Hello and welcome.

If you are looking to keep non-oily skin, but non-dry skin, there is a good balance.
I reccomend a standard soap bar (not too expensive) by Nivia for Women (Facial Soap) or Deep Clean.

DO NOT EVER SCRUB YOUR FACE (this causes pimples and pain) DAB your face dry.

1. Wash your face with only water.
2. Apply the soap and make sure it is very foamy and soapy.
3. Massage face.
4. Wash off the soap.

Now, you can then pass a basic skin lotion on your face (try BABY LOTION) not OIL but LOTION or a NON-SCENTED lotion with low oil concentrate.

I am not a dermatologist, however this should help you out.

You can also use a low low percentage (2.8% Benzol Peroxide) CREME which has oil, but also dries the skin a bit.

It is a nice balance - I am telling you this because my skin is the same and I actually use womens soap (I am a man) but the combination I just told you seems to keep my skin SMOOTH and DRY but not "too dry" and not oily (you need oil in your skin) but you don't want to reflect light =)

I hope this helps!
Please follow up if you need to - SEE A dermatologist if you can't correct the problem.
