Astringent. Keep it very clean. And be glad you have oily skin, because if you are young your face will not wrinkle as badly as you age.
Back in the day, I too had oily skin. I found using a light moisturizer seem to cut down on some of the oil and that products and soaps to reduce the oil just seemed to make it worse. Thriftyvicki is right; as you age, your skin will stay more wrinkle free. Remember that smoking causes wrinkles. Eating a healthy diet will help too.
Lemon juice is good for oily skin as a facial. My friend is from India and she makes a mask of lemon cucumber and other stuff, but the lemon juice of a real lemon is for the oily skin.
My face has always been oily. When I was pregnant, it got so bad that it would literally drip oil off my chin! The best thing I found was to wipe my face with a cotton ball soaked in isopropyl alcohol. In my 20s, during the summer & when I was pregnant, I wiped it several times a day.
From my 30's on, I only did it a couple of times a day. My bedtime routine is to use a water dampened wash cloth with just a bit of alcohol on it, to wipe my face down-you'd be amazed at the dirt that comes off!
Oily skin is a pain, but it will keep you looking younger as you age & it does get better. I can tell you by experience, you don't want dry skin! I had 2 surgeries in 2 months & the anesthesia gave me dry skin & hair for a couple of months & it was torture-very uncomfortable!
