I have an annoying skin texture... it's fair dry in places but can get oily in others. If I use an abricot scrub daily its fin but I have recently had the contraceptive inplant in which has caused skin problems and I have gained some spots

What are the best ways to heklp get rid of these?
I'm trying tea tree but not sure adding oil to oil is wise??
Next I'm going to try honey and vin

Any suggestion more than welcome please

I have the same promblem with combination skin and find the only thing that keeps me balanced is Arbonne products.

I am on the contraceptive pill- diannette which is very good for clearing your skin. My skin is spot free and I've been on this pill for almost a year, but you notice a change around 3 months, it is worth waiting for! 'Simple' products are good for your skin also. When you have exfoliated you should then moisterise your skin well. I wear make-up and add Simple moisteriser to my liquid foundation to keep my skin soft, this also helps lighten my foundation slighty too.

Stress and contraceptive methods can play a role in causing hormonal imbalance which upsets the oil balance and makes your skin oily and dry. This is known as combination skin. Try using a mild facial cleanser designed for combination skin. You should also use an oil-free moisturizer after you wash your face.
