It seems that we are told so often about cheaper and better moisturisers yet persist in handing over wads of our cash for the expensive ones,

I've just started to use the OCM and it's brilliant and even cheaper than the Simple cream in this article. It's not just money-saving but money-saving AND being good to my skin.

I used to use Simple many years ago, when they were one of the few brands that didn't test on animals (1980s) and it was pretty good. I still use their eye make up remover.

I never spend more than about a fiver on any cream - at the moment I am using some Frankincense & Rose cream from Amphora Aromatics. I also have their Wheatgerm & Vitamin E night cream. They cost about £3.50 or so.

I love these tests. You are never told how many people tested, how long for, if the wrinkles where measured before and after. None mention having an spf which is really imprortant.

What about people with sensitive skin who cannot use these wonder products?

For those theres the OCM :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

My sensitivity has decreased dramatically since stopping the use of perfumed, petroleum based products.

May I ask what the OCM is

Which? tested 12 creams over a six-week period on a panel aged between 35 and 65.

High-definition photographs were taken before and after, which were analysed by a panel of five experts.

Need to find someone with an online subscription to read more.

No, sorry - just taken to the sign in/sign up page but thanks for trying.

I had a hideous reaction to Simple that required medical treatment and time off work.

The ingredients list is full of nasties that many other brands are taking out of their products such as PEGs, parabens, perfume, mineral oil, liquid paraffin, silicones, talc, squalane from sharks livers, citral. limonene...
