Re: Metrocream causing oiliness?

[Guest guest]

I had the same problem with oilness in my t-zone. I switched to

Metrogel for my nose and forehead. I still use Metrocream for my

cheeks because they tend to be dry. Both medications contain the

same active ingredients, it's just that the gel is not creamy and it

better for oiler skin.

My forehead and nose still get somewhat shiny from sunscreens, but

not nearly as bad as they were before.

Hope that helps some-

I've been using metrocream for about three months and DO notice a shiny/oily

appearance I didn't have before. I've not yet tried the gel, but after

reading that post I think I will.
