    So we're talking not just facially but other places too? Facially, I hope your derm told you to moisturise from day one, otherwise you will have bad dryness problems down the line. I paid the price for not being told that. Using oily things on other parts of your body should be fine, it's using them on your face that you wo'nt to avoid, anyone with spot-prone skin should use oil-free non-comedogenic products in any case. How is your skin improving if at all? Mine continued to improve after I had finished my 4 months stint. Good luck.
