Good moisturizer for face?

I saw Goldie Hawn on Jimmy Kimmel a couple weeks ago and her face had zero wrinkles as in none, not one. I saw her picture a couple days later and you could easily see a face full of wrinkles. So I'm thinking they must use a filtered lens when interviewing some people.

I probably get 1-2 Tblsps of olive oil and other oils just by cooking and eating... salad dressings, nuts, cheeses, olives or mayo or even butter. Just think of all the oily foods we all consume.

Yes, but there are healthy like some of what you listed and they lube the entire body and its organs.

‘Do you exfoliate? When my skin gets especially dry and flaky I gently wash my face with a rough washcloth and apply moisturizer right after, even before my skin dries. I find this helps, and I only do it as needed.’

I find a little oatmeal mixed to a paste with water makes an excellent facial exfoliator, just make sure you massage it gently as it can be slightly abrasive if rubbed too hard, rinse well with lukewarm water followed by a splash of cold, and plenty of moisturiser

I am the queen of the dermatology clinic. My skin is ruined beyond repair from sun damage back in the day. (An Irish gal who thought she would surely eventually tan if she kept at it long enough 😂). Ah me. Well obviously it didn’t happen and at 73 I am paying for it. So anyway, the dermatologist recommends three creams or lotions. 1. Vani Cream 2. Cetaphil, and 3. CeraVe
With CeraVe being his top recommendation as he says “it has the least amount of crap in it.” He also says if your skin isn’t all that dry, use a lotion, if it is use a cream. Drink a lot of water (apparently coffee and Brandy Old Fashions don’t count...bummer! Use makeup or a moisturizer on your face that contains a sunscreen no matter what season it is and regardless if the sun is shining or not, say a prayer and hope for the best 😂. I love this guy and he loves me as my constant skin cancers pay for his kids college education. Hope you find what works for you, but really...don’t buy into the hype of tv and magazine ads.
 
@Marie5656 your original question asked about an inexpensive facial cleanser/moisturizer

I’ve used Ponds facial products for years. It’s still my go-to when I run out out of the really expensive moisturizers that I’m randomly given by clients, sometimes sample sizes they’re given as gifts with larger purchases, sometimes full sized items because they don’t like them, they’ve overbought, changed products or whatever. Sure I’ll take them!! I will never SPEND $175 for a 1 ounce pot of moisturizer, but I will most defensively USE it! 👍😂

Here’s the Ponds website but you can also buy many Ponds products on Amazon.

I always liked Ponds too!!!!
 
Thanks for the advice. I am going to try several of the products you recommended and see what works best for me, I did buy some Aveeno moisturizing cream for my arms and around my nose. Seems to help a lot.
I was considering Ponds...but hesitated as I always considered it a makeup remover, and I do not wear makeup. I may try anyway next time I need something. @Ronni @Kathleen’s Place

There ARE two Ponds products, Marie. One IS a make up remover. Think it has a light green lid. You will want to use the dry skin cream. It has a light blue lid.

@Marie5656 Ponds has been around for forever, and back in the day there were only two Products....a makeup remover and a moisturizer. These days Ponds has a bunch of different skin care products, various levels of moisturizers, eye creams, SPF facial moisturizers, different cleansers, all modestly priced compared to their counterparts.

FYI even makeup removers will do an excellent job of cleaning your skin even if you don’t wear makeup. They are still facial cleansers whether they’re removing makeup or a days worth of the grime, or to freshen up a makeup free face
