My skin feels dry, Im in week three of the regimen and my skin has definitely improved. However although my skin feels dry and parched whenever I use makeup I look SO oily. Oilier than I ever did before the regimen.

I dont know if its because Im using more moisturizer than I ever did before the regimen which could be causing it.

Does anyone else feel like this and will it settle down?

What kind of makeup do you use? Powder or liquid? Before you began the regimen, was your skin oily? My skin used to be oily before I started using BP. After I began, my skin changed. I also started using Jojoba oil which helped EXTREMELY. Jojoba oil tricks your skin into thinking it doesn't need to produce oils. I would read a bit about it.

At the moment Im using a powder foundation because I dont need much coverage and its light on the skin. And before it was definitely towards the oily side but I dont remember it being this oily.

I would look into jojoba oil but I know it will clog my skin. Im hoping its going to settle down.You cant tell when I havent got makeup on though.
