Moisturizer Answers

I am 23 years old & would like to start maintenance of my youth while its still here. Any recommendation on a great collagen cream for the face and/or facial wash that I can buy at the drug store. I want something affordable of coarse, but I am also open to higher end, expensive creams as well.

My face feels dry & tight under the eyes.

Yes, you should use a moisturizer. An oil free one would be best; try to use all water based product. Also, you may be seeing more oil b/c you are using a too harsh cleanser. When you over dry the skin it will try to compensate for the loss & over produce oils. You should use a use lotions b/c they add moisture & oil just trys to keep that moisture in, there is a big difference; this is why people with oily skin still get some dry flaky spots. Oil can also block the water based moisture from being able to penetrate the skin thus keeping it dry but oily. Oil is just the body’s way of trapping in what little moisture we have.
It may sound strange for a guy but if this information doesn’t help you could buy oil blotters for the excess oil through out the day. Just use them when you go to the restroom that way no one will know.

Depending on how bad your eczema is, shea butter & vaseline is a good combination Just before bed, put those on. If it’s on your hands or feet, wrap them in Saran wrap, then put a mitten or sock over it. This will keep you from getting goop all over yourself when you sleep.
If it’s mild, I’ve found that Cetaphil lotion works well. It’s non-allergenic, unscented, & has a lot of moisturizing power in it.

Haha. No, it’s just that they make the men’s look manlier so that they will not be too ashamed to buy it.

or putting the moisturizer on first before the foundation? i do it all the time & my skin looks perfectly clear. it’s just that it’s really dry.

I have white legs & summer is coming up so im going to be wearing shorts to school. So i want a bit of a tan. But i’m not going to go & lie out in the sun just to get a tan & risk getting skin cancer. So i thought about the moisturisers that give you a tan. But i was wondering are there any side affects from using them? & are they just a rub on & it rubs of in the shower or when it gets wet? Thanks

I am 15.I am using Vaseline intensive care healthy white skin lightning body milk on my face because no other moisturizer suits me well.now , is there any problem if i put body milk or lotion on my face?Please reply & plz don’t give any rude answers.

im 18 & i do a lot of chores around the house, & for that my skin is horrible! my hands & feet looks like its 30 because of the wrinkles & dryness. my body has stretch marks & it’s also very dry! i’ve been searching to find a good moisturizer out there to cure the dryness of my whole body. does anybody have any great moisturizer they’d like to share with me? please! thanks for your time

am i missing out if i use body mosturizers for my face such as aveeno daily or vasilin original?

Try wet mud……

As much as I love The Body Shop body butters (mmm almond one), they are quite expensive! Are there cheaper substitute moisturisers that are just as good?

It depends on how dry your skin is. Most people would be able to get away with just using a night cream, but an additional moisturizer would be a good idea if you are very dry.

Ive hard there are different products that gradually build up to give a natural looking tan…..its like a moisturiser at the same time I think…erm if there is,what do you reccomend? Im pale skinned & want a healthy natural looking tan,thats easy to apply. I am not asking about FAKE TAN.

I was using topical Erythromycin & Differin (Adapalene) but I stopped because they made my skin dry even though they worked really well. But I want to start using them again.
Is there a good moisturizer that I can use with my prescription & still get clear skin?
Thanks!

There is always the possibility. Not all germs if you mean bacteria & viruses are bad. Also the older the product is (from its actual production) the greater the chance for germs.Some germs live in a dry environment others in a moist environment. The worst thing is a completely sterile environment if it’s actually possible to have an Absolutely sterile environment out side a complete vacuum.

Because I dont want to have to remove my moisturizer again so is it ok just to leave the burning toner on my face all night till tomorrow & i wont used it again, by the way its from garnier & claimed to tighten pores but it said there is zinc being added to it.

I don’t want something that will cost me loads & I also live in the UK
