Why pay big bucks for a moisturizer when you can use Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Vit E Oil, Vaseline and any variety of cheap moisturizers you have in your house or can get at any store such as Aldi, Walmart, etc.
I use a Vitamin E cream I get at Walmart. It comes with two jars for under five dollars and I’m not allergic to it. If you have dry skin, you can (and probably should) wash your face in any of these products.
And while we’re speaking of faces, stay out of the sun to avoid wrinkles or skin cancer. One should also use a good suntan lotion such the one my dermatologist recommends: Eucerin Daily Protection. He recommends it because it contains zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. One can also wear a hat or carry an umbrella to avoid the sun as I’ve seen Carrie do on Sex and the City.
Men should moisturize their faces too, and use Eucerin Daily Protection on their faces and balding heads. I’ve noticed that men often look older than women of the same age. Perhaps it’s their wrinkles….
I gave up expensive moisturizers etc years ago and use Ponds cold cream now. Works just fine. My grandmother used it her whole life and she had gorgeous skin.
Sometimes the most reasonable moisturizers work just fine.
I know. I’m really not convinced those expensive “formulas” do anything but make cosmetic companies rich.
