    Oily skin on guys?

    girls is oily skin on guys unattractive?

    I have this skin type for example, the oily skin shows more on this type of skin, even my hair is similar to this person, these days in the summer whenever i am outside, both my skin and hair get oily. In winters my skin/hair is dry

    My suggestion: Wash you hair every morning and get yourself some blotting paper (found at any cosmetic counter) for your oily skin which you can take with you and use throughout the day. The hair on the guy in the photo is not "oily" he has product on it and theres a huge difference in dirty oily hair to product filled hair (even when it's got too much product in it, it's still clean and smelling pleasant). To me, oily skin and hair are not attractive.

    Agreed. Oily skin and hair are a sign that a person doesn't look after themselves to me.

    I agree with the blotting papers, those things can be magic! Oily skin isn´t really a turn-on, but that is an easy and quick way to take care of it!

    I have oily skin on my face and I hate it. I can wash my face with soap and water every 2 hours, and that just barely keeps up with it. I shower every day and am a very clean person. If I workout, I shower again. It's just the way my skin is.

    That's one thing I wish I could change about me. But I have other good things that make up for that.

    Get the blotting papers.

    If you cant get the blotting paper try witch hazel in liquid form to clean your face with every night and morning it will help clear your pores and uplift any dirt in them.
