@koko1029 Ah, you’re an adapalene user. That’s a good acne fighter, though dry patches are a common side effect. If you use it every night: have you tried using it every other night instead? It’ll still work, just not as quickly as it will when used nightly. If you’re using prescription strength adapalene (prescribed by a dermatologist or other doctor), talk with your doc before easing up on use frequency if you wanna try doing that. Something else that might help with dryness is The Ordinary 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil 1 oz/ 30 mL: patch-test a tiny amount for a couple weeks on a small area of your jaw or neck, to see if your skin will tolerate it. If that goes well: squeeze just 1 or 2 drops into your hand, then rub your palms together and apply a bit of that oil just to your dry areas. You can apply it before or after your moisturizer. Oils in general can make flaky dry patches feel smoother, and rosehip oil’s quite moisturizing—though I don’t recommend using it instead of a cream moisturizer. I don’t know which Aestura moisturizer you use (they make several), but I think most of them contain squalane: a very good moisturizer that’s usually great for dry skin, but can sometimes feel heavy/greasy on oily skin. I have mostly-dry combo skin that has a love-hate relationship with squalane. 😅 For me, it’s great in the winter (I live in Chicago) but can swamp my oily nose area in hot weather. I’m not saying you should avoid squalane. You might wanna try a different moisturizer for a few weeks though, especially if the one you’re using’s not doing enough for your dry patches. A good basic moisturizer is Vanicream Moisturizing Cream, or the lighter weight Vanicream Moisturizing Lotion: both contain petrolatum, the most occlusive (water loss preventing) skincare ingredient on the market that, contrary to popular myth, isn’t pore-clogging. Whenever my reactive skin throws a tantrum (usually a bad reaction to something), I switch from my usual moisturizer (CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion) to Vanicream’s lotion until my skin calms the heck down. And if I haven’t already rambled enough, one more note: adapalene takes time and consistency to do its job. If you’ve been using it only for 1-3 weeks so far, give it more time—6-8 weeks at least—to show any closed comedones results. When in doubt, consult a dermatologist or your primary care doctor.

@Cattyjmaccallum I'm not an expert, but have had allergic reactions to products and what you describe sounds like it.I will suggest, try eliminating one product for a week and see if it helps. Do it with each product. Hth.

@SophiaMartineez Jo Malone London English Pear & Freesia Cologne it is such a lovely feminine fragrance Hourglass Unlocked Instant Extensions Lengthening Mascara after looking for years this us my dream mascara

@SophiaMartineez If I’m trying to avoid any sort of glow or dewiness, I reach for DIOR Dior Forever Matte Skincare Foundation I love the finish and staying power - I wore it for my own wedding and it’s what I reach for if I need a dependable foundation with good coverage.

Thanks Titian06! I have a similar problem and nothing is helping me. I recently visited Canadian Pharmacy Partner and am thinking about looking for gluconic acid. It helps a few of my friends and this problem is much less visible. I need to try it too

Getting into skincare—you're not alone! For a simple, budget-friendly combo skin routine, I start with a gentle cleanser, then use a light moisturizer and a retinol at night for fine lines.
