Quick answer
Oily forehead and nose but dry, tight cheeks? That is combination skin — the trickiest to balance. Here is a simple day and night routine for combination skin in the Bangladesh climate.

Combination skin means an oily T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) with normal-to-dry cheeks. The goal is balance — control oil where it is greasy without stripping the dry areas. Bangladesh humidity makes the T-zone oilier, so lean light.
Morning routine
1. Gentle gel or cream cleanser — clears oil without over-drying. See which face wash.
2. Niacinamide serum — balances oil across the face. See niacinamide.
3. Lightweight moisturiser — a gel-cream; apply a little more on dry cheeks. See which moisturiser.
4. Sunscreen SPF50+ — daily. See the sunscreen guide.
Night routine
- Cleanse → optional BHA 2–3×/week on the oily T-zone only (BHA) → moisturiser (a richer layer on cheeks).
Zone-specific tips
- Multi-moisturise: lighter on the T-zone, richer on the cheeks.
- Do not strip the oily areas — harsh drying makes the T-zone produce *more* oil.
- Blotting sheets for midday shine instead of re-washing.
If your whole face is oily instead, see the oily-skin routine; if tight and flaky all over, the dry-skin routine.
