    Hi all. (again)

    I need to find a really good hydrating moisturiser and /or Face mask.
    The medi bac is really drying out my skin badly and the make up is not going on too well??

    Any body have any suggestions??:rolleyes:

    What are for you?

    I only ask because L'Oreal do good moisturisers for different age groups.

    Simple are also a good brand and No. 7 also do a good range of moisterisers

    I use clinique - dramatically different cus my skins really dry, its really good it changes colour til you've rubbed it in properly & really helps your skin. I sometimes use it as a primer if I'm out.

    I use the day cream from No.7's protect and perfect range, it's really really good. :)

    Boots Botanics range has this Super Face Balm.
    It is incredibly hydrating, makes your skin baby soft overnight.

    If you're using the medibac range maybe you should use the dermalogica moisturiser also, they probably compliment eachother.
    Also the salicyllic acid in the medibac will really dry out your skin but only for a short period at the beginning. Then you'll get used to it and you're skin will adapt, it wont be so dry. I used to use a face wash with salicyllic acid in it and it even dried out my finger tips from when I'd wash my face. For ages I couldnt understand what the heck was going on with my freaky finger tips and then twigged !! It went away soon enough though, just keep plugging away at it.

    I have tried so many different moisturisers.

    May Faves are (from highest to lowest price)

    Clarins - multi active day protection
    La Roche Posay - rehydrate with UVA 15
    Ponds - for dry skin

    Clarins is gorgeous but the others do just as good a job imo.

    Aquaeous Cream. I use it for my psoriasis but it can be used for all types of dry skin. Its brilliant, my skin is never dry after it. You can get it from any chemist.

    +1 Get the Aquaeous in the tube rather than the pot as it's not as thick and heavy.;)

    Ive tried numerous moisturisers but always go back to Astral. Its cheap as chips and is the only moisturiser that actually softens my skin properly. Its greasy as hell for the first while but calms down then.

    I HATE dramatically different! It made my skin feel tight and dry and gave me spots!
