Am feeling old today and my makeup is showing up dry patches. I need to start moisturising.

Any recommendations?

Also my skin can be quite sensitive...

Nivea Soft. In fact there was a thing on TV recently comparing it with a Clinique one and another expensive one and the Nivea one was proven to be most effective.

Another vote for Aldi Lacura here.
I bought the glycolic pads which I use to take off my make up as well as exfoliating and I put the miracle cream on at night.
Cheap as chips and immediately noticed the difference.
I also bought steam cream the other day which is a natural multipurpose cream. I'm using it on my face in the morning as it soaks in faster than the miracle cream. It comes in a lovely tin and smells very botanical. £12 though so at the upper end of 'cheap'.

@TanselleTooTall honestly no idea what makes astral so good but it is!

I've tried Clinique, clarions, rituals, lush, Eve loam, and countless other more expensive brands and astral is my favourite. I would say it is thick so perhaps not suited to oily skin.

My grandma uses it too and she is 85 and looks amazing so maybe they are on to something 😂

The your good skin range in boots.

Often on 3 for 2 or another offer. The night cream is brilliant.

The Aldi stuff made my face sore
