First…I'm not a derm – please talk to yours! I'm lucky to not have sensitive skin. I have “mature” combo-oily-dehydrated skin. I live in a humid climate in summers. My areas of focus are on actives that are anti-aging, barrier protecting, and hydrating. Generally, I am looking for cost-effective options, but they still have to work, so when it makes sense to spend a little extra, I sure will! (Sensitive skin folks, please take care with many actives like Vitamin C, Niacinamide, Retinoids and Acids that can be difficult for people to use.)“This list contains affiliate links.
