Hi, I have few questions since estheticians usually determine skin bit differently - how does your skin reacts to water and soap? - what oil have you applied? In general oils like wheat oil or coconut oil in acne prone skin can cause acne - why can't you use sunscreen? Have you ever tried to use mineral sunscreen? - is your T zone different than U zone? (U zone - chin and cheeks) in general, no one has oily or dry skin, usually we have combination of few things. What I believe you skin is can be dehydrated oily & sensitive or dehydrated combo & sensitive. If it comes to moisturizer, do you live in a warm place? If so then I would recommend using gel creams like enature. Dr Jart+ has 3 creams worth a try, especially cica one should be great - centella in your case should speed up wound healing and help with acne. Benton and iUnik should be a great choice as well. If it comes to sunscreen - I would go for mineral sunscreen. I know isntree has great sunscreens, and mineral one is also recommended by many people. Some general informations: try to choose products with ceramides, maybe some panthenol, allantoin, centella, cholesterol and lipids to keep your skin barrier in good condition. If it comes to acne - I would recommend using products with tea tree oil if you skin accepts it since some skins are not fans of this ingredient. Klairs Blue Midnight Cream might be great as a spot treatment since it contains azulenes. Tia'm has some interesting products for acne prone skin and I believe azulene cream might be an option for you. Vitamin C - for pigmentation, but try to use vitamin C below 10% since sensitive skin doesn't always react well to this ingredient and usually higher concentrations can cause acne.
