    Oily Nose & Shine

    Milk of Magnesia does work and a thin layer can be appllied neat to the skin without problem, only thing I've found is after a while your skin gets used to it and becomes oily again so best as an occassional solution - other thing is a translucent face powder, might sound a bit girly for us men...

    Panthothenic acid/Vitamin B5

    Its overrated in my view - you have to take a very large quantity of B5 to have any effect and long term it just is not sustainable - taking a large amount of one vitamin unbalances others. B5 supplements can be purchased on line but as I say I dont think its really a solution. Initially it may...

    Such bad luck!

    You could try dabbing Manuka Honey (UMF 15+) on the marks, In my experience there is nothing better for reducing redness, swelling & promoting healing without overdrying.

    panoxyl acnegel

    I would suggest you use the 2.5% concentration (no higher), you may still experience about 2-3 days of red skin but this quickly subsides, long term use requires use of a moisteriser.

    Milk of Magnesia for skin?

    Hi, Apply it early morning and have oil free skin for longer, I'm not sure how or why it works but I stopped using it in the end because my skin seemed to get used to it and started producing more oil... however that could be just me - good luck to you

    Very oily skin type--what can help?

    Try applying a thin layer of Milk of Magnesia (i.e. the indigestion stomach remedy) to your skin, I find it really works...... well unless you overuse it then your skin gets used to it.... also notice that virtually every so called "medicated" shine treatment contains the active ingredient Magnesia
