I am dry and prone to redness, so I’m definitely the target audience.

I found it here! Searched the Q&A comments till someone confirmed it was a glass bottle.

It’s the same brand that I used to get in a pink plastic tube but a different formula, I think.

I didn’t care for the pink tube, but I loooove their cream that comes in a similar brown glass bottle! I’m going to try out the COSRX snail cream one of these days.

Does anyone have a recommendation for an affordable cleansing oil or balm they like? I currently have one I really love but I can’t justify the $40 price tag anymore with the amount I have to use to get my sunscreen off every day

For oil cleansing, I just use Apricot kernel oil. Husband does too for skin and beard. My skin really seems to like it :woman_shrugging:

I like Heimish, and its price.

Do you have dry skin? I do and I use this. The consistency is more like a regular face wash but it’s really nice and has oils in it. FWIW I’ve tried some very expensive cleansers and I like this one better, but I’ll second @Bracken_Joy on oil cleansing, I use argan oil or olive oil as makeup remover and it works great, but I know a lot of people’s skin can’t tolerate pure oil.

+1, I got a bottle of grapeseed oil or something from the grocery store and just use that to get off the SRS BZNS sunscreen that would otherwise break me out. I wash it off with a generous portion of my regular face wash.

Seems like somebody stole my Good Molecules hyaluronic serum delivery :cry: unless there’s the off chance a neighbor grabbed it for safekeeping because I was gone for a few days.

If I were to use this, can I still use the vitamin C serum I use at night after it? Is it too much vitamin C?

I think you probably can because cleansers don’t do much for skin from what I’ve heard. You wash it off so quickly, ya know? Mostly it’s the sunscreen/make up removal and skin pH effects you’re looking for.

Yes, you can! I use a serum with C in it. I have heard some people experience photosensitivity from vitamin C but I haven’t (and I’m pretty fair with lots of freckles/moles).

Instead of optimizing and not getting anything, I went to Sephora and asked for help. As these hit expiries I’ll optimize a little more.

i bet clinique black honey would look nice on you! it’s fairly sheer so you can wear it as a lightly tinted balm or layer it up for more color. it feels nice on the lips.

I think Glossier does a decent job showing what their products would look like on multiple skin tones.
