    Try the clinique 3 step system for your skin type mine is combination oily but they have oily to very oily also.

    I find it brilliant my face is radiant after using this system I wish I had started using it earlier.

    They also have an acne prone system which you could try also

    An exfoliating toner will help a lot. Clinique have one called mild toner 1, clarins have one, nip+fab (sold in boots and most pharmacies) have exfoliating pads.

    Perhaps change your routine a little: at night Double cleanse using oil/balm first (coconut, almond or olive oil) then a cleansing milk. Remove both with warm water and flannel. Then exfoliating toner, then serum (olay regenerist is very good and always on offer) then moisturiser.

    In the morning cleanse with a milk, using a warm flannel to remove, serum (again Olay is great) and moisturiser. Use a separate SPF from March to the end of October.
    Check out Caroline Hirons website. She is amazing for all things skincare related.

    This has also happened to me in the past 6 months. :(
    I have just found a routine which is keeping the oilyness at bay, for the time being.
    I would have had very good skin until it decided to really change on me and I cannot figure out why!

    Daily I use:
    Neutrogena Visibly Clear Pink Grapefuit Daily Scrub - Love the smell from this
    I use Kueshi Pure and Clean Toner - Really REALLY love this stuff too!
    Then use Effeclar Duo + on any red marks I have, this is only a new addition (bought it on saturday) and so far I think it is starting to help!
    I use 3-Luronics Anti Dark Circles Eye Cream under my eyes (I cannot reccommend this stuff enough to anybody with dark circles)

    Im now on a search for the perfect light face cream and tightening neck cream for me.
    I have received a full sample set of the Cougar beauty products daily creams and have tried the Snake Venom so far and loved it..
    I'm going to try the rest and hopefully one of those will suit me as a day cream for the remaining areas of my face before applying my makeup primer.
