Should I moisturise face twice a day ?

I've always moisturised my face twice a day .
I've had horrendous spots all over my cheeks neck jaw and chin, tried everything to help clear it up but to no avail.

Recently I've stopped using moisturiser on my face ( just because Im last atm I'm to tired after washing face before bed and I fall straight asleep ) .
And the spots have are clearing up ,odd because I'm due my period and I always get spottier.

Am I onto something? , Have I been over moisturising my face ? .

( I understand how important skin care and sun factor is )

If you’re not using a harsh astringent or soap and your skin doesn’t feel like it needs it then you don’t need to. As women were totally conditioned to feel like our skincare is ‘needed’.

If it’s clearing up then see how it is with less frequent moisturising - could be the cream you’re using is too heavy and you need a lighter one. I don’t ever moisturise my face and only use sun cream if I’m on holiday as I react to lots of creams so my routine is plain old soap and water.
