i've tried a few different body lotions and exfoliating products for my strawberry legs, but haven't found anything that makes a huge difference yet. i came across Transforming Body Lotion from Ameliorate while looking at other options, so i'm thinking about giving it a try.

i'm curious what other people have used for this. did you find a product that helped with the little dots on your legs, or is it more about finding the right combination of products?

I need some advice regarding my skin.
My skin is actually normal, not oily at all, but I have a weird issue: whenever I take a shower or wash my face, I get this annoying feeling that my skin isn't truly clean and feels greasy/dirty, especially around my nose. On top of that, I struggle with blackheads right on my nose and oily clogged pores (whiteheads) on the sides of it

My current routine is very simple: a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen.
Is there a specific product I should add (like Salicylic Acid or something else) to deeply clean my pores and get rid of this dirty/oily feeling without drying out my normal skin? Any tips would be really helpful!

Perdón pero me siento orgullosa de haber podido comprar este skincare 😅 hace rato lo quería y la verdad en argentina es caro! Y hace unas semanas pude comprarlo y lo amo!! Me deja la piel muy linda!! Jaja que opinan?

I use cleanser and moisturizer in the morning, and sallycylic acid cleanser and azelaic acid serum in the night (i have some rosacea and broken capillaries). I was considering gradual self tanning. But I'm not sure how to fit it or when to apply it.

Ich habe leichte Akne und nutze mittlerweile formelskin (weil ein Hautarzt Termin teilweise Monate braucht und mir dann immer extrem aggressive Cremes verschrieben wurden)

Ich hab super helle haut und dementsprechend bleiben pickelmale bei mir über Monate. meine Haut sieht immer viel schlechter aus als sie ist, da alles so langsam abheilt!

mir wurde der no cosmetic liquid illuminator empfohlen und ich werde ihn jetzt ganz vorsichtig in meine Routine integrieren. erstmal nur jeden zweiten Tag und punktuell.

haben Leute mit Akne hier Tipps und Erfahrungen zu? :) ihr wisst ja als Akne Patient ist man bei allem über vorsichtig

I am a mid 30s female looking for a bomb eye cream that is going to help with dark circles and fine lines! What are your budget friendly recs?!

So, I am getting married in about 20 months and I want to have the best skin ever. I am older, at 35, and am seeing so much conflicting information about when to use what and how often. Frankly, I’m feeling overwhelmed and confused.

I have combination skin, oily nose and chin, dry around the brows and normal everywhere else. On the whole, I have pretty good skin, some fine lines around the eyes, expression lines on the forehead and smile line around the mouth. I am also fat, like, very fat (as a descriptor, not a judgement). I plan to lose some weight for the wedding (not a drastic amount but enough I worry about loose skin). I have visible pores around the nose, chin and cheeks.

I have previously had a good skincare routine but it was a few years ago and I don’t remember what I was doing, but do remember the products I was using and that I staggered them, just not how. So, I was using:

- Elemis Pro-colleges cleansing balm
- Go-to foaming cleanser
- Summer Fridays cc me serum
- Sunday Riley Good Genes
- Sunday Riley Luna oil
- The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid
- The Ordinary Niacinamide
- Go-To Face Hero Oil
- Tatcha Water Crème (or Neutrogena hydro boost)

I know I liked all of these products but I don’t remember how to use them, what order to apply them, what time of day to apply them or how often (especially with the actives as Im starting from scratch again). I am also really open to more cost effective alternatives for these products as apparently past me was feeling very boujee.

Please, please, help me!

Hi guys!

I work on a bus. Because I’m immunocompromised, I wear a mask on the bus. I’m pretty good about sunscreen, but lately my eye area has been getting over irritated by any sunscreen with hives/teary eyes.

While I’m outside, I usually rely on sunglasses for eye area protection. But when wearing a mask on the bus, that would make me look weird (I even tried and my friend commented that it looks like I was hiding from the police, lol).

Are there any places online where you can get non-prescription glasses with the UV coating? I think normal glasses would look way less suspicious.

Or, do you have tips for keeping the eye area safe from UV rays when it’s really sensitive?

Thank you!

Recently made a big move across the country (Yay!), but my skin has taken a tough hit.

I’ve always had oily skin, and found a routine that basically perfected my skin to the best of its ability (Hyaluronic face wash + serum before bed, with serum in the mornings paired with sunscreen), but since moving over somewhere far more dry, my face has practically exploded in blackheads that just will not go away.

They show up in clusters on both my cheeks and forehead, and my picking disorder has turned my face into a dark spot minefield. I’m seriously struggling since I don’t wear makeup at all in my day to day besides the occasional outing with friends that’s maybe 3/4 times a year.

I tried a Salicylic face wash for a bit, but that only seemed to make the dryness worse, which in turn made my dark spots worse due to the constant peeling of said skin.

I’m loosing my mind here! I struggle to even look in the mirror due to this, and it seems like there’s a new cluster each morning when I wake up. Has anyone else dealt with this? If so, what did you do? Most advice seems vague, and if I can be honest, incredibly overwhelming, but I know my stress isn’t helping, so I want there to be some ease of concern.

Thank you for reading, and I appreciate any help I can get <3

So basically, I want to start an under-eye routine. I have some dark circles that I think are caused by a combination of pigmentation and vascular issues, as well as some fine lines. I’m looking for relatively affordable products, so I was thinking of using The INKEY List Caffeine Eye Cream in the morning and the Beauty of Joseon Revive Eye Serum at night, both paired with the DIEUX reusable eye masks. I also apply a vitamin C serum to my face every morning.

Would these be good products to start with? If so, how should I use them? And if not, what affordable products would you recommend instead?

Due to skin picking in high school and using some pretty intense topical treatments that did more harm than good, I'm left with this skin texture that just won't go away.

Does anyone have recommendations for products or treatments that may help?

AM Routine:

• Beauty of Joseon Red Bean Water Gel
• Skinfix Triple Lipid-Peptide Cream Barrier Moisturizer or Eucerin Urea Repair Day Face Cream
