<Himalaya Pink Salt Daily Scrub & Body Wash>

I bought this for the scent. Soft and fresh. The fine scrub exfoliates lightly and skin doesn't feel dry after. Nice daily option.

<ILLIYOON Ceramide Ato Lotion>

After showering I usually go for a moisturizing body lotion. I hate anything too heavy so I prefer ones that absorb fast. This one makes my skin feel really soft after applying and I like that a lot. Especially in winter the long-lasting hydration is key for me and this one does a good job with that.

<Neutrogena Body Oil Light Sesame Formula>

On extra dry days I add body oil. I apply it lightly before lotion and my skin stays way more hydrated. It's basically a must-have for me during seasonal changes.

I’m trying to narrow it down and leave just a few. I have Rosacea. Please help

I'm a total skincare addict and I particularly love Korean products, especially sunscreens. I'm also a diehard fan of the Tatcha dewy skin cream - I've gone through at least 10 tubs, including jumbo sizes. I have relatively sensitive skin so I tend to avoid artificial fragrances and I don't use actives every night.

I've seen a real improvement with my skin in the past few months and I think it's a combination of the Anua azelaic acid (this is my second bottle), the Medik8 retinal and the Sunday Riley good genes. I had some issues with closed comedones but since starting those products, the closed comedones have cleared up and haven't returned - but bear in mind this took about 4-5 months. Consistency is key!!!

Recently treated myself to some new skincare, all of which is lovely but I still find myself turning to my cheaper tried-and-true products to get through the day! I have dry skin, with rosacea so I gravitate towards things designed for sensitive skin. \   Fancy skincare:\ Purito Oat-In Calming Gel Cream\ Nivea UV Deep Protect & Care Gel SPF 50\ Kiku Masamune Sake Brewing Emulsion\ Naturie Hatomugi Skin Conditioner\   Financially responsible skincare:\ Equate Daily Moisturizing Lotion Equate Ceramide Moisturizing Facial Lotion PM/ Banana Boat Sport Ultra SPF 50

Currently in use 1. Mediplus gel - got it in Japan a while back, figured the best way to use it is with my Foreo Bear mini sessions. It’s advertised as a all in one, lotion, emulsion. Stays long “wet” which allows the device to glide nicely. It plumps and hydrates the skin exceptionally but it has a sticky feeling to it. Won’t repurchase. Price was about 30 eur for 180g bottle.

1. Elixir Bouncing Moisture Lotion II (shiseido brand) - I really like it, hydrates and gives a glow to the skin, not sticky, contains fragrance, which I enjoy when it’s done well in cosmetics. It’s not a toner, has more viscosity and if you apply 2-3 layers you might not need anything else, in summer i.e. It’s def more high end skincare, reminds me of Ibuki line that shiseido had some time ago. 30 eur for 170ml, got it from Japan.

2. Elixir Bouncing Moisture Emulsion II - it’s liquid cream, basically what we would call a lotion in west. Really nice. Glowy, bouncy hydration, has fragrance. 30-35 eur for 130ml, got it from Japan.

3. Soon Jung 2xBarrier Cream - excellent affordable product to heal akin barrier. I had an outbreak of rosacea last summer and used only super gentle products to help heal skin along ivermectin. I compared this one to the La Roche Posay Toleriane Cream, same efficacy for me. 16 eur for 60ml on amazon.de

4. Dr. Jart Ceramidin - it’s nice, has a herbal scent like the entire yellow line. Dries matte on the skin. I got it for a really good price, would not repurchase for full RP.

5. Avene Cicalfate - my HG! Helped so much with my perioral dermatitis that I got due to using steroid nasal spray for pollen allergy. Anytime I feel my skin gets a bit more sensitive, I slather it at night and in the morning everything is good again. It’s a dense, oily paste, with a blue tint due tu copper, but glides nicely compared to a regular zinc paste. I prefer this one over LRP Cicaplast. 10-12 eur in the pharmacy

6. La Roche Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+ - this one was the first I got for my perioral dermatitis, didn’t really do much for me. I use it sometimes after exfoliation with acids. It’s handy in the house for minor burns or bug bites. 10 eur in the pharmacy

7. Biossance Squalane + probiotic gel moisturizer - this was the product that made make the post. I wanted to try Biossance for a really long time and now that I did I’m unimpressed :( Furthermore this product is not for sensitive skin, every time I use it there a light stinging. It absorbs quickly as it’s gel, doesn’t have much of a fragrance, can’t say I enjoy it. 35 eur with discount

8. Beauty of Joseon Revive Serum Snail Mucin and Ginseng - closest I got to try snail mucin :) still plan ti get to the cosrx one and see what’s the hype about. This one is ok, non irritating. Bot sure I would repurchase because of the next one. Price was 15 eur or so.

9. The Ordinary Multipeptides + Copper - ok, the hype is real, it’s that good! Calms down my skin when necessary and plumps really nicely. Will repurchase. Got it with a discount for 27 eur.

10. Hada Labo Premium Shirojyun Light - toner with hydroquinone. I have a bit of a melasma patch on the top of my nose, it looks like a shadow or dirt)) Tret and azelaic acid did nothing for it, so trying my luck with this one. 6-8 eur jn Japan

11. Laneige Creamskin Mist - pressurised mist, gives a glowy finish, got it for traveling to hydrate skin. Was a deal, 15 eur or so, probably because of older packaging.

12. The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% - all rounder, scalp, face, body. I use it sporadically, has an almost overnight effect.

Find myself getting more skincare minis lately, all of them are gift with purchase. One more pic for the little SDJ creams, they just look so cute together😊.

Simple Micellar Water 🏆

Btw Labmuffinbeautyscience recommended this as a leave on product for sensitive skin bc the solvent used is gentle and hydrating. I added a pump to the bottle for ease of use.

-spray on a greasy hairline. Remove sunscreen etc , wipe with a microfiber cloth -as a ‘dry shampoo’. Spray into hair and wipe with a fluffy microfiber cloth. It contains a bit of glycerin but will still clean hair. -spray on neck, chest and ears, use a soft microfiber cloth -after sunscreen application if you need clean palms spray it on and wipe. -occasionally as a morning cleanse, spray on and wipe. -when I can’t rinse my face (ex. to minimize risk of spreading a cold sore)

Garnier Micellar Water Sensitive Skin This irritates my sensitive skin. Using it up for -white stains of water resistant sunscreen from my arm on the car interior (door). -as a first cleanse if needed for makeup brushes

Simple Micellar Cleansing Wipes To freshen up my body in between on a day to night out. I keep one in the car.

Nuxe Very Rose Micellar Water XL 🆗 Bought it to have an refillable XL pump bottle but not a fan of the pump itself (2nd picture) as very little comes out.

I use a fine mist spray bottle (I refill NIOD mist) for at home and a travel size spray bottle in my makeup bag with mini microfiber pads.
