I need a non-SPF moisturiser CHEAP but non-comedogenic

Any recommendations?
It's for night-time hence no SPF needed.
Not sure it has to be an actual night cream though (is there a difference?)
My skin is combination with tendency to break out periodically.
I was using the Vit E Superdrug one but it was causing spots.

Thanks!

day cream/night cream all the same - do nothing except possibly make skin more comfortable.

I use Nivea when I have an itchy nose, £2 a tube or less. No SPF of course.

Nivea Q10. Really good IME.

How cheap does it need to be? La Roche Posay Toleriane is great for combination skin and all round brilliant in my opinion. It's about £11 IIRC.

I use Avene, don't remember exactly what it is called. They have several ranges. All their products are non comedogenic. I think it's about £11 but it does last me a long time. It's sometimes on 3 for 2 in Boots.

Also I beleive that all La Roche Posay is non comedogenic.

The trouble is, there are very few non comedogenic ranges. Not sure of any at lower price brackets.

Simple on special at superdrug

Boots' own-brand knockoff Simple range (similar white and green packaging, called Simply Pure or something similar) is weirdly much better than Simple - it's not the same formula and much more gentle. Their non-SPF moisturiser is good, as is Boots Essentials Fragrance Free stuff.

Thank you!
I think £11 would be a good maximum spend for me. Trying to spend less than £18 Eucerin cream I have been using.
Great recommendations - I appreciate it.

Try La Roche Posay Effaclar H, or one of the other LRP moisturisers.

I use baby lotion. Cheap as chips and fine for my skin.
