I feel like a teenager and it is very embarrassing to have a shiny nose all day long, even when I put make up on.  Does anyone knows about a good solution for my problem ps3 02-16-2011 @ 12:15 PM                           reply Member Joined: Apr 2008 It is perfectly normal but if it is bothering you way too much go to the dermatologist or try Tea tree oil which is supposed to close the pores and get rid of the oil… or try to change your diet.  Whenever washing you face, don’t massage it too much because the friction produces more oil.  Good luck!

If you have dry skin you are more likely to get wrinkles earlier. If you have oily skin, you'll stay wrinkle free for longer. I've always had shiny skin, and still get the odd spot now and then. Just use powder and make sure you clean your skin with products that aren't too harsh. Funnily enough I tried Simple products and they dried out my skin and then it overcompensated by becoming extra oily!
