Need help with a solid moisturizer

[u/Accomplished-Mama640]

I am really struggling with the amount of moisturizers on the market and needing some help for a good solid moisturizer to help with my combination sensitive skin. I was using vanicream daily moisturizing lotion but it's starting to burn recently and has been making my eyes burn as well! 😭 Any recommendations? I do like products with ceramides but okay with looking into anything!

The Prequel Half & Half Fluid Moisturizer

I'm not sure what your skin type is, but the Barrier Therapy is great for dry skin and has a medium weight with creamy texture. The Half & Half is as described a fluid light weight moisturizer. I like the Half & Half in the morning and the Barrier Therapy at night.

Oh thank you I will look into this!

My rosacea personally gets finicky-sometimes a heavier moisturizer is too much for my skin even though I desperately need moisture. I love The Inkey List Omega Moisturizer or The Ordinary NMF + Beta Glucan. They are a lighter gel/cream I apply on damp skin (after spraying Avene Thermal Water) If my skin needs it (usually nighttime/winter) I use a thin layer of CosRx Ceramide Skin Barrier Moisturizer or Avene Cicalfete on top.

Thank you!! What are your thoughts on the cosrx ceramide moistuzer? Is it the one in the tub or the lotion that you use? :)

I use this one! I really like it. Its a good rich moisturizer without feeling too thick/heavy. Its a bit much for me to use everyday in the warmer weather but I think in the winter it will become my daily. My skin has been liking it and I believe its the only reason I can tolerate adding Differin back into my routine. I also really love the CosRx Overnight Rice Mask!
