Beauty Tips For Body Care
I'm hoping particularly for some suggestions for a fragrance-free, overnight moisturizer for wintertime. I have generally dry, sensitive skin. I find I need a lot more moisturizing help in the winter due to where I live (cold, dry, windy) & spending a lot of time outside.My skin is pretty sensitive and tends to react with redness. I have been using basically the same routine for years with no issues but have noticed my skin has been more red lately. I'm not sure if something in my routine has caused this or if my skin has changed.Some background, in case it matters: I struggled with acne in my teens and into my late-20s. Long and short, most of the acne treatments (some from a dermatologist, some on my own) all just irritated my skin more. By my 30s, I found that simpler was better for me. I now get the occasional breakout, usually around my period, but nothing to complain about.Right now, my main concern is dryness/tightness. I'm used to winter-related dryness, but I've been feeling it earlier in the season than usual.Current routine:AM:Rinse face with warm waterOlay Complete All Day Moisturizer Sensitive Skin - SPF 15Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen Lotion - SPF 55 (as needed)PM:Wash with Olay Gentle Foaming CleanserOlay Complete All Day Moisturizer Sensitive Skin (using now for lack of options)Occasionally: Aveeno Oat Mask with cucumber abstract (about one/week for the last 3-4 months)Things I've tried & had reactions to:Aveeno Ultra-Calming Daily Facial Moisturizer (instant reaction - pain, redness)Olay Regenerist Recovery Night Cream (OK at first but more redness overall during use)Dickinson's Witch Hazel Toner (OK at first but more redness overall during use)Paula's Choice Calm Redness Relief (instant reaction - redness)Paula's Choice Hydralight Toner (OK at first but more redness overall during use)Ursa Major Fortifying Face Balm (increased redness after only using 1-2/day for 1 week)Ursa Major Fantastic Face Wash (near instant reaction - redness)L'Oreal Clay Mask (forget which one exactly)Lumene - tried the Nordic Hydra Aerating Gel Mask & an overnight mask I can't remember the name of. Worked OK but the scent was overwhelmingI appreciate any advice!
