At the age of 50, now i suddenly feel my skin very dry.

Which body moisturiser is really good?

I’m an absolute fiend for luxury £££ beauty products, but have honesty found Nivea’s Rich Nourishing Body Lotion to quench my skin better than any other moisturiser. My skin looks hydrated and nourished for 12+ hours after use.

CereVe. The lotion in the square bottle or the thicker one if you need more.

Another vote for Nivea in the dark blue bottle. I have tried loads over the years and most of them expensive ones because I love spendy beauty products and always receive them as birthday gifts, but this one is the best I’ve used. It is so moisturising and quick to dry which I love because there is nothing worse than having to wait for ages for moisturiser to soak in before getting dressed. I’ll never use an expensive body moisturiser again.

CeraVe Moisturizing Cream.

Mixa body milk or cream. The skin on my body is super dry, and this has sorted it right out. It has 10% urea in it so smooths all the bumps too. And its really cheap.

Aveeno dermexa.

I can’t use anything fancy or too perfumed as it gives me eczema on my eyelids.
