Ok so I'm a fair skinned red head and my skin has always been naturally sensitive but over the years has become even more so and I would now describe it as hypersensitive/reactive. It's also dry and feels 10 sizes too small if I don't put moisturiser on straight after showering/cleansing (happens no matter what cleanser I use so isn't from using anything too harsh and I don't use foaming) but my skin often looks shiny through day but isn't at all oily it still feels tight and uncomfortable even when shiny (extremely dehydrated I guess) I also get spots still, sometimes whiteheads and sometimes those sore red lumps, sometimes both together :( and often get more rashy type clusters of spots. I cannot use anything fragranced on my face. Make up is very hard work, cannot wear foundation it looks awful on me but tinted moist looks shiny and gives no coverage. Cannot wear powder no matter which one! I'm using no7 intelligent colour which is best of a bad bunch. Oh and mineral foundation is a NO NO.
does anyone else have freaky skin like this? What do you use?
(My skin cannot tolerate lots of products so can't do the whole cleanse,acid,hydrate,serum,cream blah blah lol)
