[REVIEW] The best affordable moisturizers in Germany!
Hey guys. After 4 years of searching for a good moisturizer in Germany, that have non-irritating and great ingredients, does not cause Fungal acne or aggravate it, which costs less than 10 EURO, I have found 3 moisturizers that I love and would recommend to you all! Note: I have combination to oily and acne prone skin.
- CeraVe Feuchtigkeitscreme für trockene bis sehr trockene Haut (50 ml - 2,99 EURO*)
I know, I know. This is for dry skin. BUT. I WOULD SAY THAT THIS IS MY PERSONAL FAVOURITE. This is the second cheapest compared to the other two. The texture is creamy but it absorbs really fast into the skin. At first I am skeptical too to try this moisturizer. But but but, OMG. I think I have found my holy grail of moisturizer. Haha. It does not contains any fragrances, non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic, helps in restoring the skin barrier, contains ceramides and also hyaluronic acid. This moisturizer makes my skin very supple and does not sting even once! Even near my nose that are very sensitive! I would 100% recommend this moisturizer! I use this moisturizer for PM routine to lock the serums that I used. This product surprisingly does not leave your skin sticky! You can buy this at a pharmacy or even online pharmacy :)
- ISANA MED Hydro Feuchtigkeitscreme (50 ml - 2,49 EURO)
OMG, this moisturizer. I use this product for AM routine. It removes excess oil and leaves your skin very hydrated. The pH value is 5,5 (nice). Contains hyaluronic acid and Betain, plus the ingredients listed are minimal, not too complicated. The fragrance might be the downside of this product, it smells kinda weird. BUT so far it does not irritate my skin, my skin is loving this product. The texture is translucent, and is easy to spread on your face, kinda like a gel. It leaves the skin a matt finishing when it dries, and its not sticky. Plus your skin wont feel tight. Its the cheapest of all three, and I would recommend to those that have dehydrated skin. Be sure to apply them on a wet face though so that it can lock the moisture. I always spray a good amount of BALEA MED ULTRA SENSITiVE GESICHTSWASSER on my skin before applying any moisturizer. You can buy it in Rossmann, where they put their brands such as Sebamed, Salthouse and other medical care related products.
3. Sebamed Unreine Haut Pflege Gel (50 ml - 6,49 EURO)
This was my holy grail back then when I first discovered that I had fungal acne. This saved my skin. It has a clear gel texture and contains some good ingredients like pathenol, allantoin and sodium hyaluronate. Does not have fragrances which is good for sensitive skin. I stopped using this moisturizer because I discovered the two above, and this product leaves my skin tight and shiny (not because of oiliness but the tightness). I would recommend this to people that have oily skin. I'm not sure about you lot, I know that Sebamed sells their product in both Rossmann and DM, but this Pflege Gel is only available in Müller in my city.
