I'm trying to look for something that's moisturizing yet non-greasy and I haven't been able to come across any. Recommendations?
Antioxidants and SPF are bonuses too! |

The Paulas Choice line pretty much covers the spf and her moisturizers ingredients list is a whos who in antioxdiants. Even the toners are packed with antioxidants.
Elizabeth Grant serums are excellent for moisture. |

I really like Green Garden's Naturals Silky Face.
Had a jar in a sampler I bought last year and it is my favorite regular face cream now.
It feels very light and moisturizes well.
I can actually use it in my eye area without problems too.
But their website says it has emu oil- the one I have does not have emu and does not say that on the jar- you can request without Emu oil.
(the sampler i bought was also advertising the version they had has no emu).
Here are the ingedients:
Ingredients:
Organic Palm Oil
Palm Stearic Acid
Vitamin E
Phenoxyethanol
Vitamin A
Rosehip Oil
Vitamin C Ester
Wheat Germ Oil
Pro Vitamin B5
Comfrey
Neem Oil
Citric Acid Kosher Vegetable Glycerin
Organic Black Willow
Bark Extract
Rosemary Oleoresin
Organic Aloe Juice
Tetrasodium EDTA
Organic Jojoba Oil
Emulsifying Wax
Rose
Distillate
Avocado Oil
There is no SPF though.

I'm on my 3rd jar of that one.
I was using some of the Clinique oil free moisturizing gel and their Moisure surge sometimes- and found that for some odd reason Clinique would start to bother my skin after a few days.
Usually I keep on switching moisturizers when I use one up.
Only with that it had sunscreen, but I use Colorscience powder over that or another mineral makeup. |

Actually, that cream contains wheat germ oil. Isn't that very high on the comedogenic scale? |

Neo Cutis Bio-Restorative Skin Cream. I really like this moisturizer and I have tried a ton of them; Revive, Clarins, Decleor, LaRoche-Posay, Olay, Philosophy, Bliss, Etc. Some I liked and some I disliked but none were wonderful enough to purchase twice.
Neo Cutis is that wonderful (I also use the Neo Cutis Eye cream - Fantasic) that I had to purchase another bottle after I finished the first one. Originally, this was recommended to me by the dermatologist and I was reluctant to try it because of the price. I found it on Amazon for considerably less and even cheaper on Ebay - So it isn't too expensive if purchased from one of those sites. The first bottle lasted me almost 6 months. It has growth factors that encourage collagen production, which softens the look of lines. I have also used TNS Recovery Complex, which contains growth factors, and both products do improve the skin, but Neo Cutis is superior IMO. If your skin is too sensitive for products containing retinoids or alpha hydroxy acids, Neo Cutis Bio-Restorative Skin Cream is a good option. To keep your good results always, always remember to wear sunscreen!!!
Neocutis Bio Restorative Skin Cream full list of ingredients: Water (aqua), octyldodecanol, glyceryl stearate, decyl oleate, glycerin, propylene glycol, wheat germ oil (Triticum Vulgare), stearic acid, cetyl alcohol, ceteareth-20, myreth-3 myristate, ceteareth-12, cetearyl alcohol, cetyl palmitate, tocopheryl acetate, dimethicone, borage seed oil (Borago Officinalis), carbomer, triethanolamine, methylparaben, propylparaben, glycosphingolipids, phenoxyethanol, disodium EDTA, BHT, ethylparaben, butylparaben, methylisothiazolinone and methylchloroisothiazolinone |
