 |  What do you use for dry skin?
What would you recommend as good face cream/moisturizer? The cold weather and bypass diet has dried my skin so much.
The nut has me taking 1000 iu's of fish oil but so far no difference in my skin. Thanks

My face skin is very sensitive and I can't use most creams. I was with noxema and use Night of Olay (it's thicker than the regular oil of olay).

I absolutely love Hope in a Jar from Philosophy. I naturally have dry skin so I moisturize everyday. It must work cause the other day at work someone thought I was a teenager

I love Arbonne products- they are all natural, so very easy on the skin. Aquaphor is great, but if I rubbed that on my face I think I would break out like a teenager! I use it on my hands and lips.

I like Gold Bond's Ultimate Healing lotion. I used it pre-op on my body, but wouldn't even think of it on my face. But ever since surgery I tried it one day because my old facial mosturizers didn't cut it and this works beautifully.

I wouldnt use this on my face but on the rest of my body YES! I live in ND and lord knows it is dry as the desert here in the winter. I am a Pure Romance consultant and we carry what is called "Body Dew" and it is an oil mist. It is SUPER hydrating and leaves your skin feeling very hydrated - great for dry winters and great for summers because it leaves your skin nice and shiny Also great to hydrate tattoos and what not. I dont mean to sound like a dork about this stuff but it is great - just not for your face | |
