Hi, I have really oily skin and with lot's of acne & scars on my cheek & chins. Should I till use a moisturizer?
I am planning to use the following product and see if it will help my skin.
Jurlique Foaming Facial Cleanser
Dr Hauschka Cleansing Cream (night time only)
Toner (very gentle)
Juice Beauty Blemish Clearing Serum
Sofina UV perfect sunscreen
Is there anything else I need? Also I am 27 years old, when should I start using anti-aging product? |

Juice Beauty green apple peel and Neutrogena acne fade gel help me with my acne scars.
I've had a lot of problems using anti-aging products, even the ones for ance prone skin. They all seem to make me breakout. |

I would just use a few drops of either Dr Hauschka Normalising Day Oil or Jojoba Oil.
I have very Oily skin prone to outbreaks and since I have converted to using Oil my skin has improved so much. |

| You may want to consider using a prescription retinoid (RetinA, Differin or Tazorac). This would help with your acne as well as provide antiaging benefits. As for moisturizer, only use it if you need it. However, I would recommend adding an eye cream. HTH |

| You'd do well to look at using anti-oxidants daily to prevent future aging. They neutralise free radical damage caused by UV radiation, natural internal skin processes and inflammation from things like acne. There's lots to choose from, but Vit C is the most popular. |

| You should still definitely use a moisturiser, particularly one for oily/acne prone skin. I used Decleor Ylang Ylang oil when I had oily/congested skin & it really did help a lot. I also thought clay based masks used once or twice a week also helped my skin too...I quite like the Dr H one. |

Not using a moisturize will not slove your skin condition. I second the Decleor's Ylang Ylang Oil suggestion to control your oil and acne. I suggest to use this at night initially.
And use a daytime moisturize like Jurlique Day Care Face Lotion which works great for oily skin. Or one with an spf sutiable for comb skin. |

Hey, before you invest in products to keep time from catching up with you remember to limit your time in the sun and if you have to be out wear a hat...that is free and will have the cumulative effect of preserving your skin so you don't have to spend big time to repair the damage. Next is find a sunscreen that works for you. Then invest in a skincare regimen that works for you and adjust to age or season related changes to the skin.
Decleor, Dr. Hauschka both have oils that help regulate, well, oil in the skin. I like both brands for oils but Dr Hauschka's cleansing cream is their best product IMHO.  Decleor has an outstanding menu of products such as their Ylang Ylang oil and balm.
You have lots of time to experiment. My advice in short is keep it simple.  |
