I need u guys to recommend a moisturiser for me. I have combination skin (oily T-zone, rest is quite dry) and need something balancing but also which will prevent me getting “shiny” during the day
At the moment I use Imperialis by Lush and its fantastic but I still tend to get shiny skin during the course of the day.
Which moisturiser do u guys use and can recommend? (one that I can get in the UK)
thanks

lol i use astral good for my skin
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
DOVE- I swear by it
If you want a moisturizer that will absorb quickly into your skin without making it oil, try Boots No. 7 Moisture Quench or Oil of Olay. Boots is really nice.
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
Clinique and it is amazing! I have dry skin so she recommended me this,
Clinique | Skin Care | Moisturizers | Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
clinique all the way
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
^:lifey: exactly. It rocks.
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
Don't know about balancing, but i use Boots Time Delay wrinkle prevention cream, SP15, it melts into your skin and is non-greasy. Luuuuuuurve it!
The Body Shop Vitamin E face cream... I love the non-greasy feel!
i've heard a lot about it..does it do anything else other than moisturize?
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
thanks for the suggestions, I'll have a look at some of the ones mentioned. A quick q though, if do use the same moisturiser on both parts of my face, should I be using more or less on the oily parts? Or the about the same?
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
good ole Oil of Olay with SPF... its awesome!!! absorbs quickly, is non-greasy, and keeps my skin lovely and soft.
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
If the moisturizer is suited for your skin type....then apply it evenly to all parts of your face.
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
Liz Earle Skin Repair Light Moisturiser for oily skin (it's like a lighter version of the regular cream). I have excema and have periodic breakouts, it's been really amazing for me by controlling the oil and spots as well as keeping the excema moisturised. I'm a Combination skin type.
SIMPLE's moisturises, its the only one that suits me and isnt greasy
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
Shiseido's White Lucent. Shiseido is the best thing to happen to skincare.
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
Chanel Beaute Initial line
or Estee Lauder DayWear
Clinique is really good too especially for sensitive skin
I have been using organic jojoba oil as a face and body moisturizer and am in awe of this wonderful product. My skin has never felt and looked so amazingly supple, smooth, clear and bright ALLHUMDULILLAH and trust me, my skin was in MISERABLE condition with severe acne, leathery texture and dull complexion. Have used all kinds of high-end moisturizers to drugstore brands to salon products only to find them either too greasy and NOT AT ALL moisturizing or too drying leaving the skin flaky and sort of scaly.
This is one product I'm going to stick to. Also, I've realized that the more natural products you use, the better it is for the skin and hair.
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
Aqua Fusion by Lancome for summers, it's super fresh, almost gel based - continuously moisturizes.
Hydra Zen by Lancome for Winters, just the right level of thickness and feels great.
Re: Which moisturiser do you guys use?
i use Pond's, the one with a blue jar, im sure they might have something for combo/oily skin?
