I'm hoping this Who Should Try This? episode is a slight improvement over the first one! I picked out just three products to discuss and cut down how much I said about each one. Full reviews and a table of contents are provided after the video!

Even though I'm dry I can't stand heavy anything when it's hot outside. The humidity where I live is always high in the summer. I might like the DE gel. I'm currently using Sunday Riley Tidal and it's really nice. It doesn't moisturize as much as I need to some days but other days it's it perfect! It works best if your face is wet and you have used an essence with humectants in it first. I will check out the DE gel though. I think Sephora has it on sample for online orders right now.
I love the DE. I use it to mix with my tretinoin (2 pumps to a tiny dab of the lowest strength) so I don't get the dread lizard skin that I otherwise will inevitably get from it. It works beautifully. You are right though, on its own it isn't moisturizing enough to be my stand-alone moisturizer.

ReplyDeleteSee if you can get a sample and try cutting it with a lightweight moisturizer you like. It's a nice product, so I hope you enjoy it!

ReplyDeleteThat's a good use!
DeleteDid you ever try shade 38 in face and body? It had a very pink sounding name but was actually a very fair neutral shade.
ReplyDeleteYes, it was too pink for me and I hated the smell of the formula.
