Do You Have To Use A Different Moisturizer At Night Than During The Day?

05 March 2013 - 05:35 PM

I just got the Neutrogena Rapid Tone repair day and night moisturizers. The only difference I've really noticed is a slightly different texture, and a lack of SPF in the night version. So, why are there two different ones. I know many people use different ones at night than during the day. Is this necessary? Is it due to the SPF, more potent ingredients, the difference in texture, or what? I was previously using the Aveeno Positively Radiant Moisturizer, and I used it both day and night and didn't really see any negative effects. Help! :)

Ingredients To Avoid?!

04 March 2013 - 12:32 PM

Alright, so my acne is what I believe to be moderate. I don't break out very much anymore, but when I do, it's a big cyst farm on my face! :( I can go most days without wearing makeup, but some days, I just like to have a little coverage. When I was younger, I thought I needed the heaviest of the heavy, but I've grown to realize that sheer-medium coverage is all I Need. I've been experimenting with bb creams lately and have not been impressed at all! What are some ingredients in cosmetics that go directly onto skin (foundation, powders, tinted moisturizer, etc.) that I should avoid. My skin is extremely sensitive so all of the advice you awesome folks can give me will be much appreciated! By me AND my face. :)

Is Washing Three Times A Day Too Much?

04 March 2013 - 11:29 AM

I just began using CeraVe, and I find it very gentle with my skin. I have oily skin, with what I believe to be moderate acne (will post pictures later when I don't have my spot treatment on), and live in a humid climate. Sometimes, I wash my face three times a day. I really try not to because I don't want to strip beneficial oils, but is it okay on occasion?
