The last step of daily skin care is to moisturized. So. do oily and acne skin need moisturizer ?

Moisturizer is to prevent lose of moisture and to replenish lost moisture to the skin. Oily skin need moisturizer as oily acne skin tend to be dehydrated. Your skin’s oil is not the same as the hydration level of the skin. Can you water your plants with oil ? So, you can’t expect your skin oil to ‘moisturize’ the skin.  Since the skin tend to loose moisture through eveporation, hydration is needed to keep the skin moist.       

For oily skin, be sure to choose a moisturizer that’s oil-free and non-comedogenic. A moisturizer for oily acne skin should also contain anti bacteria property to protect oily skin against any micro - organism. Gel or lotion are better choice them creams. Cream usually add too much of a good thing to oily skin and weigh it down. What you need is hydration not lubricant.  

Hydrated skin will feel much better. Skin that is oily but feels ‘dry’ is tight and uncomfortable. Dried out oily skin can become irritated and blotchy. Being irritated, tendency to scratch it or soothe the skin with your hand is inevitable which in turn make skin more prone to beakout into more acne. So, having well hydrated skin actually help to keep acne at bay.
