Recommendations for skin care

Spoiler
 

Hello! I’m looking for skincare products to prevent dry skin, refine skin texture, firm the skin, and reduce redness. My current shopping cart includes the Tower 28 spray, First Aid Beauty moisturizer, Glossier Super Bounce serum, and Paula’s Choice BHA. Do you guys have any additional recommendations or thoughts on my list? Thanks!!


Skin type: combination and sensitive

age: 21

Product I’m using now: La Roche Posay B5, Kiehls triple acid peel serum 

 

Re: Recommendations for skin care

Hi! I recommend the following to boost hydration and maintain a healthy skin barrier:

 

Dr. Jart+ Mini Ceramidin™ Skin Barrier Moisturizing Cream 0.5 oz / 15 ml 

 

Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench® Hyaluronic Cloud Rich Barrier Moisturizer 1.7 oz / 50 mL 

 

Skinfix barrier+ Strengthening and Moisturizing Triple Lipid-Peptide Refillable Cream with B-L3 3.3 ... 

 

TULA Skincare 24-7 Moisture Intense Ultra Hydrating Day & Night Cream with Hyaluronic Acid + Squalan... 


The INKEY List Polyglutamic Acid 

 

To refine skin texture, I suggest exfoliating 2-3 times a week (AHA & BHA) and use retinol/retinal (latter is more potent):

 

Right now, I’m loving Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare Alpha Beta® Extra Strength Daily Peel Pads for exfoliation although it’s very expensive. It also comes in regular strength and sensitive. 

For retinol/retinal, The Ordinary has a few options. Their strongest one is the The Ordinary Retinal 0.2% Emulsion Serum 0.5 oz / 15 ml (this is very potent so be careful).

 

There’s also:

 

Paula's Choice Clinical PRO Retinaldehyde Dual-Retinoid Treatment for Clear, Luminous Skin 1 oz / 30...

 

Murad Retinal ReSculpt Overnight Treatment 1 oz / 30 mL 

 

Youth To The People Retinal + Niacinamide Youth Serum 1 oz/ 30 mL 

 

Be sure to wear sunscreen during the day when using retinol/retinal as it can make your skin sensitive to the sun. 


Look into peptides to firm the skin; for redness, I heard great things about Dr. Jart+ Cicapair™ Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment SPF 30 1.7 fl. oz/ 50 mL 🙂
