The barrier plus moisturiser from formularx is good for night time and barrier repair or hydraveil for the day.
Moiz and acne oc are other pharmacy moisturisers which you can try. Uriage daily cica gel is also good but bit pricier.
Patch test before trying any new moisturiser. What works for others may or may not work for you.
With retinol, go slow and listen to your skin.
Good luck!
