For some reason I've noticed that my skin drys out in the spring and gets more oily in the winter. I have no idea why that is but what are some of your favorite cleansers for combo skin?

I think your skin may just be dry and it creates more oil in the winter because of the extra dryness/harshness in climate to moisturize itself. Skin does that. And in the spring due to the more normal weather it probably calms down its excessive oil production and its inherent dryness is more visible. remember to always moisturize after your cleansing, even if your skin is oily, all skin needs moisture. There are types of moisturizers for combo/oily and dry skin.
The thing with cleansers is some can not cleanse or be too harsh for even the oiliest of skins and irritate the skin. My favorite cleanser for my own combination skin is Soap & Glory's Face Soap and Clarity foaming face wash :)
