Caudalie Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet

I've been using Caudalie Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet for just over 3 weeks. I got this after reading many good reviews and making sure the ingredients wouldn't clog my pores (which I've been struggling with lately). This moisturizer ticked everything I wanted in a moisturizer. I really like the consistency of this and the smooth feel of it on the skin. It doesn't have that oily feel that many moisturizers do. However, unfortunately this just doesn't moisturize the way I hoped. It absorbs quickly but my skin feels dry soon after. It does nothing for any drier patches. One good thing....it didn't break out my skin (yay!). This is a bit too pricey...the 40 ml tube will probably last another couple weeks. I usually buy moisturizer about every 3 months. Other reviews have said that this would be too rich for oily skin but I think this would be great for anyone with oilier skin. It just didn't help with moisturizing my drier winter skin. One other thing to note is that although this is meant for sensitive skin it contains fragrance (why?!). I really hoped this would have worked...I've been on the lookout for a moisturizer that provides hydration but doesn't break me out. Still on the hunt.....

Are there any moisturizers anyone can recommend or something that has worked for them? Combination (leaning towards drier in the winter), sensitive, acne prone skin....not the best combination!

Green People Foaming Face Wash

I've been using Kiehls Blue Herbal Gel Cleanser for the last 2 years but it was making my skin horribly dry and my acne wasn't clearing up anymore. So byebye Blue Herbal...time for a new face wash. I've been getting really interested in all the ingredients that go into skin care products, especially ones that are famous for clogging pores. Unfortunately the Blue Herbal Gel Cleanser had a few of these pore clogging ingredients (SLS, Sodium Chloride). Why would an anti-acne product be filled with ingredients that are meant to clog pores?! A lot of companies seem to take the easy way by putting in a couple of acne fighting ingredients but then filling it with the opposite. SO FRUSTRATING! So after going through countless online reviews, different skin care sites, and reading through the ingredient lists for products available online...I bought Green People Foaming Face Wash. This is gentle on skin and doesn't leave skin dry. This probably wouldn't be the best option for people with oily skin because even though it says "foaming" it takes quite a few pumps of the product for it to actually foam up on the skin. The one drawback on this cleanser is that it is horrible at washing off makeup. I use a micellar solution by La Roche Posay to take off my makeup first and then wash my face with this cleanser. What I don't like is the price and how much you get for that price. It's £10.95 (which is not expensive) BUT it's only 100 ml..I don't know long it's going to last. It's not great for getting rid of acne but it defnitely doesn't cause any. If you're looking for a basic and natural cleanser, this is it. I think I'll stick to this because it's one of the most gentle cleansers I've come across and with winter here, gentle is the way to go....can't rough up my already acne prone and dry skin.
