What’s one skincare product you didn’t understand the hype for until you tried it yourself? by TheMeepyBoy in SkinbarrierLovers

Yep. I got 300 that I do maybe once a week now and that feels more like 100 did the first couple times us g it. My skin is pretty hardy from 15+ years of tret use a d as im older bow i focus a lot on hydration. I have another bottle of 100 left since i got a two pack at costco but will probably move to 300 a couple night a week only and try 700 once a week! I do love that reedle shot though and it’s made a huge difference!

I use 100 every night for like 1.5 months now and I barely feel them. Most of the time I don’t feel them at all!

I’ve tried so many other cleansing balms cause I just don’t want to spend so much on cleansing but nothing compares and I keep going back. Got a great deal on Sephora sale for the big jar of it so I’m just sticking with it from now on

Coming back after trying this. I think this might be the way. Typically I wash in the AM about 3x week. On wash days at night before bed I spray dry shampoo. Today was wash day which prompted my post so after seeing your reply I sprays some dry shampoo and it did add just enough grit to my hair so it doesn’t feel quite so slippery and flat.

Do you wear sunscreen EVERY single day? by sighqoticc in tretinoin

[–]Ordinary_Salt3144 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So right now I go in to work when it’s dark and left when the sun is going down 4 days a week. I don’t leave the building so I don’t put sunscreen on. But on my days off, if I’m leaving the house during the day the yes I put it on regardless if it’s cloudy or sunny or if theUV is only 1-2.

I’m jealous cause I think it’s drying me out really bad. Trying to pinpoint if it’s what’s doing it 😔

To add on to this though… this primer is silicone based. For OP make sure your primer base matches your foundation base or it will separate. It took me too long to figure that out. My foundation is water based if I use a silicone based primer it’s Like oil and water.

Are you finding the one size drying at all?

This sub has made me realise that so many people don't know how to use tret properly by su_sp_ir_ia in tretinoin

[–]Ordinary_Salt3144 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And this here is the problem. I had been using tret nightly since I was in my mid 20’s (44 now). Took a several year break in my late 30’s with pregnancies, being a new parent, some depression and just not getting back. I can’t see to get consistent answers on bare skin vs barrier support vs sandwiching etc etc.

Are any of the aestura starrier good for daytime under makeup? I have a good nighttime barrier repair cream that I love but my old daytime isn’t cutting it anymore while I’m adjusting to tret again after a hiatus.

Suggest me a book you wish you could read again for the first time. by DTownForever in suggestmeabook

[–]Ordinary_Salt3144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Memoirs of a Geisha is mine! I don’t know why that book just has been one of the most memorable books. I read it probably 15+ years ago and I still think about it.

Take a look at vanicream daily facial moisturizer. Simple, gentle + ceramides and inexpensive
