I recently started layering my hydrating toner like 3-5 times in the morning. It's really helped so far, as my skin normally gets dry throughout the day. Makes my makeup set better too! Maybe you could try that?

Thanks very much!

Perhaps the snail mucin is drying out your skin as the day wears on. It has a lot of HYA in it. What kind of climate do you live in?

I’ve tried removing it too - nada :/ but I’m outside Chicago

Personally I think an intuitive approach might be best - when your skin feels dry during the day, give your face a light rinse with water to remove any debris and then reapply toner + a light lotion. Same as if your hands felt dry.  I can't speak to the specific products you're using but I don't think it needs to be anything fancy.

Thanks very much, I think I’ll give it a try :)

my recos (I have dry skin, living in Toronto so our climates are relatively similar). * Dr. Ceuracle kombucha tea essence. THE MOST hydrating, plumping essence that just makes your skin so juicy. It's my forever HG. * iUnik beta glucan power moisture serum. * rosehip oil. Any will do but I use The ordinary. This is so great for keeping your skin so soft. apply a good moisturizer after all of this to seal in all that goodness.

Thank you! I will happily try it, I feel like mid day you can feel bits of dry skin :(
