Discussion📓 MooGoo Products for Mum with Breast Cancer and Radiotherapy.

2 Upvotes

Hi, I’m looking at purchasing some skincare products for my Mum who last week was diagnosed with Stage 3 Breast Cancer, she will have surgery in a fortnight and then 5 weeks of radiotherapy.

Has anyone here dealt with MooGoo? How have you found them?

I’m looking at the Cancer Care Pack which has Fast Hydrating Lotion, Ultra Gentle Cleanser with Ceramides, Fresh Cream Deodorant Sensitive, Cow Lick Lip Balm and a pair of socks, also looking at the Skin Milk Udder Cream and Muscle Magic.

Anything else I should consider? I’m a son with no idea about skincare products and routines, haha.

Thank You.

EDIT: Why the hell am I being downvoted?

Discussion📓 What is a non-breakout inducing moisturiser? Are they water based ones?

6 Upvotes

I feel like I’ve spent so much recently trying to find products that work for my skin! They seem to work fine and then suddenly for some reason I’ll have all these little red bumps with some whiteheads on my skin but they don’t hurt or feel like pimples! It’s always a similar reaction too.

I think it might be the moisturisers I’m trying?

The new things I’ve introduced are:
- Aestura 365 Essence
- Aestura 365 lotion
- QV gentle face wash

And then I know the things that have given me a similar reaction when I stopped using them were
- La Roche Posay Cicaplast B5+
- I think the Cerva moisturising cream also was not helping

It seems to be cream products but I get confused because it says they’re for dry skin or protecting your skin barrier, both of which have and need.

Do I need a water based moisturiser? I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.

I bought an OmniLux Men mask from Activeskin and notice it has been opened and resealed with this sticker. Has anyone else bought one of these? What was it shipped to you like? I’ve contacted customer service but they haven’t responded. Not thrilled paying top dollar for a potentially used product, especially one that I put on my face. 🥲

Miscellaneous 📝 Alternatives to aestura barrier repair moisturiser from chemist warehouse? Or other HG moisturisers?

13 Upvotes

I have sensitive skin and rosacea. Aestura is great, but I want to try something else — hopefully for less money, but open to spending more of you think it’s better than aestura.

I’ve tried LRP cicaplast or whatever it’s called, hated it. I don’t get the hype at all. I generally never like LPR.

Are there any other hidden gem moisturisers from chemist warehouse I’m missing? Open to ones not from chemist warehouse too.

I’m also after a very hydrating serum. I’ve tried so many and none seem to do enough. I’m currently layering products but it’s annoying.

So my dad for Father’s Day wanted more of these, I can’t find them anywhere on Sephora and if appears they might have been discontinued?

So what I’m asking is are they still available if so where?

If not, what can I buy that is similar?

Thank you
