Can somebody suggest a moisturizer for my nightmare skin? ?

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?

    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.

    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!
