Would you rather have
Oily skin or dry skin?
And why?
I would pick dry skin because there are lots of different creams and oils that can help dry skin but if you have oily skin ( which I have now ) it is more hard to control
What's your pick?

I have oily skin too and I was about to say dry and then I thought that dry might be kinda painful 😁

Dry. I wouldn't have to worry about looking greasy/shiny. just have to use a good moisturizer & I'd be all good. :)

Dry because I hate my oily skin with a passion and a good moisturizer and I'd be set!

I would rather have dry skin because I could just find a good moisturizer. I hate having to blot tons of oil off my face throughout the day!

OIily skin all the way! I had oily skin and thought it was terrible just because I woild have to blot out or put powder on in the mornings. Now though I have dry skin because I have been on Tazorac acne medicine and it made my skin so dry I hate it. Even now after I'm off of the medicine my skin is still so dry and flakey and tight blah. And on the plus side I have hear in so many fashion and beauty places that oily skinned people age better ( less face wrinkles)

I would say oily skin Cuz doesn't your skin need those natural oils and Cuz I guess I'm already used to it and I think having oily skin is such a bad thing.

Oily skin, just because dry makes you have dry patches and sometimes flaky

Idk because I have normal skin but it's more on the dry side and dry skin can be a real pain.

Dry mostly cause I tend to get dry patches and I find that with some TLC and a good moisturizer I'm all set! I'm usually combo-dry and acne probe.

@Em
That is an old myth! The wrinkles are present regardless, dry skin just accentuates it more.
I prefer my skin now- normal to dry. I already have my skin care set up - I'd despise to have to add extra's and deal with oliness.
This thread is interesting though! When I first joined back in September - I was one of the very few who preferred dry skin. Everyone preferred oily!

Oily!
because I had one not so good experience with dry skin where it went all flaky and gross (sorry for veing graphic!
but I would prefer oily because you can use cleansers with no oil and you can use oil absobant sheets and go over your skin with powder!! xxx
