Hi Deehbee, I actually use Childs Farm Cocoa & Shea Butter Baby Moisturiser. You can get it at Boots. I use this one over 2 years now and been very happy with this product. I use not every day oxygen only when I need to.
Sometimes I use Aloe Vera gel from Holland and Barrett, also most vegans products are petroleum and Paraffin free. Both are extremely good moisturiser. And both smell very nice.
I also have extremely dry skin, when it's very bad I actually use extra virgin olive oil 😉
For change I use mostly organic products they don't contain any of it. Also depending on the weather and what kind of clothing I wear, when I jeans and tight tops I get very quickly dry skin and use than a Aloe Vera gel, because it's quickly absorbed, in colder times I use the child's farm products, there are different kinds you can use.
So just try some out. I hope you will find something suitable for you, just change the product from time to time not that your skin getting sensitive.
You stay safe and well 🌹🌹🌹
Hi there MELNEL 🙋♀️ and I'm looking for a change of moisturiser so will see if Boots Chemist near me, stock the Childs Farm products that you've recommended. Hope you are well and managing this COVID-19 pandemic. 🐿🌈💕
I use Aveeno products. I use their shower wash, their body moisturiser and face moisturiser. I have sensitive skin and patches of eczema which it is great for too.
Hi🙋♀️@AngieB72. I've used Aveeno daily moisturising body lotion but sometimes i feel its a little bit "tacky". Im going to try MELNEL 's
suggestion of Childs Farm products and see how it goes. I will come back with how I found it etc. 🐿🌈💕
I’ve heard that Child’s Farm works wonders on eczema too.
I actually tried Aveeno but it doesn't works for me, I get even more dry skin with it. Kind of weird I thought when I used it. But I guess there is something my skin don't like, it also didn't smell nice on me. You take care of honey 🌹💐🌹😉
Yes, it played havoc with the hair on my tail 🐿 but seriously, i found Aveeno a tad greasy on my skin, even when being quite frugal with it! As for it's smell, my acute sense of smell, didn't pick up anything too "stinky" but that's just me. Im also going to try Dove body moisturiser and see how i get on.x 🐿🌈💕
Some of Dove is nice, I only use the self tanning one LOL 😋 but all of them needs long time to apsorb and can be greasy....I don't use it that often. I tried the soap too, but it drys my skin on my face extremely out. I use my face honey milk soap, I do make it myself, very easy. And it's nice to your skin. If you interested just Google honey milk soap 😉🌹🌹🌹
Morning to you MELNEL and today I'm asking the pharmasist at my little, local Boots Chemist, whether she can point me in the direction of a.non-greasy after applying, good fragrance free, body moisturiser. One that i can use after showering etc. Aveeno-i agree isn't doing the job after a week of using it and you could well be right in saying it could be the meds we're on etc. Dove- no, I've been put off that brand ........ so it's worth me trying something new but mid-priced. Who'd have thought life could be so exciting, lol 🙈🙉🙊! 🐿🌈💕

Try child's farm. That's the only one I still use regular.
Yes it can be exciting to shop for cosmetic products, special if you didn't find the right one for you. It's expensive. LOL gets never boring LOL 😂👍.
It's not easy to keep your skin soft and healthy.
I remember for 2 years ago we went to Turkey for holiday. I went to a spar one day and had a very nice pampered day.
After all scrubbing and washing I been creamed from neck to toe, wrapped in very thin layer of cloth and stayed in there for 45 min. After it all the cream been scrapped of and my skin felt wonderful soft still we got back Home. I have forgotten to ask what they used because I wanted that again. LOL
But I found out later it was melkfett cream. I couldn't get a pure melkfett here in UK, always brought it in Turkey. It's very nice!!
You can get it here but not as pure u get in Turkey. Happy shopping LOL 😋
Aloe vera. I like this one because it absorbs well and doesn't leave me feeling sticky like some products do.
MELNEL in reply to
Yes I like aloe Vera a lot I bought actually two plants but they still small and growing LOL 😋
It's expensive if you buy pure gel. 🦋🦋🦋
I use an Aloe Vera based cream called Cyclax, it's very good for moisturising and healing bruising caused by my blood thinners.
Try any Aveeno product, look at ingredients first, but I don't think they contain either product. Highly recommended by dermatologist friend, and myself as user with very dry skin.
A little bit of info; Child's farm is sold in most supermarkets such Tesco, Sainsburys . It is also sold on line I buy it for my grandchildren who have eczema dry skin. xx My daughter says its better for their skin than aveeno.
Yes, my daughter uses it on her little ones eczema too. She’s found it to be the best product on the market, having tried most, it’s reasonably priced too.
I most buy it online on boots or eaby.
Yes I mentioned this, I don't like Aveeno. Making my skin even more dry, I believe that was the first, my honey got this for me when I was in hospital. And it's smelled nice, I used it after my shower, 10;min later my skin got very dry and I could peel of my skin so dry was that. Looked like I never used any cream at all. I was quite disappointed with the product. I thought it may has something to do what kind of medication you take that my skin respond like that.
But I tried it later when home and had the same dry skin. Pity actually because this was not cheap, but I gave it to my friend she likes it. LOL
There’s also Ultrabee exeskin which is supposed to be good however a little bit more expensive
Recommend highly by dermatologist.....Cerave....they have everything......and all fragrance free with ceramides, what all skin needs....eczema.....awe....what eczema.....seriously!!!
Forgot to say I also use coconut oil x
