Newbie with a question about OCM.

First of all, my skin is somehow both oily and dry. Not combination skin, where one has dry skin on their cheeks but an oily t-zone. No, I can have a flaky patch that still, somehow, manages to be completely oily. I have tried pretty much everything, but the thing I had the most luck with was lightly exfoliating every day and using Clean and Clear

i have similar skin to yours, and i would absolutely recommend jojoba oil. i've found that since using jojoba oil, my dry patches are fewer and less dry, and i experience fewer blackheads and less oiliness. i don't even do the full-on OCM; i simply apply a moderate layer of jojoba oil all over my face within a couple minutes after getting out of the shower (it's best to apply oil when the pores are open, as you probably know). pay special attention to the dry/oily patches. it absorbs better than any oil or other moisturizer i've tried, and you can use it on the ends of your hair, too.
a couple notes:
-i, too, am WO on my face--baking soda would probably kill my face; i only exfoliate with the washcloth, usually daily
-i, too, am around 30 :)
-you should use only organic, 100% jojoba oil if possible

i hope this helps!
