Diprobase is prescribed... usually for eczema. It's the gentlest moisturiser I have found.

I get rosacea too when I am hot in summer and find diprobase doesn't make me itch.

The doc gave me some cream for it but I didn't like it and it didn't seem to help.

The biggest thing I have done to reduce it is to give up all caffeine - red wine, coffee, tea (just have decaf), coke, chocolate etc :D

[Gizmo]

Nivea Soft for me I get really dry skin on my face and its the only one that keeps my skin moisturised :thumbsup:

[kindredspirits]

we've got loads of different ones around the house - garnier revitalift makes my eyes sting, elizabeth arden is really lumpy and heavy, no. 7 protect and perfect serum is good for night time but not moisturizing enough for day time.
i use body butter :blush:

[Pipsqueak]

Aldi's own - night and day - its brill:thumbsup:

i do like garnier reviatlift and olay

[Joannechildmind]

i like olay complete care when it was on special offer :blush: but full price now:( My face is soooooo dry and i cant find anything to keep it moisurised.

[mamasheshe]

niva :D great stuff

[Twinkles]

ummmm don't use a moisturiser :blush:

Me too! Aunty Gok recommended it and i think it works..........i don't think i look 65:rolleyes:

[sunflower]

I also suffer with rosacea when i get hot in summer

I use Diprobase, you can buy it over the counter at chemist

its a great moisturiser :thumbsup:

[Mcgons]

I use No7 Protect & Perfect serum, then either No7 Advanced Hydration cream or if I have vouchers to spend, Lancome Hydra Zen Fluid - love the smell :)

[Pipsqueak]

ummmm don't use a moisturiser :blush:

<runs away very fast>


mwah mwah Twinks lol

[green puppy]

Nivia soft for me, sometimes I use Bio-oil at night usually on the weekend.

[Mollymop]

I buy Avon's 30+ range and love it

[Tatia]

I love The Body Shop line. I use the Jojoba line because I have dry skin and my daughter (18) uses the Teatree line because she has oily skin.

[ajs]

no 7 protect and perfect serum too

nothing else far too lazy to bother with my skin

[Spangles]

I use Oil of Olay because my nan always used it and she had fantastic skin and just the slightest lines, no wrinkles.

I never remember which one I had though so just buy random ones! Ha! Not the really expensive ones though.

[ajs]

when i was buying the last lot of P and P in boots the woman was trying to sell me the cream for the 40 + skin by telling me she used it
my daughters and i just looked at her and said no thanks, she had the worst wrinkles i had ever seen and the worst make up over the top of them too.
not a good advert at all

[caz3007]

Aldi's own - night and day - its brill:thumbsup:



I was also recommended the Aldis one and use them, they are great and really good value too

[balloon]

Vaseline essential moisture - fab stuff that goes into the skin easily, makes it remarkably soft and doesn't irritate my eczema and dermatitis. Cheap too which is always a bonus! ;)

[Chatterbox Childcare]

I use different ones but my favourite is Loreals Day and Night Cream. they are usually in Boots for £7 each and last me 3 months plus

[Rasharoon]

I use a dermologica precleanse followed by their dermal clay cleanser to wash my face then I moisture using the dermalogica skin smoothing cream.
All expensive but fab.

[Bananabrain]

Oil of Olay.
What a sado I am:laughing:

[Minstrel]

same- olays complete care :D

[Goatgirl]

We (my 17 yr old daughter and myself) use soltan factor 30 face sun cream. I used to use anti ageing creams, but didn't think they were really doing much in relation to the expense and for most of the year Soltan is buy one get one free, so about £4 a tube which lasts a fortnight of me slathering it all over my face neck chest hands!
I have very fair skin so a sunscreen is a good idea for me even if i used something else; my daughter has very sensitive, dry skin and gets excema on her face so I'm interested in some of the suggestions on here. The Soltan face cream is the only moisturiser that doesn't make her skin red and sore so far, and we've had stuff prescribed/ used lots of 'mild' moisturisers. Its still too harsh for her eye area though... might try one of those suggested above :)

Dr Hauschka,

rose day cream in the winter and quince day cream in the summmer.

Best range ever, bit pricey but a little gors alonmg way :clapping:

[The Juggler]

protect and perfect plus olay nature fusion, day and night. mind you didn't use 'proper' moisturiser until I was 37! just used whatever body lotion I had and put it on my face as well:laughing: think time is catching up with me now.... oh dear!

[button68]

I'm loving L'occitane Divine - I have dry skin and find it absolutely lovely :thumbsup:

[Daisy1956]

I have moisturisers all over the house diprobase for most things but I also like Body Shop Hemp hand cream .
