I struggle with a oily t-zone and my cheeks are most of the time normal. Every oil-free moisturiser I have ever used always just disappeared on my skin...my skin didn't feel moisturised and could sometimes feel tight. However, the past few days I have been using niveas light moisturiser for normal/combo skin and my skin is nowhere near as oily as it would be with my clinque gel. Does anyone else have this issue? If I have oily skin shouldnt my skin prefer products that are lil free?

Just becauss your face is oily, doesn't necessarily mean you have to use oil-free products. Sometimes oily skin can come from dry skin. And your skin may not like that it's oil free. Like your other post, I'd suggest jojoba oil. And make sure to have a skin care routine in washing your face 2 to 3 times a day.
