https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-sup...n/drg-20066521 Was it Paula who said that you don't really need a separate eye cream? I recall some beauty expert saying that this was just a racket to sell more products. I had to switch to a new product when they stopped making the Alpha Hydrox that I'd used for years. After quite a bit of research, I settled on this CeraVe product: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B098RBCQ4Z/ I can't say the results are dramatic, but I do use it under my eyes without irritation, and it seems overall beneficial for my skin. This product was in 2nd place in my research: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TVMFM5C

One way to tolerate retinol or adapalene (Differin) or any retinoid better is to put it on over your moisturizer and then put more moisturizer on top of it. Also, you don't need to use it every day - you can use it as "tolerated" - so once a week to a few times a week.
My skin has changed in recent years and has become more sensitive and prone to dryness. I used to be able to pile the stuff on - BHA, retinol, etc. I got a little too aggressive this week with trying to "improve" my skin and I'm taking a few days off to let things settle and then remind myself to go slow! This particular moisturizer by Eucerin is good if you have "over done it" https://www.eucerinus.com/products/s...in-balance-day Eucerin really has a lot of nice products - you don't hear much about them, but I find I tolerate their products very well. I also try not to use too much dimethicone in my skincare. I know it is not "supposed" to clog pores, but if I use a product where it is high up on the ingredient list my pores do look more clogged. I find that Eucerin and Cetaphil use less dimethicone than other brands and even have products that don't contain it at all. Donna |

I’m 63 and don’t have any wrinkles. I have been using Everyone Lotion for years. I usually buy mine at Walmart.
My arms started getting a bit crepey a few years back and this lotion put an end to it. I use it several times a day. Everyone Lotion is natural, vegan and has organic ingredients. Best of all, it’s cheap and smells great! Their liquid soap is wonderful too I don’t use any other skin care products. I think facial exercises also help.
