[Routine Help] NOT washing your face at night?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
Just a quick background on me. 25 year old male, very bad acne/oily skin from my teens onwards (generally my t-zone). Went on a course of accutane at the age of 19 and my acne was as good as cleared up, however a few years later my old oily skin came back and I now suffer with it daily. After various experimenting, I think a 'less is more' approach is what my skin seems to prefer. Too much cleansing and while my t-zone seems to appreciate it, my cheeks/mouth subsequently seems to get very dry. As a result, I think cleansing once a day seems to suit me better. However - I seem to read on this forum that most people do the majority of their cleansing at night/before bed? Due to my incredibly oily skin, I just feel completely gross all day if I don't wash my face in the morning, so it's got me into the habit of cleansing in the shower (I've started oil cleansing which seems to have helped), but then just splashing my face with water before I go to bed. This seems to be the opposite of what most people in here suggest however - is it a bad habit? So to break it down, my routine is as follows: Morning:Massage deep cleansing oil (DHC) all over faceRinse off in as cold/luke warm a shower as I can tolerateMoisturise (shine control tea tree & witch hazel moisturiser) Night:Splash face with waterLightly moisturise Is this a poorly informed routine to have? Should I be switching this round?
