...and tell me if you see any oily residue on the paper. I want to see how my facial skin compares to other people in the oilyness department. I want to see if I am a freak or am normal. Thanks.

BTW, in my case, I do see an oily residue on the paper...

People that have oil skin naturally, will always look younger when they are older. ;)

<< Quit eating greasy food and chocolate and your TP will get whiter. >>

Wrong. I rarely eat either and I still get a greasey forhead.

Oily skin has nothing to do with what you eat. Most of the time it's gentics. Other possible causes of this is not washing your face good enough. Another cause is actually washing your face too much or with very harsh soap. This can cause your body to produce too much oil because your washing it away too much. Hope that helps

I've had an oily forehead ever since highschool. There was this one time during class that this girl (whom I had a major crush on) said, &quot;Man, you have the shiniest forehead I have ever seen!&quot;, loud enough for the whole class to hear. :eek:

I'm hoping that one day I will grow out of it...

(I'm 23)

I usually just wash my face once a day when I take a shower. I don't use any soap on my face, but I suppose some shampoo probably washes across it. The natural oils you produce are no problem, just use warm water. It helps if you have a water softener though, or if you have fair skin like me (Redhair) you might get dry patches. I would most likely see a bit of oil on the paper.

I bottly my oil off my forehead at the end of the day and sell it to the PETA people for lamp oil.
