Switching from a lotion to an oil takes some getting used to, but my skin is obviously benefiting! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-418431 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 04:03:28 +0000 banana 418431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Boscia and love it for daily wear. in the winters I use creme de la mer and it saves my face. I have super dry skin so I need the heavy duty stuff in the winters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-418413 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 02:36:25 +0000 Teachermama 418413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Coconut oil!

I love it. :)) and it's cheap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417733 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 17:29:11 +0000 ladyfingers 417733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sephora's Instant Moisturizer is great but I have oily skin. They have a dry skin formulation that might be worth checking out. And it's comparatively cheap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417714 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 17:24:05 +0000 Alivoo01 417714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Cerave AM/PM. It seems to do the job and has spf in it as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417666 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 17:05:44 +0000 Meridian 417666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about a moisturizer with SPF? Or do you ladies use a separate SPF? I've been using a Shiseido moisturizer with SPF 15 which I LOVE, but have been thinking of dropping down to something less expensive. Well, it's $40, which isn't too bad, but still... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417375 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 15:46:43 +0000 Lone Palm 417375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Elizabeth Ardens sensitive skin calming moisturizing lotion. I can typically find it at Marshalls for about 12.99 as opposed to the 34.99 in dept stores - when I find it I buy a lot of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417355 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 15:40:04 +0000 alayaya 417355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've used the cetaphil sensitive skin moisturizer too. I've also used clinique and I really love it. Right now I'm using spectro hydracare during the day and jojoba oil at night after my shower. the spectro stuff smells a bit weird and I'm not sure how I feel about it.</p> <p>My favorite is the clinique, but it is more expensive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417346 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 15:38:06 +0000 MsMini 417346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Dr Brandt blemishes no more oil free hydrator. It absorbs in well, and doesn't leave any greasy/slippery feeling. It really helps keep my blemishes at bay! It does have salicylic acid though, so not the best in pregnancy (my skin magically cleared up and was less dry during pregnancy though).</p> <p><a href="http://www.sephora.com/blemishes-no-more-oil-free-hydrator-P236009?skuId=1415637" rel="nofollow">http://www.sephora.com/blemishes-no-more-oil-free-hydrator-P236009?skuId=1415637</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417333 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 15:35:19 +0000 JerricaBenton 417333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@futuremama: Don't use the same one - that one has fragrances and other stuff. You can get pure argan oil at a health food store or drugstore.com or some of the cosmetic companies make it, like Josie Maran but it's more expensive. I got sweet almond oil on drugstore.com for super cheap. I'm using that right now for everything - my face, ends of hair, belly, and body. I also bring it to use when I get massages. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417268 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 15:15:27 +0000 blackbird 417268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been using the Cetaphil cream that PP's have suggested. It is for ultra dry sensitive skin. I've had these awful, ugly massive passive of dry, flaky skin on my face for MONTHS now. I tried coconut oil, I tried a serum with a moisturizer, I dried extra strength moisturizers--nothing was working. The dermatologist recommended this cream because he said I was probably too sensitive to everything in the stuff I've been using. My skin has gone batshit crazy with this pregnancy and it's the ONLY thing that's saving me from clawing it off </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417194 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:50:21 +0000 futuremama 417194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JerricaBenton: I use Moroccan Oil on my hair. Isn't that Argan oil? I never knew that could be used on my skin! Maybe I'll give that a try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417171 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:44:45 +0000 lavender 417171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kiehl's ultra moisterizing cream, pricier than drugstore brands but worth it IMO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417157 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:36:13 +0000 Foodnerd81 417157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Olay, like you. I get hives from any other brand I've tried. I did have to recently switch from the normal to the oily skin version.<br /> Have you tried the regenerist line? I think that's what it is called, but the one that comes in the red glass tub is really nice and thicker than the original kind in the white bottle. No SPF though, so I only use that one at night. It's sort of pricey but you can get it at Costco. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417150 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:32:25 +0000 autumnlove 417150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Cetaphil in the tub for my extra dry days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417141 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:30:01 +0000 Weagle 417141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've used Eucerin for years, and it's the best ever.

I use the lotion for my face and the cream for sunburn, elbows, baby bump, etc--it is super moisturizing and would be great for dry skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417081 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:14:35 +0000 JerricaBenton 417081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Argan oil or Sweet Almond oil - I've never used anything better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417075 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:13:07 +0000 Mrsbells 417075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Simple oil free moisturizer, clinique is great too </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417064 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:08:36 +0000 winniebee 417064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been using Phytomer hydracontinue for like 4 years and love it. It's pricey, but worth it IMO. A tub lasts a good few months, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moisturizer-recommendations#post-417061 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:06:59 +0000 futuremama 417061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've used Olay moisturizer forever and haven't had any problems. However, lately, my skin has been terribly dry and is breaking out because of it. It's to the point where my makeup looks flaky. Any recommendations for someone with dry but sensitive skin? I'd love a drugstore brand but am willing to get something pricier if it's worth it. I'm sick of looking like in going through puberty again! </p>
