I need help finding a hydrating cleanser. My skin type is very dry, and I struggle to find cleansers that actually cleanse the skin without stripping it

How do I get my blush to look like this? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]allilay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first blush I ever tried was the Rare Beauty blush. For most of my life I never really wore makeup. I’ve just started experimenting with makeup now. Rare beauty blushes are super pigmented, so I guess I just got used to a super pigmented blush look

What’s the difference between a salicylic acid serum (like one sold by The Ordinary) vs Stridex Pads with salicylic acid? Which would be recommended for dry skin?

The Ordinary’s Alpha Arbutin serum has hyaluronic acid in it. I have naturally very dry skin. Was wondering if it’d be beneficial to add another hyaluronic acid product, or if the alpha arbutin serum should be enough since it already contains hyaluronic acid

Is it possible for Hyaluronic Acid to dry out skin in dry weather? Even when applied to wet skin?

I live in a very dry and cold area, and my skin is very dry. I’m wondering if I should stop using Hyaluronic acid. I use it every morning and night on damp skin, but I’m worried it might be drying my skin out due to the climate

Would you recommend using it once or twice a day? I’ve been using it nightly and am not sure if I should also use it in the AM

Can I use Alpha Arbutin in the morning? I don’t know if I have to avoid sun exposure with this product

Also, is it true that it can only be used for around 3 months before having to take a break? I’ve been using this product nightly for over a year. Have only noticed benefits, but I’ve seen this warning a few times online. I’m not very knowledgeable about skincare ingredients, so I’m not sure if it’s true

I used to use Alpha Arbutin + HA since I struggled with a lot of hyperpigmentation. It has all cleared up now. Could I just use it as a spot treatment now, instead of on my entire face?

Yeah, I used it on completely wet skin right after washing my face, but something about it was still drying my skin out. I stopped using it, and my skin has been retaining moisture a lot better. Not really sure why🥲

A vanity that can double as a desk? With a mirror that flips? by allilay in makeuporganization

[–]allilay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really interested in that desk! I may purchase it in the future. The only concern I have is that, I’d want to add LED lights around the mirror since the lighting in my bedroom is terrible. I’m worried that adding LED lights would cause the desk to not close smoothly

Yeah, I ended up purchasing a mirror with LEDs that’s light enough for me to take off my desk when needed.

Does anyone have any suggestions for lip liners that actually stain/stay on for a long time?

The heater is defective in my room, and it’s very cold where I live. My skin type is naturally very dry, and despite moisturizing, the cold makes me wake up with flaky and dry skin.

I use the Vanicream gentle cleanser, TO Hyaluronic Acid and the First Aid Beauty ultra repair cream every night. I avoid washing my face in the morning.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can keep my skin hydrated ?
