Whatever lotion or cream I put on my face immediately gets absorbed and my skin is dry for the rest of the day. I also have super dry and itchy skin the rest of my body and have to use lotion every day. What do you recommend for aging dry skin that I can get at sephora?


Hydrate well, buy a humidifier, take fish oil capsules, use Cerave or Vanicream moisturizers. Avoid long or hot showers or baths. Vaseline and aquaphor are great for body.

I’ve found that my dry skin problems during the day can be helped a lot by overnight products. I use the Youth to the People deep moisture cream at night followed by their super berry oil and super berry mask before bed. I top all of that with a layer of Hanni’s the fatty and it has helped SO much with dryness the next day. Adding the skin drip serum has helped as well. I use their polypeptide cream in the morning and have also found that a good spritz with Lyst’s setting spray after doing my makeup helps with dryness as well.

+1000 once I stopped spending $$$ at Sephora and switched to all cream products my skin finally calmed down and actually feels hydrated. I’ll never waste my pennies again. Get the Vanicream cream in the tub and apply it as thick as a mask an hour before bed. Magic.

Vanicream is terrible its waxy but doesn't absorb or moisturize. Creave has alcohol and parabens. Aveeno works well with very few ingredients.

Agree! I came home from Seoul with a bag full of skincare and the Aestura cream is my favorite purchase of all. I have sandpaper texture from my rosacea and this stuff works great. I use this as my daytime moisturizer. For nighttime, I double moisturize with a different barrier cream and then top it all with Avene Cicalfate because my skin loves zinc. Besides Cicalfate, you could conclude your skincare with a Korean sleeping pack like the one from Purito.


I just saw that Jimin from BTS uses Aestura (Disney+ show Are You Sure) and I want to try it.


Love BTS. Thanks for sharing this! It’s really great cream. The cream mist from Aestura is also amazing. I use it generously several times a day and a bottle lasts forever. It’s a very fine mist and extremely hydrating. Definitely gives that Korean glass skin look just like all BTS members.

I like the CeraVe Skin Renewing Night Cream. I was also desperate for something extra moisturizing in the winter and invested in a couple of La Mer products. I loved the La Mer "The Renewing Oil" but it broke me out. My derm suggested CeraVe and it has been just as moisturizing without the breakouts (and a fraction of the price).

I really like Belif's "The True Cream Moisturizing Bomb" -- it feels very hydrating without being oily
