I'm coming to the end of my rose moisturiser which was a special treat whilst I was on holiday.
As I love the smell, does anyone know of a rose moisturiser easily obtainable here but without a high price tag? I don't go for big name/high price, my budget is normally around the "Boots own" price.

What's the one you were using and how much was it?

Frankincense & rose
Also this one, which is more of a body moisturiser, I think:

It was from Australia from one of those shops that make up their own recipes from natural ingredients. It was around £13 for a small 65ml pot (treat from OH) so even if I could find something similar that's not the sort of price I'd want to pay for an every day item.

Oh, Thank you Geri, that looks lovely, and reasonable P+P too. I think I'll give that a try. Much appreciated.

Treat yourself to a sample size of this (http://www.drhauschka.co.uk/products/face-care/rose-day-cream). It's excellent!

Thank you everyone. They all look lovely. I want to try them all! I think I'll put the more expensive ones on my wish list for birthday/Christmas presents ;).

I love Balm Balm rose geranium, it's £6 for a tube/pot or you can get a little pot from Superdrug or Boots for £3 to try. The pot is more like a balm, the tube like a cream (same ingredients, just different ratios) and a little goes a long way, I've had a large pot for about a year now and I use it on my face, hands, feet, elbows & lips (tastes a bit like Turkish delight).

Thanks Ang, that looks nice too. I'll look out for it next time I'm in Boots.

I use their Evening Primrose day cream (at night!) and it's true a little goes a long way.
I've been looking for the Balm Balm rose geranium cream as well, I can only find the little tubs (which I use as a lip balm) so far.

The Weleda Rose range is just like Dr Haushka, except it's half the price!
