Moisturiser!

[KxMx]

Can anyone recommend a good, light moisturiser that doesn't cost more than £5?
Boots have gone and discontinued the Complete Moisturiser, which i've used for years and years and only cost £1.95! :confused::mad::cry:
I'm 22 and looking for something to use just on my face. I like something richer for my face than just bog standard all over lotion.
Was thinking Nivea maybe or the Boots Vitamin E (didn't like the toner though), or possibly the fragrance free lotion.

the Aldi one has had rave reviews in the media, and I think its pretty good - £2 something a pot I think!

Hi
I second that i use both the aldi day and night cream i love it!

[elljay]

Me three. I've used the Aldi one for a while now. Both day and night creams are excellent, no tight feeling the next morning and cheap enough to use on hands too - and don't forget your neck! A brilliant find.

My daughter and I used the aldi one for a while but we both developed dry patches on it-my DD is 18 and normally spotty but ended up spotty and with dry patches. Went back to Liz earle-dearer than £5 initially but a tube lasts me 4-5 months.

I find the Aldi day cream good but it's a bit heavily scented for my taste.

When I was your age:rolleyes:, I liked Body Shop vitamin E cream, but now I'm double your age plus a bit I like Avon Solutions. It might be a bit more than you want to pay, but I'm sure they do one for all age-groups.

Hi, I use Nivea Soft Intensive Moisturising cream

£1.79 for a tube 75ml. Or £4.59 for a tub of 200ml. - in boots. But have seen it cheaper in local shops.

Leaves my skin lovely and soft and i'm 35.

Nooooo, I use Boots Complete as well! Will have to try the Aldi one now.

Just checked out some of those links, none of them seem to be SPF 15 like the Boots one.

[Penny-Pincher!!]

Tesco do a day and night cream for under £2 and both boxed. Never used but looked and sounded good.

BNatural range at Tesco's at the moment on 3 for 2. This is organic and very reasonably priced.

Another vote for the Aldi moisturisers here - they've saved me a fortune and work pretty well. I'd had brand inflation before and taken to using Philosophy and Elemis. I've kicked the habit now as long as I keep off QVC

Avon Botanicals - very light, doesnt clog and my skin loves it (ex liz earle user) comes with an SPF of 20 and is often on special 2 for £6 or less. The only downside is its in a pot

[geri1965]

Superdrug Vitamin E cream - £2 or so and has SPF15.

Hi, I use Nivea Soft Intensive Moisturising cream

Another vote here for Nivea.
I started using it when I got sunburn on my face last year and have kept using it.
I have oily skin usually and I really notice it if I forget to use the Nivea. It soaks in quickly and isn't greasy at all (from my experience)

[Pssst]

You cant beat Nivea

[suseb_99]

doesn't the body shop have a sale on at the moment ???
you might pick up a few bargains!!

[geri1965]

I used to nothing but Body Shop stuff in the 80s, but they are quite expensive now, in my opinion.

I do like their stuff though, the shea body butter and hemp hand cream especially.

[crumpetmonster]

I love the Simple range - light hydrating for Summer and the rich one for the Winter.

It's fragrance free, really smooth and makes my skin feel lovely.

I've got combination skin that's prone to dry patches and it never irritates!

[noonesperfect]

Marks and Sparks used to do a facecare range - I don't think the prices were too way out - I don't know about these days though.

[glowgirl]

I like Boots skin clear, in a purple tube great for oily/blemished skin and costs about £1.99 but always on offer of some sort, if you don't have oily skin the Boots cucumber one, sorry cant remember the exact name gets rave reviews within the beauty industry;)
