Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.
In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.
Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.
In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

If there's a local organic store near you, look for Desert Essence Facial Moisturiser. I too have acne prone skin and use it for moisturiser. If you need more oil, you should put a drop of jojoba oil into the moisturiser. Good Luck.
Check out makeupalley.com, it give you product reviews of many brands of moisturisers out there.

jergens skin mousterizer
i used to break out all the time and now that i use it, it kinda actually hides the acne. Just put the cream all over your face and then put some face powder on the acne spots (try to even it out and dont use too much) it really works! it's like u cant see the acne anymore and oh it's really cheap

I have dry spots even though my skin has lots of break-outs, choose something non-comedogenic (won't clog pores) and if possible with a sunscreen of at least 15 spf.
I use Almay - it's available in drugs stores and they have other products as well.
acne prone skin although oily, still needs moisture.

Forget about using a moisturizer. If you have an acne-prone skin take care of your zits first and make 'em disappear before you even bother. Moisturizer will just make you look oilier and your zits will actually love that. Are you Leslie Lim?

MURAD and PROACTIVE both have good skin moisturizers. Try Sephora! I also happen to like Sisheido Night Mouisture Recharge, its pricey but good for outbreaks.
