Happy Monday, Beauty Insider Community! 🤩 On the first Monday of every month, we like to hold time to say "hello" to new faces in the BIC (last Monday was a holiday in the US, so we just pushed it out a week 😅). If you're new to the Community (or if you've been lurking for a while and finally decided to start posting yourself), we'd love to get to know you! Hit the "Reply" button on the original post and tell us a bit about yourself - those of us who have been in Community for a while, please join me in welcoming our new friends. 🧡

Hey everyone! I’m Bree. I’ve been a beauty insider for months but this is my first time posting in the community. I’m a licensed cosmetologist who has always been passionate about the in’s and out’s of the beauty world. Now, after having 3 little ones, I’ve been diving more deeply into beauty as a way to practice more self care for myself and pour more into me. I’ve fallen in love with exploring fragrances and as of recently have been trying to get deeper into skincare. Ive finally figured out my skin type and I want to add more serums/products to help with minimizing pores, brightening my face and achieve that glass skin look. Looking forward to learning and experiencing more🥰🫶🏽. Oh! And if I could splurge on any beauty product for myself this season, it would be the BURBERRY Her Elixir Eau de Parfum Intense 3.4 oz / 100 mL parfum spray 

Most of my current skincare products: 

Tatcha The Matcha Cleanse Daily Clarifying Gel Cleanser 5 oz / 150 ml 

LANEIGE Cream Skin Refillable Toner & Moisturizer with Ceramides and Peptides 

Tatcha Mini The Water Cream 0.34 oz / 10 mL 

LANEIGE Lip Glowy Lightweight Hydration Balm with Shea Butter Mango 

LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask Intense Hydration with Vitamin C Berry 

LANEIGE Mini Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cream Moisturizer for Moisture Barrier Repair 0.67 oz / 20 ml

Welcome to the community @LuxeLifeBree 💖 A journey of self care is a beautiful experience, I think you'll find lots of fun along the way here in BIC. 

Ooh I have seen this toner mentioned a few times,

LANEIGE Cream Skin Refillable Toner & Moisturizer with Ceramides and Peptides and I'm soooo curious about it. You enjoy it?

[LuxeLifeBree]

I do! It definitely makes my skin feel hydrated and moisturized! 

[CynthieLu]

That sounds auh-mazing! @LuxeLifeBree 💖 I keep this on my loves list but I think I'm going to move it to my cart one day soon. 😉 Have you used many products with ceramides?

Hi everyone! I’m new to the community and excited to learn more. I deal with eczema so I’m always looking for recs and honest feedback. I want to explore more skincare so any eczema girlies here that have good recs for vitamin C serum/lotion I’m all ears. I had a severe reaction to Ole Hendricksen one. Cant wait to e-meet more folks! 😊

[Mellmars1185]

@riridaybyday Welcome to BIC! Sorry I don't have any recommendations. There are some other members that might be able to share some feedback! @CynthieLu I believe?

[CynthieLu]

I do have a little experience with it @Mellmars1185 thank you for the tag. @riridaybyday Welcome to BIC! 💖

Personally for me, when it was bad, getting a prescription from my doctor and following thier advice worked best. Once it was under control it took me awhile to find out what worked for my skin and what didn't. 

I don't use any actives if my skin is red or angry. 

Products with ceramides my skin seems to love, but everyone is different and so is our skin.

Patting my skin dry, avoiding rubbing it with a towel was very helpful. Skipping hot showers and going for warm instead.

These products work well for me but everyone is different. I've heard good things from others about Tower28 and I've used Skinfix when my skin is really suffering.

My routine right now is mostly,

Wash:

If I'm double cleansing starting with The INKEY List Mini Oat Cleansing Balm 1.7 oz/ 50 mL and finishing with

Glow Recipe Avocado Ceramide Moisture Barrier Cleanser 5 oz / 150 mL 

Serums

The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Eye Serum 0.5 oz / 15 mL 

The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Oil Control Serum  

Moisturizer

Glow Recipe Plum Plump Refillable Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer 

Vitamin C I've enjoyed is

Sunday Riley C.E.O. 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum 1 oz/ 30 mL but I would not use it t personally if I was having a break out.

Welcome to BIC @riridaybyday ! I hope you find some great eczema products here. You might want to check out Nécessaire The Body Serum - With Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide + Ceramide 5.1 oz/ 150 mL .... or maybe not? I thought this was an eczema endorsed product but it's no longer in the description now but they are fragrance free.
