Aveeno with shea butter for me about £5 for a tube but seems to last for ages as you dont need to use much

Ive order 2 tubs from superdrug now - couldnt find the special 2 for £3.99 offer but as it was postage free, well worth it. many thanks for everyones input. I never used to bother with things like this but as you get older you put in that much more effort and it really does make a difference.

I've just been on to order some more and all the offers I had in my basket had changed, including the 2 for £3.99 one I bought some today in town and it's far far better than the Body Shop puree things I had been using and smells lovely. No greasy after feeling, absorbs beautifully and lovely soft skin - definitely a keeper

The most effective (and cost effective) product I've found is Aqueous Cream. You get 500g for £1 - £2, depending on where you shop. I also like jojoba oil and I'm finding it suits my skin even better these days but that's only because I have hyperhidrosis.

I've heard the same thing - although I used it for years and it didn't cause me any problems. The only reason I don't use it now is because of my skin disease, Hyperhidrosis. It makes me sweat excessively and any cream or lotion that I use on my skin blocks off the pores from the air which screws up my internal thermometer, 'turns on' the sweating and this washes the cream off my skin. It would be different if the cream had a chance to absorb, I'd still be using it. Now I just use jojoba oil or dry oil spray. They don't block the pores and they absorb ultra fast.
