Answers:
It sounds like you wash your face a lot and use a lot of products. The problem there is that sometimes too much washing and too many products can cause more breakouts. This happens if your skin gets so dry and irritated that it produces excess oil. Moisturizer is fine after washing your face if it is a light one (not too greasy), I use Cetaphil cleanser but haven't tried the moisturizer. You might want to cut down on the scrubs if you can and just do it a few times a week. Also, just splashing with water and applying moisturizer is good at times when your face isn't oily.

no no no no!! dont use st.ives blackhead/blemish control scrub. >.< st.ives stuff aren't gentle to ur skin. try using aveeno products.
