Hello! Any suggesting on affordable retinol products (better if available in the Philippines)? Currently using Differin (Galderma) 0.1% but it’s too expensive for me. Help a girl out please 😭

Affordable Retinols?

Anybody have a moisturizer recommendation? Preferably something lightweight for oily, sensitive skin. Also something affordable (and can easily be found on a drugstore) for a student : (

How to prevent/manage purging

I’m usually oily during the warmer months but suddenly because of the weather I feel like my skin became dry. There are some flaky patches on my skin and my face feels uncomfortable after washing before I use moisturizer. I am using the same products all year round, so I do not think the difference is from the products I use.

Can my skin type change?

Dries out my skin, stings a bit because of the alcohol and it smells like alcohol as well

There is fragrance : ( so probably not good for very sensitive skin

Absorbs easily. Affordable. Very soothing especially when used cold.

Good product, hydrating and calming, does not irritate my skin. I use this twice a day and so far, no adverse reactions. This works with treatments like niacinamide and vitamin c.

If you are sensitive to smell, it can be a bit off-putting because it smells a bit like glue

So far very good! I’ve been using it for two weeks and I can see some improvement on my skin texture. VERY AFFORDABLE AS WELL
