Face moisturizer?
So I figured the stylists (being the skin care divas they are  ) would be best to ask about this. I need a new face moisturizer!! I had been using clinque's "Dramatically different moisturizing lotion," but lately, my skin has been really oily, and I'm finding that it's just making it worse. So, what's a good moisturizer that will keep my skin looking supple, but not greasy? *oh, and uh...I want my non oily skin back...Ideas?* Mar 21 06 12:08 am Link I dont know if this works but I have oily skin too but i like ponds daily moiturizer...i know i spelled that wrong...i like it because once you get it on your face it isnt heavy or makes your face feel greasy....its lite.....and leaves a clean look on your face....it come in the ponds lil white containter with a blue top ohh sorry lol...im not a stylist lol Mar 21 06 12:12 am Link La Mer oil absorbing lotion- expensive, but sooooo worth every penny. (you can get samples on ebay- try seller strawberryapple her stuff is authentic...plus with la mer a little goes a long way) Mar 21 06 12:49 am Link Try Origins "Matte Scientist" which is best for Oily skin. You can go here: http://www.origins.com/templates/produc … ID=PROD155 My hubby uses it and he loves it (but shhh dont tell anyone that he moisturizes lol) Mar 21 06 08:29 am Link For my shoots I use Benefit's Dr. Feelgood. Foundation glides on after that without being greasy or dry! Mar 21 06 09:45 am Link Naomi wrote: Really? I have yet to try my Dr. Feelgood...I always thought it looked too greasy...will play with. ^_^ Mar 21 06 09:49 am Link Pazza_x_Trucco wrote: Really? I hate the dr feelgood- and I wanted it for a long time before I got it. Smashbox primer is better- or velvet skincoat by dhc (for me). Mar 21 06 01:08 pm Link I have combination skin. I've been using "Murad" for about 2 yrs now. Every once in a while I'll switch to something else but I always come back to Murad. I like that it's very light on the skin. I use it before makeup is applied for a shoot and it's wonderful. I'm dating a Dermatologist and of course he says most moisturizers and "over the counter" facial wash is JUNK. All I know is, Murad products work for me!!!!!! Caroline Mar 21 06 01:16 pm Link my favorite is pure shea butter.apply to a clean face,sponge off the best ev Mar 21 06 01:23 pm Link There is a site called makeupalley.com that has reviews of just about every product you can think of- I usually consult it before major purchases. (and this site for my kit!) Mar 21 06 01:24 pm Link Anyone here seen NIP/TUCK last season? Will never look at spa moisturizers the same way again. Mar 21 06 01:24 pm Link Michael David Gallego wrote: Great answer- forgot all about that because it is such a staple!! I have a stick of pure shea butter in my kit and I can use it as moisturizer on all skin types (it is the best thing I've found for flakey skin or redness), I even use it under the eyes. It seems oily, but it seeps right in. Mar 21 06 01:28 pm Link Jessica Steele wrote: Just a little with a make-up sponge! Mar 21 06 01:31 pm Link Naomi wrote: Everyone on makeupalley loves it- pretty much the same thoughts- once you learn to apply it correctly it's supposed to be a dream. I like my mistake proof, no brainer silicone primer though. Mar 21 06 01:43 pm Link i am a fan of makeunder or laura mercier primer.

Mar 21 06 04:18 pm Link Really, a dematologist is best qualified to answer this. Mine actually said Oil of Olay was about the best thing I could use on my face (but I have dry skin). Go figure. The moral here it's not always going to be the priciest stuff that will work the best for you. Mar 21 06 05:33 pm Link theda wrote: As a model not MUA(lol) , for myself ;good old fashion Ponds. My mom made me use it since I was 12. Mar 21 06 07:19 pm Link Thanks to everyone for the informative replies. I'll have to give some of them a try! Mar 22 06 12:40 am Link I like the kiel's face fuel. It's supposed to be for guys but whatev. It has a nice cooly feel to it sops up the oil and leaves the skin nice and smooth. Mar 22 06 01:26 am Link Oh well when I read this post I was going to say Clinique, what I use. But seeing that you don't like the stuff let me think. I've heard origins makes some good products. A lot of my friends use that brand. Mar 22 06 01:42 am Link |
