Best Moisturiser, light but effective and not too costly!

[BaconAndAvocado]

Just used up my Liz Earle moisturiser, it was very gorgeous. Light but worked really well on my 47 yo skin. But rather pricey.

Anyone know of any other fab moisturisers for under £10 ?

I have combination skin.

Haven't tried it myself yet but Nivea rich moisturising day cream has been featured in a few prominent beauty youtubers 'favourites' videos. guilty pleasure viewing

At £3 it would be worth a shot!

I was going to suggest LE until I read the OP. Aldi moisturiser is good but if doesn't have the lightness of LE.

I'm a big Liz Earle fan myself but don't use her cream everyday. I find Nivea Light day cream (in a tube) is just as good if not better (skin seems more hydrated for longer) and it's so cheap (£3ish). I sometimes use the rich version at night.

Just realised I x posted with another Nivea recommendation!

I really rate the Avene range and it's sometimes on 3 for 2 in boots. Not Nivea cheap but not LE prices either.

I like Nivea soft
Soap and glory For Daily Youth - often in 3for2 in Boots

But I prefer la Roche Posay range

Olay beauty fluid - I use the one for sensitive skin, day and night. Have done for 20+ years. Am told my skin looks younger than it should.

Just out of the price guide, but not much, is the wonderful la roche posay baume b5. Everyone should try it, it's great.

My top tip with moisturiser is to buy one tub of the pricey stuff, and then replenish it with samples, like the ones you get as gift with purchase - you can usually get these off ebay and if you insist on them being sealed then you'll know they've not been tested.

Elemis marine cream is £££ in the shops but they are always giving away samples of 15ml tubes with magazines, so ebay is awash with them, and I just buy these to replenish my pot.

Blue tub nivea is the best! Beats all the other creams.

I nick dp's Nivea Soft (white tub) quite a lot, it's lovely.

I use Astral at night which is cheap as chips but it's too heavy for day cream.

Have also been using the Waitrose Pure range which is absolutely great - often 3 for 2 as well.

Am 43 and my skin definitely looks younger. A bunch of 16-year-old girls told me the other day they thought I was 'about 30ish' so I reckon if teenagers think I look young maybe the creams are doing something

I use Aldi serum and avon anew moisturiser. I'm nearly happy not having make up on. I love the Aldi serum

Boots Botanics has some very reasonable
prices and I've liked almost everything over tried. Am using the Clary Sagw moisturiser at the minute and think it was £4!

Sage

Nivea Q10. Much lighter than the other Nivea products - it's not greasy and doesn't drag against the skin, but it leaves your skin feeling really elastic and hydrated. £5-10 depending on whether or not it's on special offer. It usually is.

Cerave. Amazon.

Another one loving Olay Beauty Fluid. My skin loves it.

I started a similar thread a while back and La Roche Posay was recommended. I have the Hydraphase light (which I bought instead of the rich because of my rubbish French) but am really impressed with it. It's very moisturising and not sticky/greasy. It is out of your price range though by about £5.

I have sometimes strayed away from Olay Beauty Fluid Sensitive , but I always go back to it. Comes in a huge (200 ml) bottle for about £6.

Personally I hate putting anything highly fragranced on my skin / near my eyes (like Nivea blue tub - shudder). This one is unfragranced.

Love Nivea Blue myself, but it can be a bit on the heavy side. For day I use Kheils I'm in my 50's, it does the job and a small bottle lasts me 6 months.

I'm a big fan of Eucerin 5% replenishing day cream. £11. Changed my life.

Nivea Soft. White tub. Never looked back (and I used to buy £30+ moisturiser).

I also use Boots Traditiobal Glycerin and Rose Water as a moisturiser

Look at Superdrug's own-brand range - some fantastic ones eg the Optimum range, often on special eg buy one get one free

I recently started using Superdrug's B range, which has 4 different 'levels' according to age. It seems very good, excellent reviews, and always on offer at about £6 cream, £7serum.
