Looking for facial moisturizer suggestions that will relieve redness (lemmy.world)

I moved to a really cold and dry climate which has made my cheeks light up like a christmas tree. I've always lived in humid cities so this isn't something I've had to think about.

Anyone have suggestions on reasonably priced moisturizers that could help out? I checked out Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream, but at $60+, I'd like to check if any comparable alternatives exist at a lower cost.

CeraVe always burns my skin and makes it all scaly and flaky by the next day, which is weird cause I don't have a history of sensitive skin but I also have not yet ruled out that other products could be causing this sensitivity.

Had a good experience with Curél Ultra Healing lotion* however and when my skin is real sensitive, Vanicream always does the trick in moisturizing while giving my skin a chance to heal. Can vouch for the Vanicream cleanser as well.

*upon further research this is apparently a hand and body lotion lol but it's non-greasy, non-comedogenic, with their ceramide complex and it works!! so w/e. The 1oz tube I got from dollar tree does not say where you are meant to use it and genuinely looks like a facial lotion 😆
