Can somebody suggest a moisturizer for my nightmare skin? ?

Question

If I just wash my face with soap and water my skin goes really dry, flakey and tight, and yet, if I use moistureizer it goes really shiny and awful - and I mean REALLY shiny. Like, glass, reflect, mirror, shiny.

Can somebody suggest a moistureizer that is possibly non-oil based?

Answer 1

try to find a different face wash that isn't so rough on your skin

and try a moisturizer that doesn't clog pores.

i tried the velocity moisturizer from mary kay and it worked really well for my skin (i have combination skin)

Answer 2

Soap is far too harsh to use on your face, that's why your skin becomes really dry.  I use Neutrogena 'Fresh Foaming Cleanser' on my face and its great.  Look at their range of moisturisers as well, I'm sure they have non-oil based ones.  I can't recommend as I use a Nivea moisturiser that would be too rich for your skin.  

Good luck.

Answer 3

you should use biore relaly good i used it for my face at night

Answer 4

I have oily skin.

Don't use soap on your face, it's sensitive.

Use a good facial wash, I've started to use Tea Tree and Witch Hazel.

Also, you want a moisturizer that doesn't contain oil. Get a one that is specifically for shine free skin!
