Hi Everyone,
I would like to get some feedback from other combination skin people.  I and a DSNW, on the border line of the D/O 25 and have found that this skin type helps me.  However, I  still get oily in the T-Zone.  I am using Dove non foaming (cheeks) and the Avene acne wash (T-Zone) as I have blackheads in my T-zone. I am still working on a moisturiser and foundation. At the moment my moist. is Dove Energy glow - ok but my skin doesnt stay balanced and I get slightly oily in the T-Zone and the Dove tinted moisturiser for the foundation.  I like the tinted moist.  but need to use powder to stop oilyness.  I did start using Jurlique day cream but found it clogged me up too much!
I am using the Avene water and I love it! It really calms my skin down.
At night I am using Ren, but I am waiting for that to run out before I get a W moisturiser.  It is ok but I still get the occasional pimple as it is not recommended for acne ( I got it before I bought the book!) At least it balances my skin out more. Oh and I am using the Clarins Beauty Serum which I am happy with and is listed in the O section as well.
So, I would love to hear from other combination skin types and get some feedback!

MariKon,

I have combination skin. I use Glytone glycolic acid lotion in the morning with PCA Skin pHaze 7 moisturizer SPF25. In the evening I use Renova, Fresh Soy Eye Cream and Olay Regenerist Serum on dry areas. Currently I'm using Cetaphil cleanser.

I have other products that I occasionally use, but this is my base and works well for me. I also use Dr. Denese Vitamin C Radiance Cream as a primer and Elizabeth Arden Flawless Finish Bare Perfection foundation.

Thanks NickNack
I will look into some of the products you mentioned. Even though you are a different type you have a couple of similar scores to me - especially S. I used to use Cetaphil too, but it dried out my dry areas! I still use it as my eye make up remover as it doesnt bother my eyes.
I'll have to look into the Elizabeth Arden foundation.
I have heard good things about the Olay regenerist serum and will try it once my other serum runs out.
Thanks
