Half and Half Peptides and Ceramides Fluid Moisturizer.

"It feels really nice and hydrating without feeling greasy or anything. It's kind of like an emulsion or like a thick hydrating essence because the texture of this is on the thicker side. It feels really nice on the skin and it's pretty affordable. I think it's about 26 bucks at Target. 5.7 ounces, and probably using this twice a day, this would probably last me four months maybe, because just a little bit did a perfect job. Doesn't feel greasy or anything like that. But I will say if you have acne prone skin, this might be one to pass on. There's a lot of ingredients of note. Isopropyl myristate, which is highly comedogenic, is the fourth ingredient. So you might want to pass that up if you have acne prone skin."

"There's a lot of ingredients of note. Isopropyl Mystery, which is highly comedogenic, is the fourth ingredient, so you might want to pass that up if you have acne-prone skin. You've got squalane, palmitic acid, some fatty acids, vitamin E. They call it Half and Half Peptides and Ceramides, but I will say it's a little overpromising in terms of the peptides. We have Matrixyl 3000 peptide duo, which is great and one of the best peptides out there, but that's really where it ends. We do have a ton of ceramides in here, one, two, three, four, five ceramides, so to call it ceramides and peptides is a little bit overpromising. It's got basically a duo peptide in there, which there's nothing wrong with, but for real anti-aging, I think this is going to leave a little bit to be desired. If you're relying on this solely for anti-aging, I think you might be left a little disappointed. But that being said, it's really nice. If you have oily skin, it's a nice way to get some ceramides and barrier-repairing ingredients in there without the thickness or heaviness of a moisturizer."

"We've got a ton of ceramides in here, rice protein, one, two, three, four, five ceramides. So to call it ceramides and peptides is a little bit overpromising. It's got basically a duo peptide in there, which there's nothing wrong with. But for real anti-aging, I think this is going to leave a little bit to be desired. But as long as you use it in a routine with other good anti-aging things, I think it'll fit in well. But if you're relying on this solely for anti-aging, I think you might be left a little disappointed. There's a lot of great peptides out there and just using picking one basic duo, I don't love that. But that being said, it's really nice. If you have oily skin, it's a nice way to get some ceramides and barrier repairing ingredients in there without the thickness or heaviness of a moisturizer that can end up greasy. It feels really nice, not sticky at all. A lot of moisturizers or fluid moisturizers can be kind of sticky. This does not leave your skin feeling sticky at all. Feels really nice. Nice base moisturizer. I think in the summer on the hotter, more humid days, I probably could get away with just using this underneath my sunscreen and going with it. Rice protein, the peptide duo, vitamin E, squalane, which is a good antioxidant."

The main ingredients include rice protein, the peptide duo, vitamin E, and squalane, which is a good antioxidant. There's no real major red flag ingredients unless you have acne-prone skin because some of those fatty acids can be really problematic for acne-prone skin. It's nice. It's affordable. It's a big bottle. So I'm liking it."

"I started using this to help strengthen my skin barrier. I could really feel not only relief like pretty much as soon as I started using this, like my skin was just like ah drinking it in. But I also felt like longterm it was helping to strengthen my barrier. In practice, this actually functions really well to help strengthen up the skin barrier, but just in a little bit of a different way. Not a really heavy, dense, rich way, but it still offers a lot of lightweight moisture to the skin."

"This is a very flexible product. It could be used as a serum or it can be used as a really light emulsion moisturizer as a final product in your skincare routine. Because there's two different uses for this, this could be a great product for folks who have combo skin that leans dry or if you have a dry skin type, this would be a great serum option for you. If you have a little bit more of an oily skin type, this could be a good moisturizer option for you because it's not like a heavy thick cream. It's not something that seals your skin off or really has any occlusivity to it. So this could be a really nice fluidy moisturizer option for you without all that heaviness and that seal it off quality. This is a really interesting mixture of ingredients here but it really is focused on your skin barrier. Half and half actually refers to half peptides and half ceramides. They're using metatricxel 3000, which can help to stimulate collagen. It has some really great anti-aging benefits, but it's also really helpful for just helping your skin retain hydration."

"I've seen so many creators on TikTok, on YouTube using the Half and Half Fluid Moisturizer under makeup, especially if they have oily skin. And I think that's because this is almost like if a milky toner got a plushy boost. So you get this beautiful amount of hydration, but it's not heavy on the skin. It's not going to break up the makeup, and it just adds the hydration that even oily skin needs."

"I love my Prequel Half and Half Fluid Moisturizer if I want something that's a little bit silkier and thinner."

"You could take the Prequel Half and Half fluid moisturizer, pat that onto the skin, go in with the retinol, and then do another layer of Half and Half on top. A perfect sandwich."

"This layers so well over the Prequel Half and Half Fluid moisturizer."

"It is so good for when you get out of the shower if you want to put on something quick to moisturize but you're not ready for a whole lotion routine. Once it's absorbed then you can go in with any richer moisturizers if that's desired. I find that this layers particularly beautifully under the Skin Utility Balm and that's one of my favorite ways to use it in the evening. When this absorbs into your skin it's not shiny or greasy, it is a true skin-like finish. I love this product so much because when I use it my skin is instantly softer, smoother and more supple. Half and Half Fluid Moisturizer is fragrance-free, allergy tested and suitable for all skin types including those with sensitive skin or eczema prone skin."

"The moisturizer I use by far and away the most these days is my Prequel Half and Half Fluid Moisturizer. It is such a good lightweight moisturizer. I cannot get enough of this. It's a fantastic lightweight moisturizer and if you want to be able to layer lots of products but you still need a moisturizer, this allows you to get that extra boost of moisture without feeling heavy. If you've been looking for something that gives a little boost to your skin, but doesn't mess with all the other products you've layered underneath it and still sits well under makeup and sunscreen and all those things, this is it."

"The moisturizer I use by far and away the most these days is my Prequel Half and Half Fluid Moisturizer. I'm almost done with this bottle. It is such a good lightweight moisturizer. I just had a patient in yesterday who works for a very well-known skincare brand and she's like, I work in this space and I cannot get enough of this. And I agree, it's a fantastic lightweight moisturizer. If you want to be able to layer lots of products but you still need a moisturizer, this allows you to get that extra boost of moisture without feeling heavy. It gives a little boost to your skin, but doesn't mess with all the other products you've layered underneath it and still sits well under makeup and sunscreen."
