Hi, everyone! I’m really strict on only using cruelty free / vegan products. For some reason, I can’t seem to find sufficient information on if Neogen is truly cruelty free; it seems like the internet has conflicting answers. What’s your opinion? I really wanted to try their green tea cleanser, but I won’t buy anything until I know that no animals had to suffer for it :)

Is Neogen really Cruelty Free?

Has anyone with sensitive or dry skin tried this mask? I’m considering buying it, as an esthitician recommended salicylic acid to me, but my skin is so dry that I’m scared lol.

The Ordinary Salicylic Acid Mask

Hey, everyone! I was just curious if anyone else noticed a slight burning sensation when using the Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask. My skin is super sensitive and can react to things with very simple and soothing ingredients, so I’m not sure if this is the fault of the mask or if my skin is just irritated today. I just got this mask and I’m not sure if I should try to return it.

Burning from Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask?

I’ve been using the High-Efficiency Face Cleaner for a few days and I’ve been noticing some more pimples on my forehead. I already had what looked like closed comedones there to begin with. I just wanted to know if anyone has used this product, or brand in general and may have advice :)

Thoughts on Hylamide?

Hey guys, I wanted to know how you deal with using retinoids in the winter. I use Tretinoin 0.025% as prescribed by my derm (persistent acne 😫 I’ve been using Tretinoin for 3 years but I can’t go up in strength because my skin is so sensitive and dry). Lately I’ve resorted to using a gentle oil based cleanser once a day, using two moisturizers, and incorporating lots of hyaluronic acid. Here’s my routine for night time with retinoids, what’s yours? Any suggestions?

Retinoids in the winter?

It’s not inherently bad, but I wish it didn’t have retinol in it because I use Tretinoin at night. It doesn’t cause me extra irritation, and if you want to try retinol, this is probably a great way for you to start.

I LOVE this. It really exfoliates my skin without irritation, works better for me than anything else. I’ve used Drunk Elephant Baby Facial, Mandelic acid, etc, and nothing works as well as this for me because it doesn’t dry out my skin.

I don’t see a downside to this product at all, other than you wouldn’t want to use it around your eyes.

I LOVE everything about this. It melts makeup off almost instantly. I have noticed that my active skincare ingredients work better when I use this cleansing balm before application. It feels moisturizing, almost like actual skincare opposed to just removing sunscreen and makeup.
