Any recomendations for a good body moisturizer for dry skin?
I’ve never needed a body lotion before, my body wash was enough to keep the dry skin away, but the last couple of weeks my legs and arms have been quite flakey . Any ideas on what I can use to soften/remove the dryness? I’m on a student budget so nothing too expensive please
Moisture, moisturize, moisturize! this is the way to beat dry skin. use an all natural skin care moisturizer, this can be safe and effective to protect the skin from moisture robbers like dry air, humidity and other factors that can cause skin damage.
there are many things simple things to do to have clear and healthy skin, one is to drink plenty of water, this can keep the skin hydrated, likewise, eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables.
have healthy habits and avoid bad habits such as smoking and too much alcohol drinking, this can make the skin dry. enough rest. sleep and good program of exercise can help make the skin look at its best.

Are there any good face moisturizers with a lot of spf that won’t cause acne?
Nothing with just spf 15. If there are, where can you buy it?
i use neutrogena healthy defense spf 45 and that was recommended by my dermatologist.
it leaves your face a little shiney but blotting sheets and toilet seat covers (weird, i know lol) can get rid of that
I really like the sensitive skin facial cleanser by clean and clear, but they don’t really have a moisturizer that works for me. I have dry skin and it needs a lot of moisturizer after cleansing. I found some neutrogena moisturizers online that have good reviews and I’m thinking about trying one. Would it be ok to mix clean and clear with neutrogena, or should I try and find a neutrogena cleanser that I like to go along with the lotion?
If you have any suggestions about what works well for you, let me know! I have very dry, sensitive skin that is prone to redness.
Thanks!
Hi there! I actually use the clean and clear sensitive soap too (the clear bottle with the purple lid i think) and it works well for me in removing leftover makeup residue after using my ponds cleansing cloths. My fave moisturizer to use in conjunction with that is the neutrogena oil free combo skin (its in a pump). So no, I dont think it would be a problem.
This lotion is not at all thick and is almost more like a gel… it gets absorbed really quickkly into the skin and leaves no residue. If your skin still feels dry, apply a second coat. IVe found it more effective to apply it in layers, rather than applying a whole bunch the first time. It works better for some reason, more readily absorbed.
The neutrogena oil free moisturizers (just the regular line, not healthy skin or advanced defense or any of those, they’re in a white bottle with a pump and cost between 9-12 dollars) have worked the best for me and have never broke me out. It’s my go to moisturizer, one that ive continued to repurchase again and again. Hope this helps!
i’m not a very observant person, but i’m pretty sure since i’ve started using mac :studio sculpt foundation i’ve been breaking out, but i’ve had breakouts before my skin is alot more oily than ever! mac studio sculpt has the best coverage ive ever had from a foundation though, are there any really good coverage foundations that you can recommend that wouldn’t make my face so oily, i wash my face morning and night, and i know the wash is a little harsh but i use acne moisturizer so it balances, i used to use dermalogica special cleansing gel but it didn’t do anything for my face so i’m sticking with what i got because my face feels cleaner
i need something that doesn’t moisurize for i have been experiencing very oily skin by the end of the day atop of my makeup
That’s why I stopped using MAC. I use Makeup Forever now. I have a lot of dark spots from acne and sometimes I just use their Full coverage concealer. It’s oil free and covers really well. It’s also waterproof. If I use full foundation I use their HD foundation. It covers really well and looks really good on camera. I also use MAC skinfinsh natural powder. It covers well and isn’t heavy so I don’t really breakout from it. I read that if you’re prone to breakouts the best thing to do is take your makup off as soon as you get home and don’t need it anymore that way you don’t do more harm than neccessary. Also if you use a brush be sure to wash it often.
I like using nivea body skin firming moisturizer (I have tried a LOT of lotions out there and this is my favorite due to its smell, how thin it is, and how my skin feels after). I also want skin protection as well though, so I was wondering if I could/should
1) mix sunblock WITH the moisturizer and maybe I will receive the effects of both (more limited, however)
2) put moisturizer on and then sunblock
3) put sunblock on and then moisturizer
which is the most effective and best option for me?
I have tried sunscreens with moisturizers such as the aveeno face spf 35 but it’s so thick (I use it on my face but I can’t imagine putting it on the rest of mmy body because its so thick). I also don’t really like the smell or effects of any other lotion besides nivea. Thanks!!
I’d say moisturizer, then sunblock, because the lotion will be absorbed, then you can protect your skin above that.
just wondering. i was interested in it but i don’t have extra dry skin. is it alright? if not, what other tinted moisterizer works well?
I think Olay has tinted moisturizers for different skin types: dry, oily, normal, anti-age, extra dry, extra oily, etc, etc. Same thing with their face washes and creams.
I love Olay but I haven’t used the tinted moisturizers .. I use the normal one and some powder-based foundation.

How might the film Dream Catcher have improved had James Cameron directed?
I think Dream Catcher which got bad reviews and lost more money than it made would have been Oscar worthy had James Cameron directed it especially since there were action scenes in it and Cameron is good at putting together action scenes woven around an emotional tale between characters so you care about the people and what is happening to them instead of just waiting for the next colossal explosion to rock your senses. Instead of being skin and bones, Dream Catcher would have had some serious meat on it. Ha!
He would definitely have improved it, but he would probably have made some serious changes to the story line. (not that that’s a bad thing.)
“I do not care what car you drive. Where you live. If you know someone who knows someone who knows someone. If your clothes are this year’s cutting edge. If your trust fund is unlimited. If you are A-list B-list or never heard of you list. I only care about the words that flutter from your mind. They are the only thing you truly own. The only thing I will remember you by. I will not fall in love with your bones and skin. I will not fall in love with the places you have been. I will not fall in love with anything but the words that flutter from your extraordinary mind.”
Love doesn’t cost money, but it does require payment of your heart.
Love is giving someone the ability to break your heart and trusting them not to.
You know you’re in love when the hardest thing to say is “goodbye.”
Love: a wildly misunderstood although highly desirable malfunction of the heart which weakens the brain, causes eyes to sparkle, cheeks to glow, blood pressure to rise and lips to pucker.
Love is a friendship set to music.
Love makes time pass; time makes love pass.
Love is the irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
I love you, not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you.
You are the light in a dark room and I am the moth who can’t resist it.
I can’t walk on water, but your love for me has me walking on air.
I dropped a teardrop in the ocean and the day you find it … is the day I’ll stop loving you.
Do you love me because I am beautiful, or am I beautiful because you love me?
The more you center your life on someone, the more unattractive you become to that person.
Don’t fall for someone who won’t be there to catch you.
If you leave me, can I come too.
Each day I love you more. Today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow. [Rosemonde Gerard]
Lucky is the man who is the first love of a woman, but luckier is the woman who is the last love of a man.
“For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.” – Judy Garland
Love is a feeling that you’re gonna have a feeling of a feeling like you’ve never felt before.
You will find, as you look back upon your life, that the moments when you really lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love. Henry Drummond
Sometimes it’s a form of love just to talk to somebody that you have nothing in common with and still be fascinated by their presence. David Byrne
Love you once, love you still. Always have, and always will.
A man gave a woman 12 roses, 11 real and 1 fake. With the roses he gave her a note saying, “I’ll love you until the last one dies.”
I’m not supposed to love you, I’m not supposed to care. I’m not supposed to live my life wishing you were there. I’m not supposed to wonder where you are or what you do. I’m sorry I just can’t help myself, I fell in love with you.
If you get a chance to see him, your heart begins to dance. Your life revolves around him, there’s nothing like romance.
My skin is very sensitive and I have red bumps and at least a few pimples. Then I have a lot of blackheads on my nose and cheeks.
What is a good cleanser and moisturizer for dry skin ?
I bought St. Ives scrub and do I use it everyday after I use my cleanser or do I use it like twice a week ?

What are your favorite homemade masks against acne
or masks that make skin look healthier ?
Less is more. I am in my 50′s but I receive many compliments on my skin. I have my mother to thank for that.
She had nice skin also. However, over the years I have learned that putting too much product, body wash, scrubs, etc. on my face does more harm than good. I just rinse my face in the shower with water only. I use a gentle face wipe to cleanse and I wear a light moisturizer under my foundation. Also, protect your face from the sun or your face will end up looking like an old saddle bag.
Is it true that BB oil moisturizer & Pink Oil Moisturizer coat your hair, rather than moisturizing it?
& that they just “call it a moisturizer” so their products can sell? That’s what someone on here said. I just need to get confirmation on if this is true or not.
its absolutely true. the mineral oil and petroluem just sit on the hair locking in what ever existing moisture but locking out any additional moisture. You’d be better off using a natural oil like shea, coconut avocado or extra virgin olive oil
Recently I’ve noticing people who are growing older, and they seems to be very uncomfortable with the changes in themselves. Some become gym addicts but the exercise systems can only do so much. The anti aging drugs are fake has anyone got any ideas beside alcohol ?
What-like-think! yourself younger-that would be fun.
Where can I find Loreal FUTUR-E daily moisturizer Normal to Oily Skin w/SPF15?.?
I can seem to find this moisturizer. I have been using it for years and its the moisturizer I love. They stopped selling the Normal to Oily Skin which is oil-free in the drugstores. I brought a few bottles on the internet but now I am on my last bottle and can not seem to find it. Can someone tell me where to buy this?
Thanks Edward Kate but its not a link for the product I am looking for.
Hannah – I am in the USA. But i looked on that site anyway and they don’t have my product. Thanks so much!
I have very fair sensitive skin, and I always have some sort of red spots or patches that I can never seem to cover up. My pores are also very large and clogged. I take care of my skin, I wash, tone, use a moisturizer with spf, but my skin is awful. I’m 19 and breast feeding so I think my hormones are still out of whack which might be be part of the problem but what can I do to remove my black heads,make my pores smaller, improve my skin and help eliminate redness?
Also I can never cover up my imperfections or red zones with out looking like a cake faced clown, any tips?
I just use moisturizer as my base, are primers over rated or are they actually helpful?
My skin is very dry and oily which really affects how long my make up lasts (an hour tops) any tips for that? I drink lots of water every day and take a multi vitamin but it’s always dry. and makeup just dries it out more.
It is probably the breast feeding.
I think your skin needs simplicity. Those toners do more harm than good, especially for your skin type. It’ll dry you out, your skin will then produce excess oil to balance it out, which in turn leads to clogged pores! I’d wash it morning and night with dove soap and moisturize it with an oil free moisturizer. Not wearing make up is probably a good idea to clear it up. Chug down all the water you can bare. Stay away from sweets. Eat healthy (As I’m sure you’re doing already because you’re breast feeding). Don’t touch your face! Using head and shoulders shampoo a couple times weekly to wash your face helps. Also, to clean up redness, visine (the eyedrops) for red eyes actually helps reduce the red skin inflammation.
i am 25 years old working India girl. i have fair skin and nearly don’t have sports problem at face, its oily especially around nose. want to make my skin bright and pink glow. i currently am using Nivea Visage sparking glow night care cream, its OK not bad its makes my skin little bright and pink but i notice nivea company stop producing it so i am thinking to go with another brand.
any idea in ponds which one is good.
You need to use a skin care line together. They will work best because they are a system. Find one especially for combination skin. Use the cleanser, toner, day cream & night cream.
I’m not impressed with Ponds. I always associate it with grandmothers.
My favorite line is Act 1,2,&3. Maybe you can find it online. I get mine from work
The best one (mainstream) would be Olay. It’s reasonably priced & you can buy it everywhere. That way if you’re traveling & forgot something it will be easily accessible. Hope this helps you!!
Good Luck
Which has a better OIL FREE face moisturizer?
Can you recommend the specific name of the product?
Thanks a lot
Can I use them in the night or should I buy one especially for night?
I absolutely love Oil of Olay Products. They are great for all skintypes of ALL ages. I am 18 years old, and started using Olay Total Effects Anti Aging Anti Blemish Moisturizer last year. Not only did it feel extremely light and airy going on my skin, but it also hydrated my skin to a soft and supple touch. Another factor that made me love this product was the fact that it made my oily and uneven complexion, shinefree and pimple free!
***By the way, if you checked out all the labels on Olay moisturizer products, you can see for yourself that they are all “oil-free”. Even their CREAMS are oil free, which is extremely hard to find!
*Neutrogena moisturizers are okay as well, but I don’t find the moisturizing effects as potent or long-lasting.
**By the way, you can definetly use the Olay Moisturizer for both day and night.
I had my first facial today at a day spa. It was mentioned to me that I have a bit of rosacea which I never knew. I was also told I should use products for sensitive skin, that my skin is a touch oily and that I need to start using an exfoliant. I’d like to find a line of skin care products that carry a cleanser, exfoliant, toner and moisturizer. I can’t afford the line of products that the spa carries (we’re talking over $200). She also mentioned to me that products carried at walmart and such have added chemicals and preservatives to prolong their shelf life which can be more harmful to skin.
HELP!
I’m currently using spectro gel and was told this is not the best option.
With rosacea you definitely need to use products for sensitive skin.
As for an exfoliant, you need to use something very gentle. Nothing with coarse beads or a scrub or any harsh chemicals. Alpha hydroxy acids are best.
I would not recommend Clinique as it too has parabens in it, which are preservatives.
Here is a website that I’ve found that I think will help you find the right product line for you.
im starting to see fine lines on my forehead and eyes. im 27 years old. im going to change my diet and start working out but should i use products that say they are “anti-aging” or that say “moisturing” . does it matter? i have no idea where to start.
put anti aging on at night and when u wake up put on moisturing one time i was watching paid programing and there was this 80 year old lady that had no wrinkles at all! because she put on moisturing in the morning and anti aging at night! she used that sense she was 30
Should i use Philosophy skin care or rare minerals by bare escentuals for my sensitive skin?
I do not have severe acne….Just tiny little bumps under my skin. Nothing has worked to get rid of them. I started eating much better and taking vitamins, however i want a new skincare. I have tried rare minerals but i heard more about philosophy. What do you think is better any why?….Thank you so much
both are well known and trusted brands,
but philosophy is better, in my opinion,
for sensitive skin.
Salmon is high in Omega 3 and 6 and many articles says it is anti aging, can give me some testimonials they look younger especially if you have taken lots of salmon, I do take lots of green tea and recently started on a fish diet, thank you.
Peter Griffin: Thanks for your input, I don’t care if the salmon is farmed or not, chicken, cows and other domesticated animals is farm and I don’t agree with genetics alone, yes genetics plays a great role but also the diet. But anyway, thanks for your input and thanks for mentioning sardine, will do more research on the sardine later.
Peter Griffin: your quote “I do think it’s reasonable to predict that Omega-3 combined with a healthy lifestyle (overall good diet, proper exercise, stress reduction, sufficient rest, etc) will allow your body to age as well as possible given the restraints of your genetics. ” you mean’t slowing down aging?
myself.
I am 31 but everyone thinks I’m 20-21 !
yep!
i also have lots of green tea, turmeric (which is a miracle, anti aging and anti inflammatory!), fruits and vegetables,
they work honey!
I am 15 years old. I live in New England. I have oily skin in the summer, and combination skin in the winter. It gets very shiny, but is also quick to become itchy and oily, but dry underneath. I used to use Clinique 3-Step, but I find the regimen too complicated (different makeup remover, different moisturizer to have spf, etc) so I have been looking into other brands. I have gotten samples of a couple and honestly, they have all worked very well.
Which of these do you think is best:
Murad
Origins
Shiseido
Philosophy (though most of the philosophy items are geared towards anti-aging)
being honest my skin is the same and i wouldnt use any of these brands as they have alot of cheicals in that may affect your skin i use nivea, no irratation less oily smells great and makes skin very soft !
Are there any creams that will help heal a sore ON MY FACE?
I had this huge pimple on my forehead and i popped it but its like, taken the skin off!!! I now have this massive cut thing/ red mark on my face and its really ugly. i don’t have much at home – would moisturiser do anything for it or will that just irritate it? Is there anything else that will help? Also im going out tomorrow and I sorta have to look good! Suggestions?
Get some oil and rub it all over your face let it stay there for about an hour then wash it off. all the dirt should be on the oil and it helps keep your skin nice and fresh. MAKE SURE U WASH IN HOT WATER OR WARM.
How can I keep my hair and makeup staying the way I put?
Whenever I brush my hair and put makeup on it looks pretty good. But when I go to school I cant take care of it plus the school isn’t the most sanitary of places so things tend to fall apart. My hair is whiny and it gets to be ragged, and my makeup wears out and my skin looks dry. If there is any homemade remedies for this like mixing flour with your base makes it stay longer or something like that. Plus this isn’t just for school if I go out in public for a long time my make up and hair will fade too. I guess my face and hair need alot of attention but I can’t give that kind of work 24/7. Do you have an answer for this, thanks so much! And I will give ten points! (:
Face- after makeup, spray with Fix Plus (Sephora)
Also use a moisturizer before you apply you makeup.
Hair- idk, spritz spray or mousse
