Hadn't really heard of using oil but will look into that. I'm so oily it doesn't sound too appealing but hell, I'll try anything.

I have some astringent with salicylic acid but it does have alcohol. I mainly use it in the summer when I feel particularly greasy. What's the problem with the alcohol?

I should probably get my face back to a dermatologist but I feel too old for this crap. I generally get a few breakouts here and there but right now I've had this one under the skin oil pocket for more than a month. I'm like a teen with the Clearasil! Ergh!

Thanks!
