So I'm wondering if its normal (and if yes, why) my skin reacts differently to the same products?

I realised this the first time I used the Kiehl's moisturiser. It used to be my go-to for winter as it was a little bit thicker than my normal one, and suddenly this year I had a skin reaction to it. Damaged my skin barrier so had to take time to "fix" it, i tried again and same thing..

Now I pay more attention and I realised that sometime my skin reacts one day to my toner (innifree Hyaluronic skin lotion) and nothing for weeks. Then it will be to something else.. I'm so very confused so I'd like to know about your personnal opinions/histories..


Ps: the picture is my skin (so bad at taking pictures). I've always been told I had a combination skin (oily T-zone and normal the rest) very very dehydrated and with enlarged pores. I'm using mostly Niacinamide 4 times a week, retinol 3 pm a week, clay mask once a week and HA everyday. Salicylic acid cleanser once a week too.

My skin has more personalities than me...

Hello everyone, I was wondering if you could help me pick. 
I'm hesitating between some products (times 2) and would like your opinions on the products please :)

I'm mixed very DEHYDRATED skin type and I love the purple complex ones from numbuzin. 

First questions is between NUMBUZiN n° 2-3-5 ?

Second is between Benton Ceramide 10000ppm and Benton 

I have enlarged pores on my cheeks and sebaceous filaments on my nose that I'm working on. I'm only looking for one day cream and one night cream but I wanted opinions after reading all comments on all of those !

Thank you :)

This or that ?

It's a little sticky so it was hard a little to spread. It was very liquid at first so my guess is that it's combined to my HA serum. 

I'm giving 4 stars for now because I'm only starting. I'll give myself a month amd will take picture regularly. 
Why did I choose this product ? I heard it was good for damaged barrier skin, and winter hasn't been kind to my skin so I'm focusing on taking care of it now. 
I'm combo dehydrated skin with enlarged pores and sensitive when it's cold. 

It's weird but it feels like I'm already using 1/3 of the bottle even if I don't apply too much 

I've been using it everyday on my AM routine for about a week and I love the feeling. It's soft, not clogging pores, I love the light texture and the bottle is cute. I wanted to buy again, but I might check the other numbuzin moisturisers, but so far I'm really happy with it and I recommend. 

I hate the packaging. I was used to the heimish Balm whose packaging was great. Here you need to unscrew the whole thing if you want to keep the spatula and the protective plastic. So confusing. 

The smell is very nice and the product itself is very good to use. It doesn't strip off my skin (I use it daily on my nose for double cleansing, and twice a week on my whole face). I love the texture, it melts easily and quick in my palms. 

I might be using too little or too much because I'm not sure yet, otherwise no complaints so far !

Time to add this gorgeous little serum I've had my eyes on for a while into my skincare routine. Bear in mind that I will update if there's any change because for now I've only started BUT let me tell you that I understand the hype so far. 

I've decided to focus on my hydration and my skin barrier for a while so this is why my routine is slowly changing but I couldn't be more happy about it. I have breakouts on my face after a facial i did few days ago so I'm waiting for them to vanish but my skis has never felt plump like that in AGES 

And OMG the serum bottle is bigger than what you usually get !

10 in 1 product.. yet didn't succeed in one haha. 
So forst of all it made my skin dryer, its the same consistency as the water so I feel like i had to use so much product. I'll try again when it's "warm" so I can see if my skin tolerated it better. Why did I get the bigger bottle 🤣
