Best moisturizer for barrier repair?

Soothe by Rodan and Fields, hands down. It helps to replenish your skin's natural moisturizing factors as it soothes(hence the name, lol), conditions and nourishes dry skin. It's non comodogenic too!

Butylene Glycol

I've used products with butylene glycol in them and didn't experience any break outs I would say give it a shot - if you do experience new break outs, then you'll know what it's from and can cut it o...

Does benzoyl peroxide bleach or degrade plastic glasses?

I haven't personally experienced this, but I don't see why not - the stuff is powerful! It bleaches pillowcases and towels; I don't see why it couldn't do the same to something that sits on your face ...

Why did my acne return?

Worried about getting Pseudo tumor Cerebri

What is the prescription, if you don't mind me asking? That's so frustrating that the doctor wouldn't re-prescribe it unless you saw them! Especially if it was working. I hope you get it prescribed ag...

Haven't had acne in 4 years -- here's my story, and your potential cure.

Glad the minimalist trick worked for you! I tried that but it didn't help any. Luckily after 13 years of cystic acne, I finally am clear!

Oily skin, More acne, bad moisturizer

The purging is definitely normal. It sucks, but it's normal! Give it some more time before giving up. You could cut back on the amount of BP to see if that helps with the dryness. For drugstore b...

Can I do regimen only at night?

If it suggests twice a day, I would use twice a day (even if it is a pain in the butt). You'll get the best results that way.

Bad break out caused by hyaluronic acid???

I wouldn't think it's the hylarounic acid, but it definitely could be caused by the inflammation from the derma-roller. Try cutting back (not sure how often you currently use it, but maybe try every c...

Dehydrated & Acne Prone Skin

If you find just general dryness and not flakiness, I would get a non-comodegenic moisturizer and use it 2-3 times a day! Should notice a difference.
