Need a new one and am feeling swamped by the choice. I'd like one with an SPF...

I am currently using several different ones- Simple light moisturiser (cheap and absorbs well), Decleor Hydra Floral (lovely smell and feel, not so cheap) and Clarins rejuvenating something or other, had a small tube in xmas gift set and am just trying to use it up. have no idea if any of them have an spf but would expect the more expensive ones do.

Roche Posay

IMO they're all the same. I use whatever mil buys. Olay garnier etc. have had Lancôme Estée Lauder too.

You'd night as well just use any. Or E45

Boots No 7 LIft and Luminate serum and day and night cream

NoWayNoHow · 24/04/2012 22:27

I used Nivea Q10 day cream with SPF15. Absolutely love it, it's incredibly rich, not at all greasy, and goes on really smoothly and easily.

Have also tried Garnier Ultralift, but it was really thick and I felt like I could have piled it on with a trowel, and it still wouldn't have moisturised my skin. Very dry.

I recently tried that Nivea Q10 day cream, the new pore perfecting one. I liked it after using a free sample so I bought the 2 pots for £12 in Boots - bargain! However, be warned that it has a funny consistency which kind of makes little balls on your skin... so I can't wear it with makeup. I have had to relegate it to night cream. Shame, as I loved it the first few days. I love the typical Nivea smell!

My usual is Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Gel and Clinique Moisture Surge, which I love but it's quite expensive at £30 for a 50 ml pot. Not actually sure if they have SPF as I get my SPF from primer and foundation.

Olay regenerist, spf 15.

GodisaDJ · 25/04/2012 04:11

No. 7 day cream protect and perfect

Love it.

Aldi's Lacura Renew Daycream with Q10. I think it has an SPF. It's one of very few that don't make my skin break out and I find it as effective as some of the more expensive creams (which do make my skin break out). If I can't get a hold of it, I just use a few drops of coconut/olive or almond oil and spread this over my damp face after washing.

Skin Food New Zealand - it's fab stuff.

I've used Clinique for about 20 years.
My current favourites are Youth Surge and Super Defence- both have high SPFs and come in different formulations for skin types.
