Hey ladies,
So I've tried a few products like clean and clear, Clinique, proactive and a few other brands. So I'm currently using the first aid beauty cleanser for all types of skin and the aloe Vera moisturizer. I'm still uncertain if these are the right products for my skin type. I have dry and oily skin. I also have bad acne. Help me please.

Dry and oily or dehydrated and oily? Or are you combination with zones being different?

I have the same skin type as it you and it took me a long time to work out what worked with my skin, it's so awkward having different skin types all on one face!
I currently use the Garnier micellar water as a cleanser, which I really don't like. I'm probably going to be going back to my Liz Earle cleanse and Polish for my skin which I love and is so gentle.
However, the rest of my routine I'm really happy with. I then use the B. hyaluronic acid spray after cleansing as I find this really helps with my dry patches and calms any redness. After that's dried on my skin, I use Naissance rosehip oil (I got mine from Amazon), concentrating on my dry areas. I'll then use a light layer of Papayagold pawpaw ointment on my dry areas. I do this both day and night, I just use more product at night time. I really like this routine and it works so well for my skin.
Like you, I've tried so much stuff. I really loved the Clinique dramatically different moisturising gel but only in the summer when my skin is more oily as I found it didn't really hydrate my skin.

For acne I recommend BHA products. Only brand I trust on the US market for salicylic acid is Paula's Choice. They have a bunch of formulas so you can customize your approach to exfoliation. Amazon carries the CosRX BHA power liquid which is also a good option.
A good basic cleanser that has been a staple of mine for years is the Olay gentle clean foaming face wash.

I've tried near enough the same brands as you, and personally they didn't help my skin in any way! I asked a question on here like the same one you are, and somebody recommend Mario Badescu, and I promise you I've never ever looked back! I've fitted it into my skin routine and gotten them under control! I use the products of an evening and the face masks twice a week! And use a deep moisturiser every day. If you want to know the moisturiser and the Mario Badescu products I use I'll be more than happy to let you know. I hope this helps!!💜

Differin gel is a retinol that was only available with a prescription but now OTC. It's 12 bucks and amazing for acne. Use it only on oilier areas once a day and you only need a very small amount. (You may purge) I double cleanse with Klairs Black Oil, Glossier Jelly Cleanser, followed by Biologique P50, Differin gel, and Belif Aqua bomb moisturizer.
