How is it that the skin on my face is both oily and dry so needs moisturising?

Shouldn't the two balance each other out?How is it that the skin on my face is both oily and dry so needs moisturising?
Its probably dehydration. Oily skin can become dehydrated from lack of moisture not oil. Dry skin is usually a lack of oil. What you need to do is find an oil free moisturizer and drink lots of water. On the other hand if your skin is oily is some places like the T-zone (forehead nose and chin) and dry in others like your cheeks then you could have combination skin as said in another answer. If thats the case then you could do one of two things. You could treat both areas with different products or you could buy products meant for combination skin. Either way I would still stick to an oil free moisturizer.How is it that the skin on my face is both oily and dry so needs moisturising?
As posted before, it's called combination skin. Your glands always compensate for the dryness in your skin by producing excess oil. Which is why skin should always be moisturized because it needs hydration (water hydration). Your skin's production of excess oil (most likely the t-zone), could be addressed by using toner and a mattifying moisturizer. Some people recommend using two different types of moisturizers for the different problem areas.
You need to use a good face wash, toner and then a moisturiser for combination skin. Wash your face at night and use a night cream. You will see the difference in two weeks, The initial financial outlay may not be great, but you don't have to replenish these all at the same time and they last a while. Good luck
that means your skin is too dry. when your skin is overly dry it will produce more oil too even it out but it often produces to much oil. so throughout the day your skin will get very oily but right after you wash it its dry. just try using a light moisturizer that wont clog pores. i recommend the proactive green tea moisturizer or aveeno.


hope that helps
I have the same problem. I always have. I am 30 and have gone through countless products in my life. The best one I have found is Dermalogica for oily skin. It is a bit spendy, but its your skin! You can get a sample kit for about $15 on ebay if you want to try it before commiting to it....
It's called combination skin. You can buy cleansers and moisturisers specifically for your skin type. They wouldn't ';balance each other out'; because your face is oily in some parts and dry in others.
yeah..my face is like that to





i suggest differen, you can get it from the pharmacy or at your dermitologist

Do i really have to put on moisturizer even if my skin is already oily?

my skin is really oily as it is, esp my T-zone. Im just wondering if i have to put on moisturizer at night. whats the best way to beat oiliness? thanks.Do i really have to put on moisturizer even if my skin is already oily?
yes u have to use it especially during the day. we have oil-free mosturisers for people with oily or combination skin


why dont u try neutrogena oil-free range? its very good for oily and combination skin.


it includes oil-free facial wash, oil-free mosturiser and daily facial scrub.


the 3 of them together remove acne and blackheads, acne marks and control oil production in ur face and prevents future breakouts of acne and blackheadsDo i really have to put on moisturizer even if my skin is already oily?
well if you're putting moisturizer on oily skin, then your skin is absorbing that good moisture and not oily junk that gives you zits and your body wont produce as much oil if you're giving it to your skin already.
if you have oily skin and are being told to purchase a moisturizer by a beauty advisor, she/he is trying to make a sale. you don't need it. wash well twice a day using a cotton wash cloth to keep the dead skin exfoliating, which will keep down acne and black heads.
Dont put on moisturiser at night. Thats the time when your skin has to regenerate itself and it cant do it very well when the pores are clogged up with lotion. Try using a LIGHT lotion only in the morning after cleansing, and also use a witch hazek toner because it will help clear up the oil.
  • use of mensovit plustablet
  • What are the good toners for oily skin?

    yea sunWhat are the good toners for oily skin?
    Go to trader Joe's. they have a ton of tea tree oil blemish and skin care stuff. you will probably find a toner there. plus its natural.What are the good toners for oily skin?
    Have you ever heard of BeautiControl? They have this wonderful stuff called All Clear... it's like pro-active, I LOVE IT! I don't even really have bad skin to begin with so I thought it would dry out my skin really bad, but no it keeps it really regulated well. They have this toner that you have to shake up before each use because there are little white micro-beads that sink to the bottom, it's a very strong astringent/toner, but it's nothing I can't even handle and I have pretty sensitive skin!
    Clean and Clear has a good one.

    Does anyone know if Neutrogena Acne stress Control products is for oily and acne prone skin?

    I have very oily skin, and I break out just about everyday, and it stresses me out. :( Does anyone know if Neutrogena Acne stress Control products is for oily and acne prone skin?
    Stress can increase acne so stop stressing! Look carefully at labels. I do know that Neutrogena makes a line of normal skin and oily skin products. If these products don't help after a month or so, time for a trip to the doctor. They can get your acne under control with the proper treatment. Be patient acne treatments can take up to 3 months to see the full results.

    I have REALLY oily skin (on my face only) and need some help to fight this.?

    It is to the point that I don't wear any type of foundation make-up on my face or lotions- and my face is STILL oily!!I have REALLY oily skin (on my face only) and need some help to fight this.?
    just because you have oily skin dont stop wearing makeup if that what you like. I have oily skin specially aroung my nose and foreheand and chin. I use mineral makeup and it help to absord the oil. I also use and oil control moisterizer, face scrub and toner at night to control it. I use the moisterizer under my make up and it seems to have helped a bit. I still get that shine that i hate but i use the oil blotting pads and i used it every once in a while when i feel my face it too oily and i always carry a traslucante powder that i brush on face whe the shine comes back. it helps even though at times i feel like this is alot to control oil.I have REALLY oily skin (on my face only) and need some help to fight this.?

    Join the club! i have really oily skin.





    you have to be vigilant with your skin. cleanser, toner, lotion





    i started using the clean %26amp; clear line for oily skin. Its a white and green bottle that says ';morning burst';


    the oil control lotion has worked wonders on my face.





    I've also used the Mary Kay line in the past and it worked great but was too much to pay for.





    THe one thing you have to remember is to wash and tone.. i use the oxy pads, they work great to get the dead skin off your face.





    twice a day washing a must
    i sugest you use mary kay oil control lotion.since i started using it last year, my face has stopped being oily.


    give it a try.


    gud luk!!!
    I have the same problem too, but i agree with the others. u don't have to stop wearing makeup even if u have oily skin. u just need to keep a strict cleaning regime.





    make sure u cleanse, tone and moisturise at least twice a day using an oil-control product. u should use a lotion instead of a cream for moisturising as there is less oil in it.





    use a face exfoliator but not more than twice a week, any more than that will cause the more oily skin. u can try a homemade recipe using crushed oats, lemon juice and chopped cucumber.





    put a mask on once to twice a week also. try yoghurt, chopped tomatoes and lemon juice, mix it well and leave it on ur face for at least 15mins. if it works well u can use it up to 3 times a week.





    as for makeup, u need to use an oil control primer before u put foundation on. for foundation don't use liquid ones cos they are oil-based and causes more oil to the skin. try using a compact instead.





    also keep a pack of oil-blotting pads in ur handbag. it comes in handy when ur out.





    hope i've helped :)
    i agree just coz u have oily skin don't mean you can't were make up just wash your face twice a day and use a triple action lotion

    I have a oily skin filled with black spot should i use closeup- tothpaste on the black spot?

    and also have anyone tried Iq derma 3 step acne kit and does it work 4 blackspotI have a oily skin filled with black spot should i use closeup- tothpaste on the black spot?
    use biore blackhead control, it works for acne and blackheads and as you put it on it becomes warm so it goes deeper into the pores. toothpaste is for drying out, as in drying out pimples. if you have blackheads, you have bigger pores, so the toothpaste will get into your pores a little and just make it worseI have a oily skin filled with black spot should i use closeup- tothpaste on the black spot?
    Try spot treating with BP - Benzyl Peroxide or even tea tree oil
    I've always had problems with my skin, until I heard of this natural product called DMSO. It's amazing and all natural. You can find it in lotion form at any natural foods stores. I put it on my face, and within 1 week it got rid of ALL of my acne(which I've been battling for over 2 years) got rid of all imperfections and made my face really soft. I haven't had a problem since!
    don't use toothpaste. if you use the wrong kind it can make your skin inflamed.


    are they blackheads? if they are you can go to a facialist and she can give you an extracion facial. they use these metal tools to squeeze them out. try using acne exterminator. it comes in an orange tube and it stops new acne from forming.
