Default Not Weight Related: Dry Skin in the Morning That's Oily By Afternoon?! Help!

Okay, so I've looked around on the internet for some solutions to my skin problems. I am talking about facial skin btw. I can't seem to find anything and wondered if any of you guys had suggestions or the same problem. Everyone is so helpful here!

Basically, in the morning, after I shower and everything, my skin is so dry it's flaking terribly. I moisturize as soon as I get out of the shower, but when I go to do my makeup, it's already flaking and makeup only makes it look worse. So of course, I apply more lotion...

So by lunch time, my face is OILY! Like, really bad. My makeup looks like splotchy and clumpy and it just looks terrible. I avoid looking in mirrors too much, but I know what it looks like and when I get home and check it out, it's embarassing.

What can I do? I don't feel like I overwash my face...just once a day. And I drink plenty of water...
