Yeah, but you have to use a different kind of moisturizer - I have oily skin and use Dr. Lin Skincare Hydrating Gel After using it for a while, I actually don't have oily skin anymore.

u/docmedic · 7 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

>Cezanne high moist is a good sort of mashup between Hada labo and Kiku as well. It has the HA of hada and the ceramides of Kiku and comes in the same giant size as kiku for a similar price.

Hey, do you think the Cezanne would work as a moisturizer to replace the Dr. Lin gel? I use that for my acne (on tretinoin), and my mom uses it to get rid of her wrinkles, but it recently jumped from $10 to $18. Looking for a moisturizer, but this seems to be considered a toner (not sure what toners do)?

u/imaginarypunctuation · 5 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

i've read on here--and i'm sorry i can't provide you with a source--that even very dark-skinned PoC only have a "natural" spf of about 5. at most. so it's still very important that they wear sunscreen!

also, i have a suggestion about the moisturizer thing... if he doesn't like the feeling of creams, could you try a gel moisturizer? the ones i see recommended most here are the simple ultra-light gel moisturizer (cosDNA listing) and dr. lin's skincare daily hydrating gel (cosDNA).

Hi there!

I just wanted to let you know that Automod has removed your comment because it contains an Amazon referral link, which we don't allow in the sub.

Could you please edit the URL for the Dr Lin hydrating gel so that everything from (and including) "tag=" is removed? Here's the tag-free URL for an easy copy & paste:

Also, it looks like the Avene Emulsion may have an affiliate code in there as well. Could you edit the link to:

If you've done that, please reply to this message so I can approve your comment :D

Your skin might just be dehydrated honestly. I'm not going to say it's not fungal acne because it could be; if I were you.. I would just put together a routine that fights both.

This article is pretty popular on /r/skincareaddiction.. I assume you've read it but a quote from it: "if you have pityrosporum folliculitis you must avoid most oils and fatty acids". I don't have any oils in my routine because it always seemed like when I introduced any type of oil into my routine, I would break out (this is where I started becoming suspicious that I had fungal acne). As a result, I went ahead and removed all oils out of my routine.

Sebamed was a good choice to buy; I like that moisturizer but prefer Dr. Lin Skincare Daily Hydrating Gel because it felt more hydrating and less sticky (it's still sticky haha, but less). I use it in both my AM/PM routine right after I cleanse.

Also I'm a big fan of La Roche Posay because a lot of their products are oil free and help restore the moisture barrier.. they also don't contain the fatty alcohols I was talking about in my last comment. I use their cleanser and face moisturizer:

La Roche Posay - Toleraine Hydrating Gentle Cleanser

La Roche Posay - Toleriane Double Repair Moisturizer

Here's some videos (Video 1, Video 2) that convinced me that I had dehydrated skin and kind of go along with your feelings of nothing working. They might resonate with you too if you haven't seen them before.

u/bitter_caroline · 3 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

Yes, we took him off the shelves at our store last week.

is this it?

u/littlebitopretty · 3 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

I had the same problem with the Cerave. I loved how moisturizing it was, but alas, it did make my acne noticeably worse. All moisturizers with fatty alcohols do that to me eventually. I've tried the Neutrogena Oil-free for combination skin, and the Nivea cream as well. The first wasn't moisturizing enough and broke me out a little, the second wasn't bad but it wasn't amazing either. Nivea does have fragrance though, which I decided to cut out of my routine completely when my first mineral oil massage with baby oil burned my face (for the record, I tried again with pure mineral oil and it is now my HG for many things).

I started using Dr. Lin Skincare Daily Hydrating Gel after reading about it on here. OMG!! I am in love. It makes my skin feel just like it did when I was using the Cerave, if not better, and it doesn't break me out! The only other gel moisturizer I tried was the Simple Ultra-light Gel Moisturizer, which started to dry out my skin after a while. I haven't tried the DDMG, although everyone else seems to really like it. If you want a cheaper/drugstore option though, this one is amazing and it's only like $6 or $7 at CVS.

u/lookitsnichole · 2 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

I really like the Dr. Lin's Daily Hydrating Gel. It has hyalouronic acid, and some aloe, but it's pretty lightweight.

I use a heavier moisturizer at night to combat dryness from actives, because I don't really care if I'm greasy while sleeping. It seems to be a good compromise.

Dr. Lin Skincare Daily Hydrating Gel, 4 Ounce https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FTG6YLY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_X8ZKzbK1A4D1K

^ this is what I use

Sebamed Clear Face Care Gel https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003NTJJR0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_z9ZKzb51402MZ

^ I have never personally used this, but it is very basic/straightforward and receives good reviews

u/georgecloooney · 2 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

I have really oily skin (like a Starbucks napkin will be soaked after I put it over my face at the end of the day), and gel moisturizers have definitely cut down the oiliness compared to moisturizers the like CeraVe Moisturizing Cream.

I live in Michigan, and the gel moisturizers alone in the morning have been fine so far.

Simple Ultra-Light Gel Moisturizer is pretty good, and I'm currently test patching Dr. Lin Skincare Daily Hydrating Gel. Dr. Lin is a lot cheaper per ounce, but the Simple gel has a pump which I like since it's more hygienic. I think I might transfer Dr. Lin to a pump container.

Also, both have pretty good ratings on CosDNA.

u/Catmoose · 2 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

I... don't know if there's any difference other than the shape of the bottle, but this is the exact one I order lol same name and same coloring on the bottle but different bottle type?

Edit: And now that I'm at home and linking is easier, these are the exact moisturizers I used:

Dr. Lin Skincare Daily Hydrating Gel

Sebamed Clear Face Care Gel

u/19cs · 2 pointsr/SkincareAddiction

big fan of Dr. Lin moisturizing gel. I switched over from cerave to this because the gel was a lot more lightweight and better for the humid weather / it didn't break me out!

u/IntakeExhaust · 1 pointr/SkincareAddiction

So I've been doing my skincare regimen for awhile with issues and decided to add a sunscreen, but I've been having major issues with it burning my face. My current routine is this:

Cetaphil

Benzaclin (5%BP/1%clindamycin)

Dr. Lin Skincare Daily Hydrating Gel (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FTG6YLY)

All the regular sunscreens I tried were causing a burning (which I read may be due to avobenzone). So I ordered EltaMD UV Clear Facial Sunscreen (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002MSN3QQ)

It again caused a terrible burning sensation and my face turned bright red where I applied it. Does anyone have ideas for what may be causing this, or alternative sunscreens?

u/carousalcat · 1 pointr/SkincareAddiction

I really liked this one, they used to sell it at Ulta but don't anymore, the website says they sell it at Walmart if you want to pick it up and try it.

u/kjd5777 · 1 pointr/asktransgender

Maybe this is a silly question, but do you wear makeup at all? Many bb/cc-creams or foundations/concealers will minimize redness (depending on coverage goals) -- I've heard good things about IT Cosmetics "Bye Bye Redness" line, though it's not super cheap -- but I imagine there are drugstore alternatives.

Skincare wise, I find aloe to be soothing -- I use this toner after shaving, and also really like this moisturizer (if you end up saving for laser, I find it to be really soothing after that too, or sunburns in the summer!).

u/beingmyownrolemodel · 1 pointr/SkincareAddiction

That's awful. I used to buy the Sebamed gel for seven euros.

I second the Simple gel moisturizer. I have also seen people recommend Dr. Lin's Daily Hydrating Gel, although it does seem to have some citrus extracts.

I don't know if you know /r/AsianBeauty, or if you'd be willing to go down that road, but they also seem to have some really nice and simple aloe vera products. They also have a TON of light moisturizers you might like, the All In One ampoules, for example. They're giant and people seem to love them, although they might contain fragrance, I think. I've often seen people write that asian beauty products are cheaper/better value.

u/hermiones · 1 pointr/SkincareAddiction

Dr.Lin's Daily Hydrating Gel! If you're in the US it's available at CVS and Ulta (with a $3.50 off coupon online). It's soooo much cheaper than Hada Labo's gel and you're given more for your money.

I have dehydrated and dry skin and this has been awesome. I've emptied it and repurchased it 4 times now.

Full ingredients are in the link!

u/slothoncoffee · 1 pointr/SkincareAddiction

The thing you have to remember is that how someone else's skin reacts to a product has little to no bearing on how your skin will react to it.

There's no reason that dimethicone or glycerin should break you out unless you happen to also be sensitive to them. It would be impossible to avoid every ingredient that other people are sensitive to.

That being said, I also don't like Cerave in the tub. (It's not meant to be a facial moisturizer and a lot of people have issues with it so frankly, I don't understand why that is always this sub's first recommendation to people.) If you want a more hydrating gel moisturizer, I'd recommend Dr. Lin's, the Cosrx Aloe Moisture Cream, or the Benton Aloe Propolis Gel.

The Simple one isn't bad, but you can get a more hydrating gel moisturizer with a similar feel.

Washing your face in the morning vs splashing is also a personal choice. There's not a particular benefit to it unless you find that not washing in the morning contributes to acne for you.

u/mastiii · 1 pointr/SkincareAddiction

Dr. Lin Daily Hydrating Gel is a popular one. It's not 100% aloe, but I've used it and it looks just like aloe vera gel (no fragrance, totally clear, gel texture), which makes me believe it's mostly aloe. Aloe vera alone isn't very hydrating, so this moisturizer has hyaluronic acid and glycerin to help add some moisture to your skin. It's pretty lightweight.

Holika Holika 99% Aloe Soothing Gel is another popular one.

If you don't like those, I will say that aloe vera is really really easy to grow at home :)

u/Ramody · 1 pointr/AsianBeautyRehab

I don't know where you're located, but they sell it online at quite a few places.

What I usually do is go to either Walgreens or Target and order it in stores and get it shipped there so as to avoid the shipping charge.
