I think I've found a balance!

I posted a while ago about my issue with combination skin and finding a balance. I also spoke about my acne prone skin. Well, I took a break from all of my facial cleansers and stuck strictly to my medication, given to me by my dermatologist, and water! For the past 2 weeks, I've been washing my face with just water or spectra gel on the occasional day when my face is extremely oily. My "regimen" that I have been following consist of :

1. Washing my face with water in the morning and moisturising with a little bit of natural olive oil, which I also use in my hair.

2. In the night, I wash my face with water, moisturise with a bit of olive oil and then apply my acne medication.

This routine has really helped my skin. I find that using the using the olive oil before I apply my medication helps significantly to stop my skin from drying out. So far, my skin has cleared up quite a bit as well as my skin is moisturised.
