This is another concept more over than a product: Hydration
Now I know okay - you can just be oily and no amount of hydration, technique... whatever, is going to solve that.
However, considering that a lot of the time over production of oil is a sign of dehydration, it definitely can't help to at least try.
My top recommendations so far would be the: Hada Labo Light Lotion, Kikumasamune High Moist Lotion and the range from Secret Key
The other thing that helped for me is just embracing that oiliness especially in the evening. I put so much facial oil on night you could fry chips on my face. During the day I also try not to get too concerned if the oils come through.
Hada Labo Gokujun Lotion is my latest obsession. It's a toner that is fragrance-free and super hydrating. http://www.amazon.com/Rohto-HADALABO-Gokujun-Hyaluronic-Lotion/dp/B000FQ4ZSM
GUYS. People with eczema tend to overexfoliate just from scratching. It's usually extremely unhelpful to exfoliate when you have active eczema. Keep in mind that just using a washcloth is exfoliation, and you don't have to be harsh with it. Taking more skin off is only hurting your ability to heal, not only getting rid of flakes. Those will mostly come off with just regular washing. This overexfoliation is so bad that my dermatologist specifically told me not to use AHAs (a type of chemical exfoliant) or any kind of scrubs. They only take you steps back in your skin's ability to heal and retain moisture.
Things that I've found really help:
Immediately (if you're about to walk into class or work) - Put an ointment or a salve on it. I like Albolene, Vaseline (unscented), Aquaphor, and this stuff(it does smell a bit botanical, though). I find Aquaphor to be the best because it lasts the longest, has moisturizing ingredients, and you can get it in a travel-friendly tube. Reapply as necessary. Go to the restroom after a couple hours and pat some water from the faucet into your skin. Cover with more. You will be shiny, but you won't be shedding on people.
Eczema is characterized by transdermal water loss ([Wikipedia])http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atopic_dermatitis)). That means that your skin is always losing water. I find that putting a good, thick, unscented cream on over drenched skin is the best. While it's "setting in," I pat more water into it. Many heavy creams nowadays have humectants and an ingredient called hyaluronic acid. These bond with the water in the skin, keeping it there. Our skin is so incredibly dry that these ingredients bond to whatever water is in our skin, and keep it there. We need to introduce more and more to make sure that we can stay properly hydrated.
How to know if you are properly hydrated: pat your skin. If you feel like some skin is sticking to your fingers, you are hydrated. If you pat your skin and it stays where it is (even if it is as smooth as marble), it is dehydrated.
I've found a lot of success with this Hada Labo (extremely popular in Japan) hyaluronic acid product that I use as a toner to hold moisture in and this Paula's Choice Skin Recovery Mask as a rich cream (says "mask," but that's just because most people can't tolerate that many emollients in a leave-on product).
If you really want to exfoliate, I've found some good success with Gold Bond CoQ10/Men's Essentials (same product, different packaging). It has urea in it, which is moisture-bonding as well as dead skin sloughing. In this product, it is strong enough to provide a sloughing effect while still being acceptable to our kind of skin, as well as having some great moisturizing ingredients.
Another way to safely exfoliate would be to cover your damp skin in a thick coat of Vaseline or Albolene, and after about a half hour, use thick paper/cardstock or an old credit card to scrape off the excess. It should be cloudy -- that's dead skin. Don't go too hard, and don't do it more than once a day. Make sure to moisturize super hard afterwards (plugging patting in more water between layers again!!).
Good luck! I know how embarrassing shedding can be. I almost didn't share a bed with my SO for the first time because I was scared that I would wake up and have covered the bed in white flecks. Good luck! Let me know how it turns out.
this one is the moist formula, which is the original.
there's a light formula which looks slightly different, for oily or acne-prone skin.
Yeah, I'm using the toner. This one to be precise. Are you sure I can't just spray it on? D:
Skin type: combo/cystic acne, blackheads, sensitive to parabens & talc
Country: UK
Top skin concern: acne, then ageing skin (hyperpigmentation, dull and wrinkled skin)
My current routine:
AM:
PM:
I've noticed that since introducing Aquaphor I've had a breakout of blackheads and cystic acne, overall I specifically want to get rid of the acne and balance my skin properly, reducing inflammation. I think bringing in more moisture might achieve this, but I don't want to cause further breakouts.
I'm considering introducing a Niacinamide toner and Rohto Hadarabo Gokujun Hyaluronic Lotion Smooth Light but I'm having troubles with sunscreen too.
 
In all honesty I'm a little lost, but trying to approach this in a methodical manner and have heard nothing but great things about AB! Any help, please?
