Am I washing my face too much?

On days like today, when I'm not going out and it's really hot, my face tends to feel oily/sweaty. Instead of putting on the usual powder to keep my skin matte, I just wash with really cold water whenever my skin's feeling icky. I've heard that it's possible to over-wash the face, so I'm just wondering if this is advised or not? Thanks.

Am I washing my face too much?WASH YOUR FACE IN THE MORNING AND THEN IF YOU ARE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH OILY SKIN YOU CAN BLOT IT WITH THE BLOTTING TISSUES (FYI-IT IS THE SAME MATERIAL AS TOILET SEAT COVERS SO YOU CAN ACTUALLY TEAR PEACES FROM THOSE AND USE IT). YOU CAN ALSO LOOK AT USING AN ASTRINGENT TO HELP CONTROL THE OILS IN THE SKIN.
Am I washing my face too much?u can was your face too, much never wash your fae more than 3 times a day, you will just make it dryer
Am I washing my face too much?You can wash your face up to three times a day without drying out your skin. I tended to need to wash my face a lot while I was pregnant. I read on a website that said if you have severely oily skin, it was OK to wash up to three times a day; that washing twice a day just wasn't often enough to keep the oil-slick away. You're also supposed to wash your face after exercise and sweating. So I think you're doing just what you should be doing to keep the oil under control and still have healthy skin. I do recommend a gentle soap or cleanser without an exfoliant for most of your face washing. It will help protect your skin from irritation.
