I am in my 30s….i had acne when i was a teenager and always combination/oily skin with blackheads. I dont have acne anymore for years but i struggle with oily skin and blackheads. Very oily and a lot of blackheads! I am fed up and can’t look in the mirror. I have tried everything, but expensive products, cheap products, microdermabrasion for months few years ago, chemical peels. Nothing makes any changes and at the moment i cannot afford facials at the beauty salons. Some of my friends had same issues but now at our age have really alright skin. Why not me?!
any advice? Maybe something helped any of you?
fyi - my diet, drinking water, exercises are not a cause of the issue. I also dont smoke and dont drink (never had).

I find the Cerave foaming face wash really helpful

Something natural with ingredients which will make your skin hydrated but not make it too oily! I am using

a charcoal clay bar on my face, exfoliate max 2 x a week, then wash your face and apply moisturiser that doesn't clog the pores.

Have you tried steaming the face before exfoliating? It helps to open up the pores
