I have combination skin. It's oily and dry, Will this apply moisture without clogging my pores and will it help remove blemishes off of my face?

you might prefer teatree oil for blemishes? although this would still be beneficial to the dryness of your skin

I think it will be good for your skin. I also have a combination skin. Oily face and dry rest of my body. It works good! Apply minimally to oily areas.

Jojoba oil absorbs fast so skin doesn't feel oily about a minute after application; it doesn't block the pores or cause blemishes on the parts of my body I put it on, but I don't put it on my face because my face isn't dry. Since I no longer have oily skin, I can't answer whether it will remove or even worsen blemishes.

apply to your sink after a shower while you are still wet so it helps lock in the moisture. If you let your skin dry first it will start to crack and flake at a microscopic level, and then applying the oil will help clog the pores with dead skin cells. a good exfoliant such as coffee grounds during your shower will help remove the dead skin cells as well.

Jojoba oil is supposed to be one of the best products out there for your skin because it is the closest thing you can find to your body's natural oils so it will work the best with your skin and pores. It is definitely a great moisturizer for your skin to use without clogging your pores up

Yes its very moisturize and I've never had a problem clogging the pores and it absorbed fast.

i thin you'd hav to ask a dermatologist to be sure. It def helps exfoliate skin. which could unclog pores.

I have been using this for a couple years and have not had any problem with it. I have combination skin and it is not oily to cause breakout AND moisturise the dry. I have not had problems with this line. I use several different products in line

Once I started using this my combination/congested skin improved greatly. It sounds weird putting oil on an oily face- but it actually tricks your skin to stop producing as much oil. My breakouts now are rare, and I use it every night and morning under my bb cream. Plus your not putting synthetic chemicals on your face!

I would think so. I'm in my 60's and used to have oily skin. Now that I've aged my skin is part oily and part thin and dry so I guess I can call it combination skin. It is the best cleanser I've used in a long time. It seems to clean well and my breakouts have pretty much stopped (and yes - I'm still having breakouts). But it hasn't dried out the dry part of my face nor has it caused redness. I guess I sound like an advertisement but I really do like this product. It works for me and is still gentle.

I don't have that issue, so Im sorry, I can't answer that question. However, I would try it. I've learned that with skin issues, it's all trial and error. I love this product, it's the only thing that works for me in keeping my skin clear. I use it with the clarisonic electronic brush skin cleaner to unclog pores. I bet that would work for you!

it can clog your pores. you are better off using a mixture of shea butter, mango butter, argan oil and hemp seed oil for your face as they will not clog pores

I always use along with moisturizer but I have dry skin. I usually mix a bit of Coola with my moisturizer then apply on my face.

My skin is combination and it works very well for me. My cheeks are on the dry side and t-zone is oily;the Cerave evens everything out.

In all the years I have used this I have only used it wet. I did find it didn't "work" when I had regular facials. I guess I did not have a lot of dead skin to remove. Make sure your skin is not sipping wet when you apply just damp. You don't want it to just slide off your skin. It needs to be able to penetrate hold to get at the dead skin.do one spot at a time,concentrate the effects.

I'm not sure what you mean by sticky. I put it on my freshly cleansed face, after I've used toner, serum and moisturing cream. I need to keep the moisture in my skin. It goes on smoothly and looks great. My face feels moist and not tacky, but hey, that's just me. I'd be really unhappy if it left me feeling dry. I'm extremely pleased with this and it is a great base for my makeup, which is relatively simple. Blush and contour powder goes on smoothly over it, as does eye makeup.

Yes! I apply the moisturizer when my skin is damp and it drys perfectly smooth. I have oily skin so it works very well for me. Love it!!!

My skin is fairly dry, however, I found that applying moisturizer prior to application made my face fell greasy. I apply directly after cleansing my skin.

Everyone's skin is so different, I really couldn't give you an honest answer. I have combo skin and I do have breakouts/rosacea and sensitive skin. This feels cool while applying and since it's water based, I wouldn't think it would cause more breakouts. The grapeseed/fruit stuff in this product is used to dry oily skin, so it may help your acne.

I would say it DOES help even your skin tone among other things. My cheeks and jawline were burdened with acne and acne blemishes. I barely noticed results when using this as a Mask 1x/wk basis, and even 2x/wk. This week, I used this as a nightly "Rinse", and now my face is almost blemish-free. I already use a konjac sponge to exfoliate my skin, then apply the clay (mixed with a few add-ins). I keep the clay on no more than five minutes, rinse, then moisturize. I did this for seven nights in a row, and WOW. What I looked like the Monday before I started this is pretty damn yucky compared to what I look like by the next Monday morning. I wish I had thought to try this sooner. I would say it DOES help even your skin tone among other things. My cheeks and jawline were burdened with acne and acne blemishes.

I would say yes, to give it a try. I have combination skin and it works well on me. It's more like a light soothing gel and not a typical face cream. Just wash your face first before putting it on. Good luck.
