After using a moisturizing cream in late autumn, small pimples and breakouts are appearing around my chin. I am wondering if there is a solution.
2026.11.04 19:48
As the weather has turned chilly and my skin feels tight, I started applying rich, nourishing moisturizing creams and face oils. However, this has actually caused small, bumpy pimples to appear along my jawline and around my cheeks. My skin feels dry and tight deep down, but on the surface, the oil film is clogging my pores, causing alternating breakouts and cystic blemishes. It seems my oil-water balance has completely collapsed. If I use sebum-controlling products to soothe the breakouts, my face feels like it’s tearing apart from dryness, but if I focus on moisturizing, the breakouts worsen. I am at a loss as to how to manage this. I would like to know about combinations of home care ingredients that address dryness without clogging pores, as well as gentle skincare methods like Aqua Peel and Pla Peel that cleanse sebum and exfoliate dead skin cells without irritation.

- 02CommentsIt's easy to neglect moisturizing the shins, and it's surprisingly difficult when they're itchy as well.190026.11.04
- 03CommentsI sympathize with you saying that when your arms are rough, you want to rub them, but you want to know their condition first haha.150026.11.04
- 01CommentsIf it stings even after applying moisturizing cream, it might indicate that your skin barrier is weakened rather than just being dry. If it were me, instead of getting a skin booster right away, I would consider reducing the use of irritating products for a while, stabilize your skin condition with soothing care, and then think about the procedure.370026.10.30
- 02CommentsIt must be inconvenient if your lips dry out again even after applying lip balm. Would it be helpful to review your moisturizing method if you could list the lip products you are currently using and when the stinging occurs?380026.10.30
- 03CommentsIf it is difficult to go out without lip balm, it must be really miserable every change of season. I sympathize with your curiosity about whether it is simply dryness or if there is another cause.290026.10.31
