You're going to think I'm crazy but Bioderma is also amazing at getting stains out of clothing!!! 🙊 Or if I spill makeup on anything while I'm getting ready I'll just take some Bioderma on a baby wipe and dab it up! I've saved so many stained things this way. It's liquid gold!

I started using another online dermatologist recommended skin therapy routine, or what she uses. I did it morning and night and it really worked!!! My husband looked at me after about 2 weeks and said You look pretty. You're looking younger, whats going on? I was shocked and that's when I took a closer look at my face and could actually see the difference. You guys/gals know what you're talking about for sure 😊❤️❤️❤️

I use the Bioderma and love it too. I do use waterproof mascara and it takes care of it with no problem. I moisten cotton pads, press lightly onto eye, let it sit there for 15-20 seconds, and then wipe. Takes care of all the makeup on the eye. Mascara, Liner, shadow !! It's fabulous.

La Roche Posay toleraine saved my skin. During the first months of covid my skin got bad (stress in combination with distance teaching and being a lot in the house and eating bad). Everything I applied on the skin made it worse. I decided to buy la roche toleraine and it felt so good on the skin. I think people like to use all the new and good looking products in their beautiful packages but at the end you have to do what is good for your skin. I now have a few products that I can always use without getting irritation: - la roche toleraine day and night creme - Olay retinol 24 max serum - paula's choice the unscrub - paula's choice 1% bha calm - paula's choice 30 spf defense daycream I'm still looking for a good cleanser that doesn't irritante my skin.

[@JanetSmith900]

I haven’t tried LRP moisturizer, but I just got the hydrating cleanser from them because I think my skin is not loving cerave, and it is an amazing cleanser. It doesn’t feel oily like cerave, it clears up my oily t Zone but does not dry my cheeks. So far I really like it.

I have very sensitive skin at age 54 and during the warmer months, I use the Walmart CeraVe lotion dupe (Equate Beauty Moisturizing Lotion, 12 Oz $8.98) on my face! The CeraVe lotion stings my face at times, but for some reason, the Walmart brand is so soothing and gentle. For a heavier moisturizer, this has been my go-to: ILLIYOON Ceramide Ato Cream (found on Amazon). Like you, I have tried MANY and these are two I always have on hand.

That micellar water is really good. I actually wash my face with the gentle Cera Ve cleanser max 3 times a week. Otherwise, the only thing I use to wash my face is Bioderma’s micellar water. My skin gets very dry and skipping cleanser is the only way that has proven to be effective. I use very gentle cleansers. In terms of face lotion, the best one I’ve had was from Vichy (Nutrilogie 2), fragrance free, like butter. Unfortunately it’s been discontinued. I’ve replaced it with CeraVE’s PM lotion but it still feels like it doesn’t give me enough hydration. Will give LRP tolleriane a try, it looks like it could work :)

Antioxidants, especially vitamin C, should be in airless, opaque packaging, otherwise they oxidize. A dropper bottle isn't airless. I wish more companies would use airless, opaque packaging for most products, since many skin care ingredients are sensitive to air & light

I swear by anything from the brand QV. I spent years trying to find things that work for my sensitive eczema prone skin and QV has been the only brand the I have found that has really helped my skin to recover from any flare ups and I haven't experienced any break outs aside from the occasional pimple (which is probably most likely caused by my not so healthy diet). I'm not sure if the brand is available internationally, but if you can get your hands on it then I recommend trying the gentle cleanser, the night cream, the purifying face mask, the sting free ointment with ceramides, and the calming and soothing moisturiser. Another huge plus about this brand is that the products are extremely affordable. Aside from QV, I also use The Ordinary Hyaluronic acid serum and the Cancer Council spf50 invisible matte moisturiser, which is also suitable for sensitive skin (fyi I have an olive skin tone and this cream doesn't leave a white cast).

Products I go back to, Hydro Boost Gel Cleanser, LRP Toleriane Cleanser, cream and night cream, Cicaplast balm, and Dermallergo serum, Avene Tolerance Cream, The Ordinary Buffet, Neogen Essence, Neutrogena hydro boost for dry sensitive skin (the one with no fragrance). Going to introduce Inkey List PHA in the next few weeks. Have been using the LRP 50+, but going to try your recommendation, the LRP bring chemical stings my eyes when I go swimming.

So glad I stumbled accross this Channel! I have dry and sensitive skin. Would love a night skin routine from you. My holy grail product is Kanebo Sensaii emulsion and B-oil from The Ordinary. I fond that oils in general helps with dryness. Xxx Marit

Skinnies Conquer SPF 50 is my HG sunscreen and my HG repair item is the Aveeno Dermexa Daily Emollient Cream. I love the 5% Mandelic Acid By Wishtrend, for exfoliation. Still working out my HG serum and moisturiser. I do not DIY skincare... However... My unconventional HG is 10+ UMF Manuka Honey. Quality skincare is hard to find and extremely expensive in New Zealand, that said, wow do we have Manuka Honey laying around everywhere. I use it for masking, and at the moment for cleansing as my sensitive, rosecea prone skin (and now entering winter) is adjusting to Adapalne, and this is so soothing and nourishing..... And yummy lol it is proving a success so far.
