Moisturiser - if you had a limited budget what would you suggest?

[CaviarAndCigarettes]

My thirties have crept up on me and I need a decent.. or at least affordable.. moisturiser. My skin is generally dry, can be oily around the T zone during TOTM.
My husband is currently the sole wage earner so although I have some money to myself I'm looking under the £10 mark. Not looking for miracles, just hoping for a decent no frills product that will prevent if not cure!

Weleda skin food light

I should clarify, I'm talking about a facial moisturiser.

@hallodarknessmyoldfriend gosh my update looked really rude there as I hadn't seen your comment! Apologies!

But thank you for your suggestion, i have never heard of this. Is it a facial moisturiser?

I use Avene, it might be £12, it's sometimes in the sale, and often 3 for 2 at Boots.

I used to spend a bit on face moisturisers until I discovered Lidl and Aldi’s products. They are genuinely brilliant. They each do a few different ones, depending on how «mature» etc your skin is, and they’re only a couple of quid so I recommend having a play about with different ones from there & I promise you’ll be impressed!

I use Aveeno on my face for years, I have dry skin and it's the best product I have ever tried. It's a decent price too and on offer lots.

Late 40s, sensitive dry skin with oily T zone here. I've always been strict and fussy about skincare regime. Discovered a few years ago Nivea nourishing night creme for combination skin. Love it and it is £2.00 at Asda! That said, I suspect think key drivers of a glowing complexion are drinking enough water, exercise, fruit and veg and staying out of sun. Good luck trying some suggestions out OP..

I switched to cruelty free last year so this instantly limits some options.

I’ve been really happy with Superdrug own brand stuff. Either their E45 or vitamin E stuff.

Ah shoot, it's currently 15.50

When it's in the sale, it's brilliant.

Superdrug vitamin E or Nivea Soft

I think Superdrug’s b radiant range is v v good. They have a few (b nourished etc) but I think it’s b radiant for 30s skin. So go be 🌟

I’ve tried a lot of the bells and whistles stuff and come back to Nivea q10. Often available around the £5 mark.

Nivea. Always go back to it if I'm tempted away. Aldi tempts me away... used Clinique before kids. Would still choose Nivea. Always on offer somewhere 👍

I use lidi or Aldi products. They are wonderful and di the job

I've used Nivea Q10 for years, its great and very reasonable. I used to use all sorts of expensive shit until I couldn't afford to and tbh Nivea is as good as anything else

Another vote for Aldi caviar. Brilliant stuff. There was some investigation done a few years back & it's got the same ingredients as La Prarie (?! This may be hearsay!) True or not it's an absolute bargain for the quality.

Nivea soft

I use the L'oreal Expert Anti wrinkle ones, buy them when Boots have 3 for 2 offers.

Simple water boost gel cream. Inexpensive, really hydrating while helping with oiliness and doesn’t make oily bits any oilier!

Aldi! Way better than creams 50 times the price

The Inkey turmeric , my oily sensitive skin LOVES it, it's around £7.99

Aldi caviar here too its £7 or £8 and great quality. Also mid 30's with similar skin to OP.

I agree with @muckyplucky love Aldi! I use the lacura rejuvelate day cream it's lush!
