Same with me, I just exfoliate though and it seems to help a lot. Uhmm but you could try skipping powder and just blot throughout the day. And if you're using an oil-free moisturizer, well stop. I find those tend to just evaporate and then my skin gets oily. The ones with oils have it for a reason. The oil locks in the moisture and if it's locked in, your skin is moisturized and won't feel the need to produce so much oil

Do you moisturize every day and use a primer? I have super oily skin and I know what you mean. The garnier moisturizer for oily skin is great and it stops the oilyness. A primer should also help because it like a base for your makeup and it will stay on all day without drying or getting oily.

Ok even thought you exfoliate and moisturize you should know what ingredients you should put on your face for the oily/flakey skin. Oats is good for the dryness. So try some of that (My opinion) :)

Following. I have the same thing, except I know that the flakiness is because of a certain medication I'm on.

So I have relatively oily skin, not really oily but you get the picture.
By the end of school all my acne has dry/flakey skin around it which makes them really noticeable.
How can I fix this? I exfoliate regularly and moisturise regularly too.
