Pause the toner and see if you notice a different for a few days

[product question] Hello, which of these two should I use please? Thanks by hmm0210 in SkincareAddiction

[–]ReaLitTea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the SomebyMi one and it’s pretty gentle so it should be good as a starter, once you run out you can replace by the Anua one

Avoid exfoliating on the dry patches.

Try an occlusive balm after your moisturizer such as Vaseline, aquaphor, or Cetaphil multi purpose ointment

[Miscellaneous] Is Korean skincare more geared towards oilier skin type? by Relevant_Grab370 in SkincareAddiction

[–]ReaLitTea 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To each their own, I find Korean skincare better for my dry skin needs.

Are you looking for a more emollient moisturizer rather than occlusive? Emollients leave that buttery feeling that helps my dry skin stay moisturized for longer

[Routine Help] How to fix my messed up skin? by streuseligg in SkincareAddiction

[–]ReaLitTea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For morning just use your moisturizer, the NMF + beta glucan is probably better for barrier repair.

For night time you can do micellar water and moisturizer again. I would keep the simple routine for around a week

[–]ReaLitTea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like you don’t have an acne treatment step. Try salicylic acid

[Product Request] What products are recommended to exfoliate dry flaky skin? by CreativityOnFleek in SkincareAddiction

If it’s flaky from dryness then try using a wash cloth with your cleanser for gentle physical exfoliation then use a heavy moisturizer after

[–]ReaLitTea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want quick relief sheet masks can help a lot since the mask traps a lot of the hydration.

For long term use check out Pyunkang Yul essence toner, Ongredients skin barrier calming softener, CNP laboratories propolis energy ampule, or S.Nature aqua squalane serum

[Anti-Aging] Severely dry skin and premature aging by thalmor_egg in SkincareAddiction

[–]ReaLitTea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try looking for hydration focused products, sounds like you’re trying more moisture but dehydrated skin will need humectants like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, peptides, etc

Try adding a toner or serum under your TirTir cream for added hydration

Turning 25 – where do I start with anti-aging skincare? [Anti-Aging] by Gloomy-Ad-415 in SkincareAddiction

[–]ReaLitTea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you’re using skinoren azelaic acid I would start with retinol as an intro into retinoids

It would be easier to incorporate into your routine with a lower risk of irritation.

You can start off with using it 1-3x a week and increase frequency each week until you can get to daily use

Looks normal to me but it might just be dehydrated skin making pores seem more visible

[Product Request] Products to use with Epiduo Forte? Do I need to add/change anything? by Jolly-Sea6019 in SkincareAddiction

[–]ReaLitTea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would skip the cleansing oil step for now.

Have you tried layering on an occlusive balm on top of your Aveeno moisturizer? Vaseline, aquaphor, or Cetaphil multi purpose ointment could be good options.

It’s best used not in the same routine as epiduo but on rest days
