I have combination skin and also sensitive skin.I have minimal acne around my T-zone, and a whole lot of large pores and black heads along my nose. I find a lot of the 'on the shelf' products irritate my skin and dry it out. any homemade cleansers anyone could recommend?

Try finding something alcohol,paraben and perfume free,which is also ph neutral. I recommend La Roche cosmetics.

Coconut oil, I know it sounds counterproductive but it clears up acne in days and keeps your skin moisturized do your pores and glands don't produce extra sebum sure to over drying. it is a miracle product.

I switched to the brand simple and I couldn't be happier. their products contain a lot of natural ingredients and have no alcohol ir perfume which is great for sensitive skin. I use the toner, triple action face wash and the light moisturizer, all work great but I feel that the light moisturizer is still too heavy for my oily skin. I also use baking soda and make a paste with water to use as an exfoliater. I make a nutmeg, honey and soy milk mask every once in a while too which helps with my oily skin.

Ljubica I don't La Roche is available in AU :(
Savannah I've been hearing about coconut oil a lot lately I need to try it out? Is it litterally just an oil that can be applied in several areas? or can you find moisturisers etc. containing coconut oil?
Savanna I'll have to try Simple, I'm pretty sure its available in OZ. I'll be sure to try the mask too! I've been exfoliating once a week with a honey, lemon and sugar scrub. I've been told the lemon is good for scarring is this true? I have dark scarring from previous acne on my chin :(
Thanks for all your help ladies! really appreciate it xox

Lemon is good for scarring! I use this skin therapy oil by palmers which is great for discoloration and scarring, you should check it out if it's available to you, I've been using it for 3 weeks and my dark under circles are less noticeable.
