Face Lotion

Mehnaz · Apr 19th, 2004, 09:17 AM

I want to try a new face lotion for everyday use. Something that works good with liquid foundation and won't make my skin look too greasy or too dry. Any suggestions?

Crisco

What's your skin type Mehnaz? What do you/have you used already?

Mehnaz · Apr 19th, 2004, 02:00 PM

I have normal/regular skin ... usual occassional t-zone shine. Right now, I just use lubriderm face lotion. I don't want to use it anymore though ... want to try something new.

Lubriderm on Face? I dont think so.

Try MDFormulations Sunscreen
Its moisturizer and sunscreen in one and works wonders with foundation.

Anchal, that's like the one I'm using now ... daily UV defense SPF 15.

I don't think they sell the one you mentioned over here. I will look out for it. My skin was super dry before I started using this. I guess I need something with a bit of a moisturizer.

They might, not in the grocery store though, try Beauty Clinics. Its a world known brand, very popular. The moisturizer is the only product from the line that is basically below 60 bucks. But its very very good.

I love love love love love St. I'ves "Essential Moisturizer" with Collagen-Elastin. Comes in a pink tub.

Leaves my skin so soft and smooth.

I believe in taking care of myself, in a balanced diet, in a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now.

After I remove the icepack, I use a deep pore-cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water-activated gel cleanser, then a honey-almond body scrub, and on the fae an exfoliating gel scrub.

Then I apply an herb mint facial masque which I leave on for ten minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine.

I always use an after-shave lotion with little or no alcohol because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm, followed by a final oisturizing "protective" lotion...

Howz dat!!

You put my routine to shame ....

which is exercise a few times a week and that's about it.

I have to say Clinique, I recently started using one of moisturizers and it's amazing. I have normal skin and I always thought that it was in pretty good condition but I was really impressed by how much softer it made my skin. I can't remember the name right now, but I'll post it when I get home.

Mem Sahib · Apr 21st, 2004, 02:09 PM

clinique.. forget the name. its £35. so good. you actually physically notice the difference!
Skin looks and feels good. I use the anti-age one.
at 26 - you've got to start thinking about it!!

Mehnaz · Apr 21st, 2004, 02:31 PM

LOL Mem Saab.

I got a sample of their Repair Wear, which I think could possibly be the anti-aging lotion. I love it simply cause it makes my skin soooo soft before I go to sleep. Actually, I should really find out what it is for. I'm gonna try their moisturizer too now. I love Clinique products.

Shahreen · Apr 21st, 2004, 03:37 PM

No point in asking me to recommend a moisturiser.......you know which I'm going to start raving about given any opportunity.
