Out of curiosity, what is it about the UltraRepair cream that makes it so much more expensive than for example Cerave moisturizing cream?? Is it that much more effective?

Colloidal oatmeal is an active ingredient, CeraVe doesn't have any actives.

Plus there are other ingredients in different concentrations in the formula are more expensive to source.

I love CeraVe and use it myself too. But when dealing with redness, irritation, eczema, etc. sometimes a soothing ingredient like colloidal oatmeal can make a big difference.

Also would you recommend it as a full body moisturizer or just for face? Thanks!!

Loving this. I came across something that might be up your alley.

It's called tretinoin. Apparently people are using this and are looking anywhere from 3-5 years younger. Might be worth a substack post if it passes your skin care standards.
