to naturally process the hormonal acne as I grew up. However, the one thing that did help with fluctuations in my acne during that time was the De La Cruz Acne Mask and the Paulas Choice 2% BHA exfoliator. It might be worth trying as part of your skincare routine (just do test spots w the products beforehand in case your skin has a reaction and turns red).
Have been having breakout for like 2 month and It giving me pimples am so tired don’t know what to do about it took drug and some skincare products but not working so I have to stop using it and I also have a very sensitive and oily skin please ma help thank u
There is truth in this, I see it everywhere with the people I work with. They have a diet of fast food, candy, desserts and carbs and sugar, play video games and get no exercise and have flawless skin. Meanwhile, here I am have cut out carbs and sugar, been on keto/ carno diet for months and STILL cant get rid of oily skin, acne and all the dermatitis on my face...
I used to have skin that was pretty much flawless but then I got into skin care and ruined it all myself. I over exfoliated my face and now my nose and surrounding skin is oily and greasy it looks so bad 😔 I lose all confidence and don’t even want to go outside anymore

I am from India, watching your video helped me, thank you so much
Glad it was helpful!
Very well-explained. Will try applying these tips into my lifestyle to see if it works.
Turns out that one of the medications I'm on depletes the body of zinc, once I added zinc to my diet my sebum production normalized.
Thanks for sharing that! Zinc is an important nutrient for clear skin and normal oil production.
What kind of zinc and what mg? Heard it also depletes copper levels.
I can't thank you enough
