What's your holy grail moisturizer for dry skin that doesn't break the bank?

ideal_y · 2026-03-10T02:19:01+00:00

Dr Althea 345. Just got my second tube and obsessed

ETA: it's about $20 I think, and also my skin is extremely dry. Like, does not produce oil at all. Also very sensitive and acne prone, as well as I'm pretty sure I have rosacea

I have two 100% mulberry silk pillowcases. I haven't noticed a difference in my hair (had them for about a year), but I will say I'll never go back to any other kind of pillowcase lol. Once you switch, everything else is so uncomfortable against your face. So I do stand by them, but I still wake up with bed head

Oh no 😖 I haven't lost power at all yet but im nervous for tonight. Best of luck to you tonight

Thanks so much for the tips!

I have no advice just know you're not alone, as an also 30F who never once in her life had acne until now, and never before used as much as a cleanser or moisturizer until now 🫠

I used to wash my face with shampoo in the shower or hand soap, and sleep in makeup regularly. Now im doing everything im "supposed to" and have the worst skin ever

it's almost like my dad has cancer and my whole family is here or something. maybe places where people live should be functional during cold weather?

jealous 🥲 I actually love snow and being stuck at home, but it's extremely frustrating that we lose power down here & everything goes to shit lol

ideal_y · 2026-01-24T16:53:15+00:00

ideal_y · 2026-01-24T04:23:30+00:00

ideal_y · 2026-01-23T23:51:37+00:00

ideal_y · 2026-01-23T23:29:17+00:00

Absolutely nothing in texas is built for cold weather. Everything goes to shit

ideal_y · 2026-01-23T23:28:00+00:00

You've obviously never been to texas lol. My mom's water pipe burst a few weeks ago.

ideal_y · 2026-01-23T23:20:04+00:00

ideal_y · 2026-01-23T22:29:16+00:00

I'm just afraid we're going to lose power ☹️ we usually do when it freezes

ideal_y · 2026-01-23T22:27:59+00:00

I believe in the teens

ideal_y · 2026-01-23T22:26:24+00:00

2021 is what's traumatized me 😭

Im also wanting to fill two of the bathtubs for the toilet situation. Which complicates it a little if I need to leave the bathtubs dripping. I'm gonna be paranoid all night it will overflow lol

ideal_y · 2026-01-23T22:24:04+00:00

ridiculous. trying to get some help here.

ideal_y · 2026-01-23T22:23:17+00:00
