The logic seems sound: more moisture means more oil means more breakouts. It's wrong. Skin stripped of hydration reads the shortage as a threat and produces more oil to compensate, which is exactly what feeds congestion. Most blemish-prone skin is dehydrated underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #333; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0 0 16px 0;\"\u003eWhat that skin needs isn't a rich cream sitting on top of it.
