I've heard if you stop washing your face (including water) your skin will stop producing oil. Is that true?

If not, what about Accutane?I've heard if you stop washing your face (including water) your skin will stop producing oil. Is that true?
I have never heard that. The reason that you wash your face is to get rid of the extra oils without drying it out. When you dry it out-it produces more oil causing it to break out. But if you didnt wash your face at all, the more likely thing to happen would be that the oil would build up, and build up then clogg your pores. So you'd proabably end up breaking our really bad, and getting a lot of blackheads. But i dont know your skin.I've heard if you stop washing your face (including water) your skin will stop producing oil. Is that true?
Hmmmm....Isn't the reason for washing to decrease oil production? So, no I would have to say that washing is intended to decrease oil production, and that even if you didn't wash your face your skin would still produce oil.
Not even close to true, as for Accutane it decreases oil production but doesn't stop it completely. Plus it's a very powerful and potentially dangerous drug which shouldn't be taken lightly.
Your skin always is producing oil. Some faces just produce more than others. But I have never heard of this claim.
