In reply to Brittany. Brittany, I'm a big fan of Olay Total Effects moisturiser. I also use Paula's Choice moisturisers a lot too.

Love your blog! Thank you for sharing your research and findings. To your point about not needing a day/night time moisturizer unless you are getting your SPF/retinol from these sources: then what is your go to dual moisturizer that you build on? Can you please share your picks?

In reply to Becca. Hi Becca, thank you! So glad you're enjoying my blog. The piling can be due to several reasons. For example, it sometimes happens when you layer incompatible products. Water and oil don't mix. If you use a water-based serum and then an oil-based moisturiser, you can experience pilling. Did you change anything in your skincare routine recently? You can use the PM lotion in the morning too. Just remember to use sunscreen afterwards!

Hi Gio! I JUST discovered your blog and I. CAN’T. STOP. READING!! I currently use the CeraVe AM and PM moisturizer and have been for a few years now. However, the AM has just recently begun pilling on my face ( I do make sure to dry my face thoroughly and wait for any serums to absorb) and I find it to be extremely heavy and greasy! Once this bottle is done, I am not going to repurchase. The PM feels lightweight enough, has all of the “benefits” that the brand promises and I can put a sunscreen over it for the protection. Any ideas as to why the AM is doing this? Is using the PM an adequate enough moisturizer for day? Thank you for all that you do!
