Soothing treatment for very dry skin

My skin is dry, scaly and itchy after using Tretinoin. My skin still gets very dry but Soon Jung Balm helps make it better. I would say my dryness and itching was 8 out of 10 when I started using it a month ago (persistent dryness, discomfort moving face and neck, flaking and falling out all day which looks like severe dandruff) and now it's more like 1 or 2 out of 10. My skin has improved a lot. Not sure if it's entirely related to this balm, but I've used about six other moisturizers in the past four months to try to find a solution, and this balm matches the best moisturizer my skin has had since starting treatment has experienced. I usually apply it as needed in the morning after my first wash 2 or 3 times a day, especially when the skin around my eyes gets dry. My skin is still very flaky and this balm will not stop the flaking due to the nature of tretinoin. I would recommend misting your skin with water and then immediately applying this balm to lock in moisture. I really like this balm because I'm prone to acne and the balm doesn't clog pores. It doesn't stick and leaves my skin clean. It also doesn't irritate my eyes like other moisturizers. I can apply it directly to my eyelids and touch my lash line and my eyes don't sting. I also use Cerave Hyaluronic Facial Moisturizer at the same time as Soon Jung Balm, but if I had to choose just one, I would choose Soon Jung because I can apply it in different strengths, it feels protective, and it doesn't irritate my eyes.
