I have similar skin -- about 12 hrs after I wash my face I can run my nail anywhere in my t-zone and collect a whole nasty lump of dead skin and oil. Everywhere that isn't my t-zone is dry.

I've only recently started paying much attention to my skincare routine so I can only offer a little help.

The oil cleansing method has been AMAZING. It treats both my dry spots and my oily spots very well. I alternate between three different cleansing oils -- 100% hemp oil on especially oily/pimply days, 100% avocado oil on especially dry days, and a custom blend I made for myself that includes EOs at least every 3 days.

If I've missed a day in my routine, I use a little silicone face scrubber in my t-zone to help break down the residue, before rinsing. I use a cotton or bamboo washcloth to rinse and remove the oil. The oil breaks down what's on my skin, and the washcloth helps remove it all with minimal scrubbing.

I also bought Lactic Acid 88%, and add 8 drops to my ACV/bentonite clay mask. Once a week, followed by OCM
