I tend to sweat a lot from my nose. I think i have too many pores in that area. pimples (not really pimples i think.. but bumps filled with the white stuff, i forgot what its called)
Sorry maybe that's too much detail but what are ways to make your nose less oily? Washing them everyday doesn't seem to work.

do you use a really thick lotion?

anyways I would suggest a good ole scrub that helps exfoliate your skin; it'll help clean your pores out. do it maybe once a day in the shower or something because you want to avoid drying your skin out , which in turn will make your skin secret more oil which then results in more clogged pores! not what you want

there are also certain oil soaking papers I think? you just wipe whichever area you want and it'll suck up some of the oil.

don't worry too much about it because most teenagers (are you one?) go through a period in their life where hormones and whatnot contribute to these things, it should get better over time along with some useful products.

Hey, yeah there is.. i use this i love the smell, and it gives me soft, non oily skin. Im not advertising but yeah anyway that you should find it at walgreens or something its not that expensive and its a moisturizer you rub it in on your face daily and it does works to my skin.. wooh. i feel like mad refreshed after. you should get it.

edit;

get something like this

but its usually in a circle shaped and its like a dry wipe and you add water and you clean your face with it.. that takes the oil/and cleans your pores.

i am currently an 18 year old male.
I remember asking my sister for one of those face wipes that cleans the oil off your face and she freaked out and said "that's for girls! no!"

it's been like this for years.
I don't use lotion and i don't have an acne problem.

So i'm giong to share something that will probably seem really nasty to you guys:
SOMETIMES when a bump/small pimple appears on my nose.
I try to pop it but a solid white thing usually comes out and it leaves a small hole on my nose.

that might not make any sense but, i don't think it's normal.
anyways, it usually heals.
Sorry if that's too digusting and too much info for you.

Thats completely normal. I'm a guy, and that happens to me too. Its just the pus from the zit. I don't know the medical terms lol.

I got that once... ew. lol Yeah i popped it because i got so mad because i was going to see my boyfriend and it popped up out of no where.. and i had a red spot on my nose after. but cover up works.. if you wanna you know try that. lol im playing try the carrot thing i sent you. it works. and no the facial wipes are for anyone. just dont get the scented ones..

hm ok thanks!
But i don't want to do it everyday(or every week) for years..
Does it just become less severe and eventually go away as you start using them?

Yeah. I recommend Proactiv. Thats what I use to get rid of acne when I actually remember to use it.

[edit] Nvm. :P

I've used some ance products on it before and they don't seem to help throughout the day.

Do it for like a few weeks or a month and a half.. and it should go away.. but you still need to clean your face daily.. so it wont come back oily.. i mean you know clean it in the shower or on your own you know you need to keep it clean.. especially if you sweat alot from your nose..

haha ok thanks.
I do clean my nose though.. :P
once i thought about using dish washing liquid
I wasn't too serious about that, it was just a thought

Ill try your method though.

Lol yeah i dont think so.. well yeah good luck.
