Do you wear glasses by any chance? My problem is that I will get the oil on my hands and then push up my glasses or scratch my nose, transfering the oil there.

Since starting Atkins my skin has greatly improved. I still don't like eating some fatty meats as they leave that oily feeling on my face. I also use Nutragena skin clearing makeup which helps.

Remember not to overscrub your face or use soap to clean it when it feels oily. That will dry it out and your skin will start producing more oil to compensate and make the problem much worse. Just clean it in shower in morning and to take makeup off at night. If you have problems in between get bloating cloths and apply light layer of a non-oily makeup.
