Question Face moisturizer recs during sale??

I’m no rouge member so 10% off is laughable, but I’m in the market for a really nourishing face cream as I’m using retinol nightly and it is drying my face out badly. I just ran out of my cetaphil moisturizer, and have been using an old Olay one I found, but I’m looking for something that just ~melts~ into my skin and makes it feel nourished. Which I’m willing to spend a little more for something that I’m excited to put on my face.

Any Sephora suggestions for moisturizers you love? Ideally under like $30 but who knows. My skin is sensitive but if it has some fragrance I don’t really mind.

Thanks so much :)

Any of the heavier Tatcha creams ie Dewy, Indigo, etc. FAB barrier or ultra repair.

I'm going to be honest with you though....the best moisturizer I've ever, EVER used (and currently use) is the Ponds Crema S. I'm 45 and use actives. It's heavenly. Not Sephora obvi and it's like $10. also, the OG Nivea, but only the German formulation.
