Q: so i have like.. a ton of pimples on my foreheard
i have dry skin around my T zone ( so bad, that it flakes ), i use moisturizer, but by the middle of the day ( i have bareminerals makeup on )my face gets really oily in my T zone. its weird. Does anyone know a moisturizer that is strong enough to moisturize my skin but not greasy and makes me oily?
also, i use differin and duac acne gels for my acne, they work sometimes but not all the time, it usually clears up then comes right back in a few days. Does anyone know any good home remedies or cheap stuff that works?? i dont wanna spend alot of money because i already did w/ differin & duac. so dont tell me to go to a dermatologist, cuz i already have.
thanks!
I use differin and duac too. Has it cleared your skin? It hasn't done anything to mine, but i've only been using it for 3 weeks.

I have the same flaky/oily t-zone. I've been using neutrogena day moisturizer. If you apply it a half hour before your makeup, it works great. Around noon I still get oily, so I use MAC brand blot powder.

it will start to work really good. the dermatologist told me it would be a few months. but mine got so cleared up that i just stopped using it, and now everything is a mess again
