MOISTURIZER
I've been using La Roche-Posay Toleriane moisturizer for over a year now, a moderate 3 on the Cosmetics Safety Database website. It works great during the summer months, but once the second month of winter hit, I realized that LRPT couldn't handle the dry. My skin was so tight!
I found Toleriane's boosted brother, La Roche-Posay Toleriane Riche, by looking through the propaganda included in the box. Riche is also a moderate 3 on the Cosmetics Database website.
Riche has a thicker texture that works well for the dry months. The two products are incredibly similar as far as ingredients go, with the Riche having an additional ingredient in Shea Butter.
If you find yourself in a similar sensitive skin situation as myself, I'd glance through the website or propaganda of your favorite skin care brand. You may find that they have a lighter lotion for summer and a heavier lotion for winter.
Additionally, you can use straight Shea Butter or another favorite oil. Moisturizers actually work by blocking the loss of moisture from the skin. Not necessarily adding moisture into the skin.
