I stopped wearing all make up years ago when I went on maternity leave and had to cut costs everywhere. Recently I’ve been feeling pretty down on my looks and thought maybe a bit of light coverage would give back some confidence.

I’m looking for affordable recommendations for a light weight Bb cream or tinted moisturizer. My skin isn’t oily but on the dryer side and I’m pale as a ghost. I’m considering the highly recommended wet n wild tinted hydrator but it might be a big heavier than I want.

It’s so overwhelming going in to the store I have no idea what I’m looking at anymore. Appreciate any help I can get!

I know this has been posted a few times and I’ve read through others posts and comments but would like to share my own experience and hope to get some advice.

I met my now husband 5 years ago. Shortly after we started seeing each other I go a yeast infection for the first time in my life. It was easy to treat with over the counter remedies and I brushed it off. But then a month later it happened again….and again. I went to a walk in they did a swab and pretty much said oh sometimes this happens with new partners. It continued so I went to another walk in and another swab was done and the same advice given.

I went to a family doctor after this. He put me on boric acid suppositories twice a week with really no end date. Also gave me the standard advice “drink water, cotton underwear, probiotics etc”. Eventually I got pregnant and stopped taking the boric acid and never really went back to it.

I still keep getting yeast infections here and there and it’s unbelievably frustrating. My husband and I have both treated ourselves at the same time, we are very hygienic, we do all the things we’ve been told but it still continues. He was in a long term relationship before we met and never experienced this issue and I never had one in my life before we got together. I don’t know if there is anything else we can try but I’m sitting here in tears desperate for answers.
