Wierd skin type

I don't get alot of acne. Only when I'm on my period do I get a few pimples here and there. I think I have combination skin. Because my T-Zone is oily, but nothing else is. I don't know what to do. Because whenever I wash my face everyday I start to get pimples, but I know that I should wash my face everyday. And it's not the skincare I'm using, because I've tried several and all the other ones make me break out even after using them for 2 weeks.

I am using The Body Shop. Vitamin E eye cream, Seaweed Clarifying Night Treatment, Seaweed Purifying Facial Cleanser (every other day), and when I get pimples I put the Tea Tree Oil Blemish Stick on it.

Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Because, I've started to break out a little bit more and I don't know what to do. Maybe I'm not even doing the right thing. I'd prefer to keep using the Body Shop. Here is their site if it helps: thebodyshop.com

As I mentioned to the other poster, maybe you should go a week or two without any skin care products. I find that the more I put on my face, the worse it usually becomes. Sometimes less is more.

Re: Wierd skin type

you may have a chemical sensitivity. just use frangrance free soup (like by dove) & a fragrance free moisturizer. especially if you are lucky enough not to suffer from bad skin. you probably don't need all that other stuff. the more you use the more quicker you age.
