I used to go to a dermatologist, however when I called to schedule an appointment they told me they could no longer see me as a patient because i was not 21 and had not been there in 3 years. I tried to find a new dermatologist but i cant get an apointment until the end of august at the earliest and I cant wait that long for results!!! I have mild acne but oily skin that gets oily in about an hour or two. I have tried mattifying products but my face gets greasy again quickly. Since i do not have access to a dermatologist any advice for over the counter or natural products that would help both of my conditions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

There is a mattifier by Cosmedicine that works really well. You can find it at Sephora (ebay has this, too, quite often). The other is a product by Smashbox, it's one of the primers, I can't recall the name. A friend uses this for her oiliness

Monistat powder gel for mattifying.

What kind of topical have you used for your mild acne and was it successfull?

There are certain conditions that a person can suffer from which need more than an over the counter lotion or remedy. There are certain skin conditions which can be helped only by a dermatologist. Certain typical skin conditions such as acne or dry skin can be so severe that a dermatologist may need to prescribe a prescription strength medication.
To learn more about type of acne and their remedies you shall skim through skincarewebinfo(DOT)com. I hope it will be of some help.

You can use Bare Minerals foundation to cover up acne and scars. This will help you look your best until your visit to dermatologists.
