What soap are you using? I would recommend someone not too oily, I like VDH Glycerin, and scrub it in good. For the A/S the higher alcohol ones will help keep your face dry.

For me I use Nivea because if I don't my face is too dry from the VDH and pulls, so since the Nivea has moisturiser it helps. THis is basically the opposite situation to you.

HTH.
