BYOMA Moisturizing Gel vs. Moisturizing Rich Cream | Arianna India

[@Emmiiillyyy]

I am considering getting the gel-cream I am just not too sure. My skin is sensitive but also dry and acne prone. I use tret every other day right now. I thought maybe the gel to cream might help with the flaking as for maybe as am moisturizer. I used to use la roche posay double repair it was more lighter weight cream and it would just make my skin sting. I am not too sure though

Usually when my skin burns I take that as a sign that I have a damaged barrier. I, too, have very dry, very sensitive, acne-prone skin & I use tretinoin. I've had to cut down on the frequency of using the tretinoin to 1-2x/week because of this. If I use it too often or dont give myself enough of a break in between my skin will get really dry, flaky, and become easily irritated when I use different products even if theyre simple ingredients. That being said, I have used that exact la roche posay moisturizer in the past & it also made my skin sting pretty bad so I discontinued use. I actually really like the BYOMA products because theyre formulated to heal the skin barrier. The gel cream was my favorite ❤
