[mahu]

hi,
i have very oily skin and over here in pak the humdity level is like 79 % at times ..so its hell for me ..so i need to ask do i still need to apply moisturizers cuz even the non greasy ones make my skin greasy in seconds..and if i need to apply them which ones shud i use?? and plus any suggestions about face washes???

Personally, I only use moisturizer when I need it, which is maybe on my cheeks right in the middle of winter. I do use a sunscreen daily. My choice is Aveeno Ultra Calming Daily Moisturizer with SPF 15. It's very light and non-greasy. I also use Aveeno Ultra Calming Foaming Cleanser to cleanse.

I'm using Hydra - Move from Dior. It's not that oily. I live in the middle east and during summer it's so hot and humid. But imo you still need to moisturise your skin. I have no complaints about this one. Neutrogena is a good brand if your looking for oil free moisturers fairly cheaper in price...

Hey Mahu......I am also from Pakistan........I can understand you problem......I dont think that you need a moisturizer......But one thing that is very important is you should drink at least 8 glass of water........It will keep your skin hydrated and will lessen the oil.........If you still want to use moisturizer.......then after washing your face splash it with cold water for 10 to 15 times.......the let your skin air dry......After 15 minutes apply anything you want on your skin........I dont have a very oily skin....so when I need moisturizer I use loreal pure zone's moisturizer....It specialy for teens oily skin...pure zone rage also have a facial cleanser and toner.......but they are a bit expensive every product is near Rs. 300.........

The best thing you can do for your skin is go to a dermatologist.....they know whats best for you

bips advice is pretty much spot on, only use moisturiser on parts of your face that do not have open pores or spots; because they are oily, they already have enough moisture, and more could result in breakouts. Look for oil-free moisturisers, and only use on parts of your face like your cheeks- and use a seperate one for under your eyes, as that skin is very delicate and needs an eye-cream, not a heavy moisturiser.

if the weather is that inconvenient and obviously your skin isnt dry then i dont think you need to apply moisturiser, especially if youre fairly young?
perhaps you can put a light, night cream on!
