Very very dry skin on face

[KissMeBunty]

Ugh. It's horrible, and has gotten worse. I do everything right- drink loads of water etc. I have tried nivea, aveeno, astral, sudocrem, E45 and coconut and almond oil.
Anyone know of anything that might help me?

Cetaphil rich night cream helps me- I’ve terrible dry skin during pregnancy x

Thank you! Have just ordered some on ebay.

My face was the same now I put a thin layer of vaseline on at night and now my face is so soft and no dry skin .

@KissMeBunty I also use cetaphil! And a No7 exfoliator x

Cetaphil is great as it’s non irritating and non pore clogging . It’s more of a skin treatment cream than a “beauty product” so I tend to trust it more. I wouldn’t use anything else now. There are thicker and thinner creams - I think the night cream is one of the richest

I had this for a while in winter and saw a tip on reddit to layer serum and creams and use Nivea blue as last layer to lock in the moisture. It helped a lot although now my skin is much better. I use rosehip oil instead of serum.

Thank you all!

La Roche Posay toleriane riche is great.

Hylauronic acid under your moisturiser and a weekly moisturising sheet mask are going to be your saviours

I went through a phrase of terribly dry skin on the face and the only thing that worked for me was aqueous cream and a homemade exfoliator of baking powder mixed with a bit of water.

I get the same, with acne break outs thrown in. I have been using drops of youth serum which has made a huge difference. You can get it on offer from body shop at home. I'm not a rep, I just really like the product.

My DH has the same and we are using a small amount of Vaseline before bed (recommended by the pharmacist) and so far it seems to be working

Eminence rosehip whip moisturiser helps with my dry skin.

Avene extremely compensating cream (not aveeno).
