Beauty Tips For Body Care
Routine:AM - Splash face with water, moisturize with Cerave in the tub on wet skin, Neutrogena Clear Face SPF 55PM - Neutral face wash for sensitive skin, wait 25 minutes, Tretinoin 0.05%, wait 25 minutes, Cerave in the tub + vaseline as an occlusive.My skin is dry. Always has been, now made worse by the tretinoin which I have used for 9 months (switched from 0.025% to 0.05% a month ago). Using vaseline at night helps for sure, but still sometime during the day my skin starts to flake around the mouth and becomes dry and dull looking all over, accentuating fine lines and making me look older than I am. Because of the sunscreen I can't really reapply moisturizer several times a day. The result is the same if I buffer the tretinoin with moisturizer before. EDIT: I can't wear any makeup, BB-cream, tinted moisturizer, anything without it accentuating the dryness and looking awful, which sucks because my skin is riddled with years of acne scars and uneven tone.I have tried TO hyaluronic acid in the morning before moisturizing, a few times now. Every time I have developed big pimples already on the same DAY, in areas I am not normally breaking out, like under my eyes. I tried to add TO squalane oil to my moisturizer, and I started getting these teeny tiny whiteheads all over. I have also tried rosehip seed oil which had the same result as squalane. I have tried OCM with sunflower oil and got a massive cystic acne breakout within a few days.I've also tried a few thicker moisturizers designed for very dry skin and all have broken me out. Cerave seems to be the only one that doesn't and I'm afraid to spend more money on moisturizers only to experience breakouts. The breakouts I get from heavier moisturizers are not whiteheads/pimples but more like hundreds of clogged pores/skin colored bumps and texture all over my cheeks.
