Ladies, please help! Need skincare product suggestions.

I have been using Proactiv for a while. I can use it fine in the summer sometimes, but never in the winter (esp. with our super-drying gas heat--even adding 2 humidifiers hasn't helped). My skin looks dry, dull and flaky right now, plus broken out. I have mostly dry skin, esp. on the cheeks and chin. Yet, the cheeks, chin, and forehead are where I get most of my occasional breakouts. For some reason, my skin is going nuts on the breaking out right now, PLUS still dry and flaky.

Any suggestions on products? I really feel like I need something to exfoliate due to the dullness of my skin. Maybe I only need to do that a few times a week though? I also need a good moisturizer that won't clog my pores or make me breakout. I don't mind a multi-step regimen, I just want my skin to look better.

Any advice and recommendations welcome, esp. from people with similar problems.

In the winter I have to use a heavier moisturizer for my sensitive, oily t-sone skin. I use Clinique and find it works well for me but I know many lines now make good acne fighting moisturizers. If you are prone to breakouts, maybe a dermatologist can give you something to combat the dryness and breakouts. Best of luck!

Your skin sounds very similar to mine, and I finally found something that works.
