The many phases of me: Smooth pink, or rough and purple

Last year, I decided to experiment with a new daily moisturizer for my skin. As summer was ending and winter approaching, I knew my skin would be prone to cracking and dryness. Typically, I’ve found success with moisturizers that have a slimy, gel-like consistency, as they provide intense hydration for both my hair and face. However, I also wanted a product that would nourish my skin from within, promoting beauty internally as well.

In the past, I’ve experimented with Aveeno products, but unfortunately, they didn’t yield satisfactory results for me. The facial wash I tried left my skin even drier and redder. When I mentioned to my mom that I was considering giving Aveeno another try, she shared her own experience, noting that it left her skin blotchy and red.
