With oily skin, you must walk a fine line between keeping your skin dry without over-drying it. Skin that is too dry - such as feeling taut after washing your face - will produce too much oil to recover its moisture. Always keep your face moisturized to prevent the overproduction of oil. There are products you can use to mattify your skin during the day, such as blotting papers and mineral makeup that prevents oily skin. My favorite is Mineral Veil by Bare Essentials.
