If you love the feeling of splashing on a skin toner, that is great. Better yet, use a cotton ball to apply it for better results and to reduce skin oiliness & prevent oily skin. Just as cleansers containing salicylic acid are most effective at removing oils, so are toners that contain salicylic or other acidic ingredients. However, some astringent toners may irritate the skin and can lead to more oil production. But if you like using them, they can be applied just to the oily areas like the nose, chin and forehead.
Obagi CLENZIderm M.D. Pore Therapy is a toner-like solution that is applied preferable with a cotton ball or the provided pad that is sometimes included. It does an excellent job to unclog pores and clear dead skin cells. It also prepares skin to deeply absorb a liquified serum that targets acne at its source. Its 2% Salicylic acid eliminates residue on the skin and minimizes blemishes.
THis CLENZIderm M.D. Pore Therapy is the #2 step in a 3 step regimen created by Obagi that is specifically formulated to work together to provide optimal results for oily skin & acne.
Here are some helpful tips for Oily Skin Care. Cleansing your face every morning and every night is the most effective way to improve 
oily skin, BUT all cleansers are not created equal. Cleansers that are too creamy may not cleanse oily skin well enough, and tend to clog pores. The opposite can occur when using harsh soaps or buff puffs by irritating skin or actually triggering the skin to increase oil production. So what are some good solutions?
Obagi Clenziderm M.D. Systems has the best answer for oily skin & acne. It offers products that target the root of oily skin & acne to clear skin fast and help maintain a clear and healthy complexion. There are two cleansers. First Obagi Clenziderm Daily Care Foaming Cleanser which removes dirt and excess oil with 2% salicylic acid, leaving skin clean & refreshed. 2% Salicylic acid gentle washes away dead skin cells to reveal healthier skin. Menthol cools & calms irritated skin. Second is Obagi Clenziderm Daily Care Cream Cleanser which is a gentle, nonsoap cleanser that also removes dirt & excess oil, and is better suited for skin that is dryer.
You’ll get a better oily skin care by choosing either of these.
