Redness and sensitiveness

Hi everyone!

I would like some recommendations about my skincare routine, since I'm going to change it soon. I'm going to replace Lush products due to rising prices and maybe my cleanser too (I was thinking about buying another Yves Rocher cleanser, but any suggestion is welcome!).

Do you have any moisturizer recommendations?

Also, do you think I can improve my skincare in some other ways?

I have mixed skin (but I recently moved North so my skin is a bit dryer due to cold and wind) and my main concerns are redness and sensitiveness.

Bonus question:

I do also have a bit of Seborrheic Dermatitis (I read online that could be related to dry dandruff, but my dermatologist didn't mention it), but it's just three spots: two symmetrical spots near the nose-cheeks and one between the eyebrows. They're like dry and flaky, usually followed by a bit of redness (and when I'm too oblivious with my skincare routine they start to itch after two days or so).

I used pharmacy products like Kelual - Ducray, but I found out that Lush Cosmetic lad face moisturizer works wonder on those spots.

I use a combination of Yves Rocher, The ordinary, Lush and La Roche Posay (just for spf)... I'm gonna replace Lush soon tho

I'd highly recommend you to radically pair down your routine (use less products), and also go fragrance-free. An example routine: https://whatsinmyjar.com/posts/942/routine-makeover-extra-gentle-routine-for-sensitive-skin. A simple routine like this minimizes the number of potential irritants / dermatitis triggers that get in contact with your skin and lets your skin restore its skin barrier. You could also apply a protectant like this on the affected area: https://whatsinmyjar.com/product/la-roche-posay-cicaplast-baume-b5-for-dry-skin-irritations
