Dry skin? Ectoin! Dry eyes? Also Ectoin!

Dry skin? Ectoin! Dry eyes? Also Ectoin!

Hi there,

As someone that has gone through hell with sunscreens and skincare irritating my eyes, especially during sweaty summer days, Ectoin eye drops have been a game changer at the end of the day. Apparently, this ingredient has been in eye drops since early 2010s. It has definitely improved and almost eliminated my dry eyes (from all of the external factors). The ones I use are from Vizik (€9) with 2% Ectoin, but you should find other options in your region, since they are very common. Hope this helps! 👁️

Hi there!

Just wanted to share this hidden gem (Dermotis Sulphur 3%) we have in Romania. 3% sulfur wash, with a high glycerin concentration. Very gentle, but effective. 32lei (€6.5) at Farmacia Tei (Romania). I’ve emptied 2 tubes, have one in my shower, did wonders for my chest acne. Doesn’t smell bad, kinda herbal.

For my fellow European folks, it’s available on Amazon DE and Amazon UK.
