Lines/dark circles under the eyes
Hi, I am 21 years old and feel like I have visible wrinkles under my eyes and dark circles, it's a mix of genetics but also poor sleep, etc. I would really like to buy a product that can help a little at least so I look less tired. I have sensitive skin, could it be something for me? Should I maybe try something else that you can recommend? 🩷 I've heard a lot about retinol/retinal, etc. but maybe it makes my skin worse. Thanks in advance 🩷Translated from swedish
1 product in post Lines/dark circles under the eyes264 views- Skin therapist at Lyko3 daysHi Farah, These can definitely be a good complement to get moisture and boost the area around the eyes. Feel free to put them in the fridge for a cooling effect. For dark circles, you can check out products that contain caffeine, e.g. The Inkey List Caffeine Eye Cream: lyko.com/sv/the-inkey-list/the-inkey-list-caffeine-eye-cream-15-ml Retinol is good for lines, but since you are sensitive, a long acclimatization is needed, otherwise bakuchiol can also be a good idea. It is a natural form of retinol that is better for sensitive skin. So I can recommend this: lyko.com/sv/haruharu-wonder/haruharu-wonder-black-rice-bakuchiol-eye-cream-20ml?fromsearch=Haruharu%2BBlack%2BRice%2Bbakuchiol Wishing you a nice day! 🌺

Reaction
Hi, I think I’ve had a reaction on my face from this one because I accidentally applied it over another cream I had under my eyes, and Effaclar has active ingredients. I’ve been red and bumpy there for a few days now, should I maybe do something to get rid of it, perhaps use a recommended cream? Thanks in advance 🩷Translated from swedish

Effaclar contains active ingredients that can be a bit too much, especially in the sensitive area around the eyes, where the skin is thinner and more susceptible. My best tip right now is to completely pause that product until your skin calms down. Instead, focus on something gentle, moisturizing, and soothing – preferably without fragrance or active ingredients. A kind classic that often works great in such situations is La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5+ 40 ml. It helps to repair and strengthen the skin barrier 🤍 Also keep the area clean, avoid makeup there for now, and be sure to protect with SPF if you’re outside 🌤️ If it hasn’t improved in a few days, or if it gets worse, we recommend contacting healthcare for a proper assessment. We’re keeping our fingers crossed that your skin calms down quickly! Take care! 💛

Question
Hi, I have one at home and use it for my skin as I have pimples and pores, and something like this is supposed to help. I wonder if I should use something after it or if it's enough with just that? I use Clinsoothe Skin Purifier beforehand, but both have active ingredients. Should I avoid mixing the two in that case? Thanks in advance 🤍Translated from swedish
1 product in post Question2995 views- Customer service at Lyko3 monthsHey Farah 😊👋 I understand, so I think this one is a little too strong for you. I recommend you try this one that is specially developed for sensitive and reactive skin. The Toleriane Dermallergo series could be a good alternative if you need something soothing 😊👇 lyko.com/sv/la-roche-posay/la-roche-posay-toleriane-ultra-dermallergo-serum-20-ml Good luck 💗

Question 🥲
Hi. I made a mistake and used it all over my face. My cheeks are red and they won't go away. Should I avoid makeup? I have different products at home, cetaphil, la Roche posay toleriane, la Roche posay effaclar (k) and vichy 89 moisturizer. Should I avoid them because they have active ingredients?😢 thanks in advanceTranslated from swedish
1 product in post Question 🥲3126 views- Farmaceut på Lyko5 monthsHey Farah✨ I understand, and this cleanser can be too drying and irritating for certain skin types. I recommend that you only use gentle and soothing products like LRP Toleriane, which you have at home, it's a good alternative. You can wait with the other products. Use as little as possible on your skin to let it rest and recover. If you have caring and fragrance-free makeup, it's fine to use it depending on what you prefer, but I also recommend a sunscreen during the day🙏🏼🌞 Give it a few days, and hopefully, it feels better soon. Wishing you a lovely day🤍

Question
Hi. I was thinking about maybe clicking this home, but I wonder what ingredients to avoid applying with it so it doesn't trigger. Can you just use it at night without any cream afterwards, or might you get dry? I use it from effaclar M la Roche posay Thanks in advance for the answer 🤔Translated from swedish
1 product in post Question2379 views- Customer service at Lyko5 monthsHey How fun that you’re interested in this beauty Ingredients to be a bit careful with when using in the same routine as this are active ingredients like BHA/AHA acids. High concentrations of Vitamin C should also be approached with caution. But they work really well to have in different routines. I absolutely recommend using a moisturizing cream on top! Also, it’s important to use SPF during the day, as the skin becomes more sensitive to sunlight when using retinol Take care and good luck!

Tips/ product
Hey hey. I would love some tips on how to minimize my pores on my face, they are everywhere on my face. It might be because I’ve shaved/waxed/epilated and haven’t taken care of my skin properly. I have sensitive skin so I don’t think exfoliating is good for my skin. What else can I do myself, for example after I’ve waxed? Is there any good product otherwise? I’ve bought many products that haven’t helped much since my skin is sensitive. Thanks in advance🤗🤗Translated from swedish

Rosacea
Hey, I have been trying to find a face cream for my sensitive skin for a long time. My caregiver said I should avoid products that have alcohol/glycolic acid/salicylic acid. It has been really hard to find a good one, and I've clicked on many that haven't worked for my skin :( I bought La Roche-Posay Toleriane, which was supposed to be good for my skin, but it gave me more redness. I see that this contains products that might not be so good for my skin. Is there anyone else you recommend for my rosacea skin, not very thick but for dry skin, etc. Thanks in advance 🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️Translated from swedish
1 product in post Rosacea306 views- Skin therapist at Lyko7 monthsHi Farah! This does not contain any of the ingredients you mentioned; drying alcohol (alcohol denat), glycolic acid, or salicylic acid as it often states. This is made for rosacea specifically, so that doesn't automatically mean it always fits Also check out lyko.com/sv/purito/purito-b5-panthenol-re-barrier-cream-80-ml Take care!

Rosacea
Hey, I have rosacea and I'm trying to find sunscreen without alcohol since it's supposed to be bad for my skin. But it feels like all sunscreens have it, I also don't want it to be too greasy since that apparently clogs the pores, etc., but I have dry skin, etc. Which one would you recommend? 💕Translated from swedish
1 product in post Rosacea2438 views- Farmaceut på Lyko8 monthsHey Farah✨ I understand and think it's great that you're considering this since you have Rosacea, which is a sensitive skin condition, just as you mentioned yourself. Of course, I will help you with this, and I can warmly recommend this one: lyko.com/sv/suntique/suntique-i-m-medi-100--zinc-sun-50ml?fromsearch=immedi, which is perfect for your skin's sensitivity and condition🤭😊 I hope you enjoy this and have a really nice day🎈

Rosacea
Hey hey Does it really have no alcohol content? I have rosacea and have been prescribed cream, and I've been advised not to use products that contain alcohol. I used to use La Roche-Posay Dermallergo, and it worked super well on my skin since I have dry sensitive skin, until I realized it triggered my rosacea. Do you recommend any other product that can be used if you have rosacea that doesn't contain alcohol and is for dry skin :) Thanks in advance.Translated from swedish
1 product in post Rosacea3661 views- Customer service at Lyko8 monthsHello there Farah! 🌟👋 I understand your concern, especially considering rosacea and sensitive skin. The La Roche-Posay Toleriane Sensitive Crème contains no alcohol, making it a good option for you if you want to avoid this ingredient. It is formulated to soothe and hydrate dry and sensitive skin, but it’s always good to be cautious if you have rosacea.❤️ Since you’ve had issues with previous products, I would also recommend looking at other options that are specifically developed for sensitive skin and free from potential irritants. Here are some suggestions: lyko.com/en/bioderma/bioderma-sensibio-ar-40-ml lyko.com/en/bioderma/bioderma-sensibio-defensive-serum-30-ml?fromsearch=Bioderma%2BSensibio%2BSerum Take care! 🤗
