I think having an oily face contributes to my acne. How can one tell if their face is too oily?

This is really based off of how the individual feels about their face. If you have problems that come with having too much oil, like acne, then I would say that if your forehead and nose are getting oily within 3 hours of washing it, you might need to see a Dermatologist to see if there are things we can do to help get the oil under better control = get your acne under control.

There is no set way. We look for the shine and feel to see if a patient is oily.
