crazydaisyodu asked:
i used to live in virginia, spent about 22 years there. the climate is a LOT more humid and wet than california, where i live now, and i lived in the “country” so there was little to NO smog. in the last year and a half of living in a near desert climate in ca, near LA, my skin is not only drier than a bone, its started breaking out more than ever in my life before. i’ve never had bad skin! granted im planning my wedding across country now, so SOME is stress, but it was happening before the planning too. has anyone else had their skin suddenly turn bad and break out from changing climates? how long did it take to adjust and what’d you do in the meantime? for the record im not COVERED in breakouts, just more than i am used to, so please no recommendations for perscription acne stuff, thanks!
thanks for the answers so far, but has anyone not only had the dryness, but broken out as well? what did you do? i can’t over moisturize cus even w/ oil free moisturizers i worry that i will break out more. has anyone else had this problem? should i just treat it like combo skin? how DO you treat combo skin?
