Ok, so I hear a lot about "taking care of your skin barrier" and "focusing on repairing skin" when there's breakouts, overal inflammation, irritation...
HOWEVER
A lot of products that are mentioned in social media, articles, etc. usually are not or do not look suitable for Oily, Combination and Acne prone skin.
I know *ceramides* are important but many brands that sell products with ceramides target Dry skin.

What are products for repairing/taking care of the skin barrier suitable for Oily skin?
And more than products, ingredients that should be taking into consideration?

If you know any, please add for what step of the routine is. Thank you.

Here's the ones I've personally heard of:
- Cocokind barrier serum > Heard a lot about it, not avaliable where I live.
- Cicaplast Balm B5 and Gel B5 > I prefer the Gel for Oily skin. They do help wit inflammation and redness after breakouts, but they also make small whiteheads to appear.

Skin barrier "repair" for oily skin?

I'm looking for an easy to use cleanser (liquid or foamy, better with a pump, etc.) for a mature skin.
Some pigmentation, wrinkles, looking for brightening, hidration...
Sorry, no double cleansing and no balm.

I've seen the Toleriane (LRP) one and wanted to know what other people think.

Also, is there anything from Some by mi, Joseon, Innisfree, instree with those characteristics?
They are easy to buy online from where I am.

From Some by mi I've seen the snail truecica. Thoughts? I prefer the format of the LRP one because of the pump but that kind of bottle also works.

Thank you!

Good cleanser for mature skin?

I am looking for some good moisturizer for daylight for mature skin (wrinkles, some dark patches, etc.).

Mostly full of probiotics, peptides, ceramides, with niacinamide, you now the rest.

I found that this one with Peptides from Ole Her. is ideal and there is an almost dupe (for me better) from Neogen, the "dermalogy V. Biome" 

But none of them have spf.

(Side note: this is for my mother whom I'm still trying to convince that she has to use spf everyday. She could use any of those above as moisturizer and apply spf afterwards, but if I have an all-in-one it will be easier to make sure she's wearing spf).

One that I've found with spf is the Clinique Superdefense.
There is a spf 40 that says it's a "gel" (doesn't look like it to me).
And a spf 25 that is a cream.
BUT.
Some reviews claim that they itch, both versions. And some say the cream is very sticky and not a nice feel.

> Please, comment here if you've tried any of those and what are your thoughts on them. Specially texture-wise.

> Comment if you know any moisturizer for mature skin that includes spf.

Thank you <3

*UPDATE*

Hey everyone. Little update because I see quite some people following the post but not a lot of answers so hopefully this is useful for everyone.

I kept researching after I wrote the post and the comments confirmed what I suspected: better to get a sunscreen that doubles as moisturizer.

The beauty of Joseon, the Isntree hyaluronic gel sunscreen, the Skin1004 centella and the Face Republic Purity Sun were good for a lightweight and nice spf.

Sadly, none of them come in jar format, which I find nicer than a plastic squeeze-tube. But we can't have it all.

I use the BJ one and I'm acne prone.
But I was between the Isntree one and the F.R one because they have different types of hyaluronic acid, tocopherol and glycerin and other hydrating ingredients.

I decided to go with the Face Republic one because it also includes vitamin C, which is what I was hoping I'd find in a moisturizer.
I'm gonna sell it to my mother as a "moisturizer with hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and C that also has UV protection". ;)

Still curious about the Clinique moisturizer with spf. Mostly to see if it is sticky, if the texture is not nice and if it makes the skin itchy.

Oh, and I'm going with the Neogen v.biome for night cream.

Thank you!

Good day cream for mature skin? (With Spf if possible).

It does not have SPF.
Until I found skincare, I didn't know it was important to have SPF for lips (unless you go skiing or something like that).

If it is exposed to very high temperatures (i.e summer) for hours, you may want to leave it in the fridge for half an hour or so.
Then again, I've always done this with any lip balm that I've had during the hot days. It is nice when it is a little bit cool and yeah, shea butter/cocoa butter or similar are going to melt in high temperatures. It is normal.

Note for Picky: I undestant that Shea butter is bad for oily skin but this is a LIP BALM. There should be some filter because any lipbalm is going to have some rich buttery-like ingredient that is bad for oily skin but good for lips.

Lip balms are something I need, specially in harash winter and sweating in hot summer. But I'm not very fond of them... Until I found this one.
Most lip balms that are actually effective have a horrible medicine-like smell and taste (and it is impossible to avoid the ocasional accidental lick, it's on your lips!).
I don't have sensitive skin but I do have a sensitive nose and I favour products withour parfume/scent.
This lip balm is thick and creamy in consistency (a must for a lipbalm to last) while having a soft citrus-like scent.
It is a very mild, gentle smell that I personally also found pleasant (but, overall, the smell is not strong).
It even tastes "good" if you happen to forget it is there and lick your lips.

The package is a robust aluminium tin that can be cleaned and repurposed or recycled (in my first one, after I finished, I put some tinted SPF for traveling). Personally, tins are better that the standard lip bar because –and, if you are clumsy like me, you'll know– if the plastic tube falls, it is most likely broken forever. 
This tin has dents and marks of every time it has met the floor, but it is still working as always; cap screwing and unscrewing correctly, all the balm in place.
I find cylindric tubes really anoying and those squeeze-soft plastic tubes are a hassle to use once they are half empty.

Plus, LUSH is avaliable in many countries and sends to other where there is no main shop. It is not one of those "miracle products" that are only in one country and cost a fortune to ship.

The open of the tube is quite wide, squeeze carefully because a little goes a long way.
I believe there are stronger acids out there. This is good for a start.

Best point: absolutely NO irritation. 
I have acne wounds, from poped pimples and etc. Some half-healing and you can imagine the rest.
It doesn't sting, it doesn't even tickle even with freshly "open" wounds.
The area under my nose is very sensitive. This doesn't hurt.
Very easy to use. Nice and exfoliating, leaves the skin soft.
AHA is a lighter acid, best for sensitive skin.
It doesn't have a strong smell. And it doesn't linger. 
It lasted for almost a year.


Very sticky when applied until some time passes and it dries.
Small package for the price.
The type of pump makes it easy to collect residue and dried sunscreen.

Great layer of protection once dried.
Not bad for acne.
