Answer 1

Eugh dont use Vaseline on your face! It is too thick and can clog your pores and you'll have an acne problem again. Use the cetaphil moistureizer for sensetive skin... it helps to restore the PH moisture in your face pretty well.

Answer 2

you can get some over the counter moisturizer such as something like nitrogen.  make sure it is oil free though and only put it on the spot that is dry. and when applying it, make sure you blot it on instead of rubbing it on.
