Hi there! I'm (still) looking for my HG moisturizer. I have acne prone but easily dehydrated and sensitive skin. I would love something super hydrating and moisturizing but also not too thick. Thank you!!

moisturizer recommendations??

Hi! I am experiencing a lot of closed comedones. I used to have cystic acne but managed to clear most of it using differin. Now I am left with lots of skin texture, small bumps and tiny whiteheads. Is there any products or ingredient known to cause this? Or something else I might be doing? I will tag the products in my current routine. I will note thst my skin is feels dehydrated constantly. 

This is my routine currently
AM 
rinse with water
toner
iunik serum
barr moisturizer
spf


PM
cleansing balm
cleansing foam
toner
either; differin or azelaic acid (alternate days)
OR; BHA 1x a week ( or less if my skin is angry )
snail serum
iunik moisturizer
after differin I use illiyoon on top of iunik moisturizer


That's it! Any tip or advice is welcome. It could be hormones, food, sleep, I am at a loss. Thank you so much!

EFFECTIVENESS 💮: as a brightening product, I saw really good results using this! I had never really spent time trying to brighten my skin, but this really made a difference. My skin was a lot less dull after two weeks of daily use! With that being said, I saw no other changes in my skin.

APPLICATION 💮: oh how I love this packaging! It feels boujee, the texture is delightful and it melts into my skin like snow! You can feel the little beads dissolve as you apply the product. It's a thin consistency, perfect for all skin types imo!

MY RATING 💮: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I will absolutely empty this bottle! I was not expecting much of this product but I love using it in my daily routine. I feel as if my skin really starts to glow in the morning!

COMEDOGENIC INGREDIENTS: none

 EYE BURN ⚡: a tiny bit when it actually got into my eyes from rain or sweat.

MY RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is an absolute holy grail for me !! I struggled to find an spf I really liked and this is THE one! It doesn&#39;t feel greasy, doesn&#39;t break me out. My only concern is that it is quite expensive (in comparison to other spf). This is definitely great for dry&#47;dehydrated skin types, but my oily skin love love LOVED it too

MOISTURIZING: it is decently moisturizing. Would nog recommend this for dry skin types. For me it wasn't moisturizing enough.
HYDRATION: hydrates the skin nicely but does not provide my dehydrated skin with enough, I feel dry a while after using this
APPLICATION: the texture is lovely! It spreads very nicely and smoothly and absorbs instantly. Oily skin folks will love this.
THICCNESS: very lightweight, not thick at all.
SUFFOCATING: not at all. It feels like you are wearing no moisturizer at all.
LAYERING: as it is lightweight this layers very nicely. Love it under makeup etc.
SMELL: has a pretty strong tea tree smell imo. Personally I didn't love it.

PARABEN, SILICONE AND SULFATE FREE: yes

EFFECTIVENESS 💫: this feels very nice and hydrating, not much else to say about it!  It didn&#39;t irritate my skin.

APPLICATION ✨:  very thin consistency, identical to water. Absorbs quickly and does not leave the skin feeling sticky or tacky. It has no smell and a small amount goes a very long way!

MY RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
While this toner is definitely enjoyable, I feel like there are better products out there. It&#39;s affordable and gets the job done nicely, so I would definitely recommend it!

KEY INGREDIENTS: citric acid, madecasosside, panthenol
FUNGAL ACNE SAFE: yes
COMEDOGENIC INGREDIENTS: none
POSSIBLE IRRITANTS: none
PARABEN, SILICONE AND SULFATE FREE: yes

EFFECTIVENESS ✨: I feel like this is a great second cleanser. It cleanses well. As someone with easily dehydrated skin, this works well. It leaves me feeling fresh and clean without tightness or dryness.

STRIPPING ⚡: it doesn&#39;t feel stripping or drying. For a foam cleanser this is definitely very mild.

MY RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is a great basic, no fuss cleanser that gets the job done well. I have sensitive, acne prone skin and it doesn&#39;t cause any complications for me. It&#39;s nothing special, just a good staple!
