Hi, I am currently sampling Diors moisturizer that's suppose to hydrate you for 24 hours. I like it so far, but it's very costly. I have tried different expensive products like Lancome and Estee but it's just not practical.

Let me know what works for you guys, for dry - combination skin, if I use too much heavy stuff, my face gets all greasy.

Thanks.

I know it's cheap and doesn't have the elegance of Guerlain or La Mer...but it works: St. Ives Oil-Free Moisturizer. It costs $4 but really does the job for dry areas without getting disgusting. Plus--and this is a big plus if you have sensitive skin--it is fragrance free.

If you want a REALLY indepth review, check out what I wrote in July 2002 for epinions:

It's one of the few products that ALL reviewers recommended!

Thanks Lyris... the whole idea is to find something that works well that costs less. Paying $45.00 for a small moisturizer is a bit much.

I loved what you wrote and I am glad you mentioned the cheeks part. Thats where I need it most!!!

A CVS is opening near my house! I can't wait. I love Walgreens and Rite-Aid also.

PS. I just found it on drugstore.com for $2.99!! I hope they have it at Rite-Aid or Walgreens... I don't know where CVS is around my area and the one next to my house isn't open yet.

Check out Biotherm.
They are a well known brand in Europe, very nice and much less than Dior, Lancome, etc.
Biotherm is in department stores and is owned now by L'Oreal, they have great men's products too.
They have a fukll line of different products, all great - even the sensitive skin line.
Information is the key to making good decisions - share what you know with others.

You should try the Oxy Acne Vanishing Cream. You apply it after you wash your face. It prevents oil and clears acne at the same time.

well i think the best oil free moisterizer has to be nuetragena oil free moisterizer. they have one for about every skin type, combination, sensitive and more. It cost about $10 but well worth the money
