it's funny, my mom gave me a big box of l'occitane for xmas but I am recently so sensitive to smells that I had to return it but I couldn't get almost anything there :(. Even the shea butter was too like - rich smelling. I got a big bottle of bubble bath figuring there I can appreciate smells better than on my skin, for some reason.

Anyway as an extremely white, british isles person I have exczema and I recommend cerave. but whatever works!

Heehee. I really like the loccitane shea butter because it’s sooo rich.

Arrrrgh this acne cream is working but also messing with my skin barrier. I have winter skin like Chicago or East coast winter!

Also that store stinks. I can’t get into over doing it in the smelly fragrances lately either! I have room spray and eucalyptus in my humidifier sometimes though.

yup Eucerin is my old gal from childhood! I use it on my kid (though also a fan of cetaphil right out of the bath). I went through a long phase of only using olive oil, which worked but I smelled like a fricassee.

Eucerin is amazing for body dry patches - I use it for Louie, who has a bit of eczema. I use this boomer hippy cream from New Mexico on my face and it is AMAZING for the california dryness - it eradicated some sort of what i think was a fungus on my lip that even the dermatologist prescribed cream wouldn't touch. It's from a company called Super Salve and I swear by many many of their products!

I also came here to say that you DO have the ability to find a mate. Like, WTF, V? Just because a relationship ends doesn't mean it wasn't great for a moment. It's not a problem that you didn't, like, marry as a child bride or a bride in her 30s and stay married for fucking ever. Thank god we women don't have to do that anymore. Staying in a long-term monogamous marriage doesn't make you a better person.
