My skin is "oil-dry" meaning it does not produce the right amount of oil to protect itself. I have struggled all my life with severly dry skin and acne cysts that would be red and inflamed, but never come to a head. I've never had traditional acne.
Just a few years ago, I started seeing a natural skin care person who examined my skin and did some tests to determine that the problem was that there wasn't enough oil in the skin to push the dirt and bacteria out. I confirmed this finding with a dermatologist and began using facial oil and Jurlique Day Care Skin Cream. My skin has never looked healthier!
And, I rarely get acne cysts anymore.
I have tried makeup for mature skin (it's what I currently use) because, as OtterXO mentioned, it is supposed to be very moisturizing. But, I always end up with tight skin and flaky makeup. That's why I mix some of the Jurlique cream with the makeup and that works a lot better.
