Advice - moisturiser for older skin

9 replies

Hello all!

DM would like some luxury skincare for Christmas (moisturiser mainly) - she is 74 and has dry, quite sensitive skin. Any recommendations?

Not luxury but Aldi's Lacura range is excellent

Neals Yard Frankincense moisturiser is lovely and has rave reviews from older ladies.

It is lovely. If it doesn't agree with her, you could use it

I agree that Neal's Yard Frankincense is superb. I've used it since my late 20s.

Elemis Marine Cream smells gorgeous (and I've just succumbed to the QVC offer as I do every year) but hand on heart, I have dry skin and EMC is not really much cop for that.

L'Occitane Divine is divine.

Liz Earle Superskin is also lovely- especially the neroli scented one.

Clarins nutri lumiere is lovely.

The Clarins recommendation has reminded me of another one I love- Lancome Hydra Zen.
A creamy gel which smells gorgeous and seems to really soothe.

Embryolisse

Lisa Eldridge used it on her DM recently which reminded me of it. It's good for dry sensitive mature skin

Second L'Occitane Divine. I find it a bit too rich personally but would be great for mature skin types
