Anyone have miracle solutions for dry, sensitive skin?

[Elle48]

Incredibly sick and tired of trying different products for dry skin. I know every skin type is different but I was wondering if anyone, in the same boat, could recommend a good product? Or overall solution for that matter. Have tried Estee Lauder Even Skin tone Illuminator but I don't think this has done much for my skin tone to be honest!

Thanks!!

For your face or whole body? For body I use Aveeno. On face I use Nivea.
Had a facial on the Origins counter in John Lewis once which really hydrated my skin - couldn't afford many products, but they had good gentle moisturiser. You could go and ask and see if they'll do one for you? Just thirty minutes of intense moisturisation seemed to make a massive difference

Clarins facial oil for dry skin (think it's called Santal) is doing wonders for mine at the moment. It takes a few uses to notice the difference, but when I went away on holiday without it my flaky patches came back and I realised how much it was helping.

Aveeno on the body.

Liz Earle for the face.

Aloe vera gel, then when that has dried, oil on the top (almond, wheatgerm, anything! But it must be 100% natural.)

This works on face and body. Add oil to the water when you have a bath, do this at least once a week. And finally, if your skin needs an extra boost waitrose bottom butter.

Not very exciting or glamourous I'm afraid! But it's tried and tested by me and it's the one routine I'm guarenteed to have no problems with, and everyone tells me how great my skin looks when I use this routine.

Exactly what redhappy says.

I wasted decades spending a fortune on every top end sensitive skin thing available. This is SO cheap (well relatively), but my skin is transformed.

I'm using this gel and this oil. But there are loads out there.

Clarins Gentle Foaming Cleanser for Dry & Sensitive Skin. Fabulous stuff been using it for years, a tube lasts for months. Make sure it's the one for dry/sensitive as they do others.

For shifting eye makeup, Boots Fragrance Free Eye Make up Remover. Cheap as chips at around £1.50 a bottle & often on 3for2.
