For those of you with dry skin, what moisturizer(s) have you found that you love but aren't too greasy?
So far the best I have found is Skin Medica's Dermal Repair but I could still use something a little more moisturizing. |

| I get dry skin in the winter and I have been using zenbiotics (foundation pack) and I have not had any problem with dry skin...and not oily skin by noon. It isnt full blown winter (in michigan) yet but so far so good. |

For the cooler months I like MD Forte's Replenish Hydrating Cream. I"ve used this for years!! It's great after a peel too. Also I like SkinMedica's Rejuvenating Moisturizer. Both have never given me a problem with breakouts which I get monthly.

| I've been using Neal's Yard Remedies Frankincense Cream for some time now and it moisturises my dry skin really well. |

| Thanks for all the responses so far. Please keep them coming. I would like to hear what people are finding that works for them. All so far look interesting although the Cellcosmet is expensive so I would try less expensive options first. The Frankincense sounds like it would smell good and I ordered this to try. So many things I have never heard of before! |

No I'm in the US. Can I order from Tubotica or is that more complicated with exchange rates? |

Thanks. I just ordered some PSF samples. I have read so many good things about their products. I will check out Dove Sensitive Essentials too. Is it highly fragranced? So many of the drugstore ones have so much france in them. |

Marie if you live in the US you can buy Avene online at DermStore http://www.dermstore.com/profile.php?attributes=500107.
They don't have the entire product line and their retinaldehyde products use different bases than the European versions but they have the same active ingredeint. If they have the particular product(s) you are looking for IMO it would be a lot less hassle than ordering from Tubotica. I have ordered form DermStore before and they are very reliable. |

I use Ice Elements normal to dry moisturizer which I love... and even more, I love the cream cleanser, which cleanses my skin while hydrating it.
For an extra boost, you could add 100% vegetable dirived squalane.
Take care.

Hi Marie, I like Orlane the most. There are three moisturizer I usually buy.
1) B21 Super-Moisturizing Care - good for day and night
2) B21 Light Smoothing Cream - good for day (I find this is very light and effective..I love it)
3) B21 Intensive Nurturing Care - good for night, very rich.
In the winter, I use 3)+2). While in the summer/Fall/Spring, I use 1)+2)
The products from Orlane is not cheap, but you may be able to get a good deal during its promotion. It happens once a year....oh..btw, I always apply the serum first..it works very well... |

the once a year special--full size of the day and night cream together for one jar price..in canada it is $110.
I have tried different serum...the following I usually repurchase..
Sisley Ecological Compound
Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair (only night)
Dior HydrAction Deep Hydration Radical Serum
In addition...my 2006 favorite masks for the dehydrating skin..
1) Fancl The veg moist pack + rhythm up mask--it's soothing and leaves my face moisturised and clean
2) EA Hydrating Mask -- this is a wonderful product... |
