ANSWER: Zee-
Well I am not sure what your using currently for skincare. You really need to exfoliate your skin if not daily with a gentle cleanser that incorporates microbeads but twice a week on clean skin. There are tons of products out there for this. A good cleanser is also crucial to keeping your skin healthy and great. You can use cetaphil or even dove soap or a more upscale one. It sounds like you have dry skin with oily surface which means you really need a good moisturizer as well.
As far as make up goes I am not quite sure what you mean by light? It sounds like your only wearing lipstick and eyeliner and that to me is light. Do you mean light colors or natural looking?Please clarify so I may better answere for you(:
Thanks so much
amber

what u mean my cleanser? i some times use nevia  moisturizer toner? isnt tat the same..........
let me know if u wana know more about

Answer
Hi again. I mean a good soap to clean your face. That is a cleanser. Toner restores the ph balance in your skin ( the oil to water ratio of your skin).

I would recommend a great natural foundation like Dior Nude liquid foundation. It is a water based mineral make up and is great for the skin. It feels like your not wearing any! I also like Revlon  12 hr eyeshadow quad in coffee bean its a great stay put brown palette that looks great on everyone! I love Dior Addict lipstick in #323 for a great neutral rose tone for everyday. Its soft and natural. For blush I like Lancome blush in miel glace or shimmer mocha havanna.
Good Luck
amber
