The following answer comes from the Acne Help Guide.

Answer

First, understand that oily skin is NOT only caused by the foods that you eat, but it's also caused by these reasons as well...

Causes of Oily Skin

  • Hormone Levels.
  • Never washing your face.
  • Pregnancy.
  • Topical Treatments you use.
  • Makeup.
  • Sweat.
  • Humid Weather.

Now, in my person experience, the following foods have seemed to have made my skin more oily.

  • Popcorn
  • Greasy foods in general
  • Soda
  • Salt and other dehydrating foods

Quick Tip - In general, it's a good idea to avoid foods high in salt, as these foods can be very dehydrating to the body. Dehydration can cause your skin to dry, which can then lead to an overproduction of natural skin oils, causing oily skin.

Wow this is a nice information. I totally agree with your post. Since I started eating a fresh salad and fruit and reduced fat foods down, so I have seen a big improvement for acne breakouts and defects. My skin is much softer and less oily, and secondly, I have less acne breakouts.
