Hi everyone! I have weird skin: very oily nose, but it peels frequently and is totally covered in blackheads, and relatively dry cheeks and chin - they sometimes feel tight, but rarely peel, and tend to get zits easily(I'm 24!!!). My skin is also somewhat sensitive - it gets red easily and I can't exfoliate often because of that.
In the last year I started using 2 different moisturizers - La Roche Posay Nutritic for my nose(it hasn't peeled since), and to control the acne on the rest of my face @mosphere's tea tree oil moisturizer. I have loved this combo as it made my skin look great(almost no zits), if i go off the tea tree oil moisturizer for even a day or two I break out. The one crappy thing is it leaves my skin just a bit tighter than i'd like it to. I tried the much more expensive The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil moisturizer, but it was quite a bit more drying than that which I use now.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a light-medium moisturizer that I can use on my cheeks/chin that won't make me break out but is still moisturizing enough for dry winter air? Even a recommendation for a good light-medium moistuizer for sensitive skin would work, too, and maybe I could just add pure tea tree oil to it to stave off zits. Any help would be much appreciated! TIA!
