These are some of my favorite skincare products that work for my sensitive/dry skin (DSNW)

I have never used retinol before and have easily irritated skin. I haven’t had any issues with this formula and after ~2-3 weeks of consistent use I’m noticing my skin is markedly softer in texture and slightly less congested. I think my skin purged ...
VERSED Press Restart Gentle Retinol Serum

I love that you can use this every day without it irritating the skin, which most body acne products tend to do for me. Effective and non-drying, I would feel so clean and refreshed after using it out the shower. I just emptied it and using regular b...

Got it as a gift and really liked it, debating repurchase just because of the price point but it feels nice and not stripping or clogging.
Great Skin Double Cleanse

I keep it in my bag at all times. Love that it’s a mineral powder and can be used over makeup or alone, it’s perfect. Would make a great gift for anyone who cares about sun protection but doesn’t like how the liquid formulations feel on their skin.
(Re)setting Mineral Powder SPF 35

Feels quite soothing and works very well at trapping moisture in the skin, I’m not sure how well it would work for those with oily skin but for my dry sensitive skin it’s done the job. 8/10

Super hydrating and luxurious texture, a little goes a long way ⛲️ great for dryness, was gentle on my sensitive skin so big points for that 🩵
Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cream Moisturizer with Squalane | LANEIGE

Honestly the only non-aluminum deodorant I've ever used that both works and doesn't activate my skin. Wait a little bit if you just shaved otherwise it will sting.
Nonapeptide + AHA 6% Underarm Roll-On

I haven’t looked into the ingredients enough but it mostly feels like a slightly thicker hyaluronic acid. It’s nice and soothing, I use it after cleansing and before my retinol.
The INKEY List Ectoin Hydro-Barrier Serum

This might technically be my biggest skincare/body splurge and I only get it once in a blue moon for that reason alone. it smells so incredibly yummy, i think almond doesnt get the flowers it deserves as a scent because it’s a lighter softer gourmand...
Amande (Almond) Shower Oil | L'Occitane en Provence

I really enjoy the way this body wash feels, I can't tell if it's made a long term difference in body odor but it was gentle on my skin and the bottle genuinely lasted months.
Naturium Mandelic Acid Body Wash

I use this multiple times a day and it genuinely helps keep my skin clean and prevent breakouts. my skin is prone to congestion so this has been great to clear it out without over cleansing and stripping my face from the natural oils. 10/10
Hypochlorous Acid Spray for Face & Skin

Super hydrating and nourishing, no irritation at all. I layer with another lightly scented body wash after
Aveeno Skin Relief Body Wash, Fragrance-Free

A simple but essential first step of the routine. I use this with a sillicone food grade body scrubber instead of loofas because they're easier to keep clean.
Dove Beauty Bar Soap Sensitive

Doesn't irritate the skin around my eyes at all, not sure if it's placebo or not but I do feel like it makes my eyes feel more awake
Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG Depuffing Eye Serum for Dark Circles - The Ordinary
 
Phoebe Ficklin profile picture
My favorite sunscreen currently, I've had no white cast or piling under makeup, it genuinely feels like skincare. I will say though my skin is typically dry, so if your skin is oily it might make you feel extra shiny so just be aware it's quite glowy...
