What is a good brand of astringent for oily skin that tends to break out?

Neutrogena has a good one for oily skin. If you're willing to spend $11.00, the best I've found is Mary Kay's Blemish control toner. Since I've started using it I haven't had a problem with break outs, and I used to get them all the time. I've tried everything from Clinique to Lancome to Estee Lauder, and this is the best out there. Good luck.

Triple Astringen it is perfect for my oliy skin!
Reply:Kiehls makes some great astringents for a variety of skin types, and clinique makes a really good astringent/toner. Ofcourse, witch hazel is always the cheapest way to go.
Reply:I have tried many and here is a good one for combination/ sensitive/ break-out prone skin wich is what i have. I currently use Alba Organics hibiscus facial toner. You can find it pretty easily in in health food or organic type stores. It comes in a hawaiian looking plastic bottle and it only runs you around $12.00 dollars or so for a 8.5 oz bottle.
Reply:intaglio--its a professional brand;i get mine through a wholesale shop and its about 20 bucks a bottle. a little expensive but its worth it
Reply:I love Biore and Clinique brand astringents. If you don't already have a skincare regimen, maybe you could start one. The skin on your face doesn't take change very well, so find the cleansers, astringents, moisturizers that work best for you and stick to them. Also, make sure you drink plenty of water, never wear makeup to bed and change your pillowcases frequently.
Reply:i have oily skin that breaks out all the time and after using astringents for the longest time, i realized what harm it did to my skin.





astringent strips off the oil off ur face so it gets rid of ur NATURAL oil as well.





at first, ur skin will feel tight and kinda dry and flaky but after a while ur skin will produce MORE AND MORE oil and pretty soon u'll get oil-overload.





so its best to stick with something gentler and not so harsh. i recently switched to a gentle toner (not astringent) with witch hazel (proactive revitilizing toner) and it worked a lot better. but after i ran out of that, i bought the cooling daily pore toner from clean and clear and that works REALLY well too. it doesn't dry out my skin (even though it contains some alcohol and salicycal acid like most astringents do).





so i advise u to switch to a gentle toner. and try it out for a while. :]





clean and clear cooling daily pore toner!!
Reply:Clean %26amp; Clear makes a good one for oily/sensitive skin. It's blue. You can find it at most drug stores.
