  Unfortuately, using alcohol straight from the bottle only causes your pores to produce more oil because they are making up for the essential oils that pure alcohol strips from your skin. It is a drying agent, and it does feel like you have finally soaked up all that oil when you use it, but, it is only compounding the problem. I only share this because I know that feeling of wanting to get rid of the oil, and becuase I was a cosmetics rep for many years and have had several classes on the science of this issue. What I am telling you can be verified on the web on several sites. You could dab some alcohol on a pimple to help dry it up. And you could make a homemade skincare product by diluting alcohol with other ingredients. It should only be used as a toner, though, after cleansing your skin with a mild soap or cleanser. Not my intention to be rude, just sharing knowledge. Also - your skin ages 7 years for every night that you go to bed with your make up on! Who knew? Be sure to use some type of facial cleanser before you hit the sheets!
